Russian Civil WarRussian Civil War
Designer: Lloyd Krassner A free historical card game simulating the Russian Civil War. One player is the Red/Communist, the other player is the White/Tsarist. The war was fought mainly between the 'Reds' who were the communists and revolutionaries, and the 'Whites' who were the monarchists, conservatives, liberals and socialists who opposed the Bolshevik Revolution. Also, a group of nationalist and anarchist movements known as the 'Greens', or sometimes the Black Army for the latter, played a much smaller part in the war, harrying both the Reds and the Whites, and sometimes even each other. In addition, the Entente and some other countries intervened on the side of the Whites, which aggravated the civil war. |
