Corps to Army level, 36 mis/60 kms per hex, 20-day turns, no Finnish front. Russian units start face down, and there are 3 different order of battle possibilities: 1. Historical - 3/6 chance, as I remember. 2. From Budyonny's Stables - 2/6 chance: What if the Bolshevik traditionalists *had* completely overthrown Tukhachevsky's modern, mobile doctrine *and*...
