What I want to see is a 'realistic' White Russia AAR.
Go with as chaotic a democracy as possible. How's THIS for a Russia AAR:
After Kerensky, pick the "Aristocrats in the senate elect Grand Duke Dimitri"... but DON'T try to restore the monarchy. Play Russia as insanely isolationist, caught up in internal power-struggles, and downright. Self-destructive.
Purge your army at the least opportune time.
Decide that both Central Planning AND Free Market are too radical for you.
Don't move troops around or redeploy them in any way unless partisans or war FORCES you to do so.
You can spend lots of IC on consumer goods (good shopping in St. Petersburg)... but not reinforcements or upgrades (until war).
Select Felix Yusupov, the dilettantish center of the St. Petersburg social scene as your prime minister...
Brutishly overrun your enemies with straight-forward infantry assaults, taking horrendous casualties, and refuse to dedicate overly much to modern units.
Try to survive the Soviet revolt & ensuing chaos despite picking the WORST possible event choices at every opportunity.
Write the entire thing from the perspective of a brilliant behind-the-scenes aristocratic woman (cousin of Dimitri) with out-sized influence that's smart enough to foil Dimitri's monarchial ambitions (just going to get family members killed, the dolt) and refuses to reinstate Okrhana (parties are SO dull when everyone fears secret police) or turn to the Orthodox church (pheh, smelly old men with no style and no idea a smart woman can exist) but is totally blind when it comes to a semi-isolationist aristocratic-centered foreign policy - less so domestic policy, where no new factories can be built, but infrastructure (corrupt profiteering) and consumer goods (finery) can be produced.
Write THAT Russia AAR, and watch teh accolades roll in.
