	Heroes of the (Russian) Civil War is a skirmish game to re-create small scale battles from the Russian Civil War. Included as part of the rules are five unique historical scenarios to get you up and playing! The rules find their foundation in Herb Gundt's & Ivor Janci's superb Brother Against Brother rules. With Ivor's acceptance, I've published these rules separately. Details are below. *Heroes of the (Russian) Civil War Rules set is available for free online (click here to direct download from the Strategic Outlook Institute website).*
