In brief

Red vs White vs Blue is a block wargame about the four year long struggle in Russia after the 1917 October Revolution. One player controls the Red (Bolshevik) forces, the other the Whites (anti-Bolshevik, a collection of different factions). One unique aspect of the game that there are also Blue blocks: these represent the Separatist forces (e.g. the Baltic Republics) that want to remain neutral and independent.

Unit types include Infantry, Cavalry, Tanks, Armored Trains, specialized White units (Cossacks, Volunteers, Czechoslovak Legion, Baltic Germans, Finns etc.) and several leaders for all three sides.

Both players have their own deck of 16 action cards, from which they draw 7 and use 5 per turn. The cards govern the players' actions (e.g. Comintern, leader activations, recruitment, terror). The game is 10 turns long.
