I´m starting a 1928 game as posted in another thread.

In March 1928 on Trotsky´s request, Stalin meet with the dissident outside of Lenin's dacha, later known as Gorki Leninskije. Exactly what was being said can only be speculated upon. But through cryptic
notes from Stalin, interviews with employees and
excerpts from Stalin's daughter Svetlana Iosifovna Allilujeva´s diary, the following is known.
• Trotsky is trying to make one last attempt to get Stalin to
abandon his policy of "socialism in one country" in favor
of a world wide revolution.
• Trotsky put forward some information he received from loyal
subordinates during his tenure as president of the Soviet
electro-technical board. An object with fantastic properties had been
found. Other objects with weird features has been hinted upon.
• Trotsky put forward a new theory about humanity and how different groups should relate to each other. This new information, completely overthrows the foundation that both he and Stalin were brought up on.
• Trotsky implies there is more information. But he doessn´t want to share this before he is sure Stalin knows the ramifications of what has to be done.
Shortly after this meeting, Trotsky is exiled to Alta Alma...
Here, the story begins.

Anatoly Zelmanov
The leader of the group is Anatoly Zelmanov. He is, in many
ways, a man who is out on deep water. It´s his
high personal standards that ultimately will determine
his fate.
Orina Borichevskaja
The group's logistics manager is Orina Borichevskai. She is
a woman with great organizational skills and her
passionate commitment to communism is both her
strength and weakness.
Tanya Lizabeta Gaznayeva
The group's science officer, Tanya Lizabeta Gaznayeva
is a scientific genius whose exceptional knowledge
in a variety of fields makes her both perfect and direct danger to
the mission.
Feodor Rahulin
The group political officer is Feodor Rahulin. He is in all
honesty, a poor sod whose lack of skills in combination
with his father's high position have put him in a
situation he can´t handle.
