Is it possible to include a famous West Siberian Anti-Communist Uprising(late 1920-late 1922) in Game or it already present? It is huge scale(up to 150.000 participators) peasant uprising affected area from Ekaterinburg to Omsk and from Artic Ocean to China. [url]http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Западно-Сибирское_восстание_(1921—1922)[/url]). It can be triggered after several turns after taking Omsk by Reds.
If it needed I can search for OOB of rebels and names of their leaders in book "The Siberian Vendée" and other sources.

I concur this suggestion. It seems to me that Siberia and Far East is a kind of "forgotten front" in RUS.
The only correction is that the uprising broke out after more than a year of Soviet rule in the region. Omsk was captured by Reds in November 1919. Large scale insurrection started in February 1921 and reached its peak by March-April 1921.

Good title as it was against republic dictatorship too (and wheat monopoly shows bolsheviks were capitalists).
However the siberian was far less a story where mass paesants ally with monarchists used to leading.

Why not.
This is not our priority (we first want to improve other parts of the game like the Anarchists and the Polish in the GC), but we could consider this afterwards

You know, the Green uprisings in the Red core areas are already extremely vexing. In the last game I played as the Reds, I think there may have been 150,000 Green troops up against my boys in the vicinity of Moscow-Yaroslavl-Kazan-Tula. I bet the same thing would happen "organically" if the Reds get to control central Siberia for a year or so.

Yeah, I didn't know the greens got so powerful. I finished my first GC as the southern Whites last night. They had militia everywhere (probably 20-30 stacks or so) in my regions, but there was a 1000 power green army just north of Moscow when I got there plus they owned most of the territory in between Saratov and Moscow. I did see a message saying the green uprising's had spread to Omsk in 1921 so maybe it is already included.
