The '''West Russian Revolutionary Front''' is one of the warlord states that exist in [[West Russia]]. They border [[Onega]] to the west, the Arctic Ocean to the north, [[Vorkuta]] and [[Yugra]] to the east, and the [[Order of St. George]], [[Komi]], [[Vologda]] and [[Reichskommissariat Moskowien]] to the south.
 
The Front itself is a Soviet military government that was formed following the collapse of the [[Soviet Union]] at the hands of [[Greater Germanic Reich|Germany]]. They were responsible for launching the [[West Russian War]] that almost saw the Nazis driven out of Russia, but internal disunity subsequently led to the Front's defeat and the loss of most of their territory.
Line 29 ⟶ 80:
 
=== In-Game Description ===
''As the Soviet Union burned, its loyal redRed armyArmy refused to yield to the German invaders. In the dark days after the Union's collapse, Marshal Alexander Yegorov rallied the surviving troops, and founded the West Russian Revolutionary Front to carry on the struggle against fascism. Striking back at the occupiers, the Front was at the cusp of victory when they were driven back at the last minute, nearly shattering it permanently.''
 
''Yet the Front lives on. From the city of Arkhangelsk, its grizzled veterans stand at the ready, preparing for the time when they drive the fascists from the Motherland and rebuild the Soviet Union anew. However, Yegorov is not a young man, and his final hour draws closer ever day. It is a moment his generals are eagerly watching for, each of them planning to seize his torch for themselves that they ebbe the one who shall lead the Front to victory.''
 
== History ==
Line 38 ⟶ 89:
The Great Patriotic War against the fascist invaders cost the Soviet people everything, and then some. The Nazis employed unimaginable cruelty in a crusade against Soviet civilization itself, to the extent where no single man or woman couldn't name someone close to them who had been cruelly torn from them by the hands of the Hitlerites.
 
In the muddled anarchy after the collapse of central government authority, the remnants of the Red Army in the west reorganised in the city of Kuybyshev under the leadership of Grand Marshal [[Alexander Yegorov]]. Across the former territory of the Soviet Union, loyal Red Army units flocked to his banner, including the Sixth and Ninth Armies under Marshals [[Mikhail Tukhachevsky|Mikhail Nikolayevich Tukhachevsky]] and [[Georgy Zhukov|Georgy Konstantinovich Zhukov]], respectively. With these powerful mechanized forces and an alliance with prominent political figures, the newly formed West Russian Revolutionary front was able to exert authority over all of the shattered remnants of the Union which remained west of the Urals.
 
=== The Strike... ===
Line 44 ⟶ 95:
 
=== ...and Retreat ===
Riding high on this wave of success, few had noticed the cracks that had formed within the Front's political structure over the years. The exact cause of the disintegration of the Front during the West Russian War remains unknown, with theories ranging from an attempted seizure of power by [[Mikhail Suslov|Suslov]] to the breakdown of the critically overextended command structure. Facing threats to the security of the military leadership in the face of a renewed German offensive employing the collaborationist forces of the [[Samara|Russian Liberation Army]] and [[Vladimir III|Vladimir Romanov]], the government was relocated to the city of Syktyvkar. Following the political turmoil, and the string of defeats at the hands of the enemy, the [[Komi|Republic of Komi]] seceded from the Front, and the subsequent string of defections and secessions marked the end of the West Russian War and the death of the West Russian Revolutionary Front.
 
=== Living On ===
Line 56 ⟶ 107:
=== And Now... ===
Now, in 1962, the Front's situation is a precarious one. Beyond the territories controlled by Arkhangelsk lie statelets run by illegitimate secessionists, collaborators, Tsarists, and other contenders. Only time will tell if the Front will regain its position as the defender of Western Russia, and, potentially, reunite the Motherland, to avenge those who fell and deliver justice upon Germany.

|'''Luftwaffe Terror Bombing'''
|''With depressing regularity, Luftwaffe bombers from the airfields of Reichskommissariat Moskowien fly over the warlord states of western Russia, bombing everything they can see and affecting nearly every aspect of Russian life as a result. The only salvation comes in the form of the Free Aviators, who strive to intercept them at every opportunity. If not for them, the situation in Russia would be far more dire.''

== Trivia ==
 
* Prior toBefore the ''Toolbox Theory'' update, the Front was led at game start by Kliment Voroshilov. This was likely changed because Voroshilov was very loyal to Stalin, as well as the fact that in the path for Bukharin in the base game's ''No Step Back'' DLC, if the player opted to overthrow Stalin in a civil war, Yegorov would be guaranteed to defect to the player's side if he wasn't purged.
