My guess is that they decided it was too close to Germany. Almost certainly this is why they’ve vandalised the map to give East Prussia to Poland. Also Moscow is more central and so, with plodding infantry movement, its needed for Russia to be able to reinforce the southern front with new units.

@Texas:

I believe the basic line of thought is, the sooner Russia loses units, the sooner they are eliminated from the game. Making a stand in Poland causes Russia to begin losing units turn 1, not to mention Germany has a pretty short supply line there. Russia will lose its units on the defensive anyway, but if you can delay it until turn 3, 4, 5… the longer they will be around.

Good post this is very true

AH stacks in Galatia AH1 and attacks Romania with whatever can get there but cannot get to Galatia. Also attack Serbia obviously and I think you have to hold off on Venice till AH2 or so
Russia is more important than Italy, especially early on

Okay, so we triggered a Russian Revolution with Russia holding Turkey

They probably should have, but they didn’t, so as the rules read right now (and even as they read in the book) there are plenty of situations when the Russian player might voluntarily choose not to counterattack a province because the Revolution is preferable to the capture of Moscow from an Allied standpoint.

At least they fixed the other problems with the Russian Revolution as written in the rulebook.

Is it possible to keep Russia in the war?

Russia starts with a lot of units. At first it doesn’t look like much until you start mobilizing those minor powers. I need to play another few games tho.
