The passing of Premier Romanov
A year ago the Soviet Premier, Alexander Romanov passed away at the age of 72, survived by his wife, Catherine.

P remier Romanov came to power after Stalin's death, just after the USSR surrendered to the Allied Forces. He had been on good terms with the Allied Forces and the countries they represented. Premier Romanov was instrumental in brokering many beneficial deals, including the easing of sanctions, the rebuilding of the Red Army for National security purposes, and much needed infusions of cash to help rebuild Soviet infrastructure and research facilities. However, his apparent alliance with the Allied Forces made him a very controversial Premier. He was frequently accused of being the puppet, or pet, of the West, by members inside and outside of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). There were claims he was working for the US Government, the sworn enemy of the USSR. There are unconfirmed reports that Romanov had the Allies' backing because they knew he could be easily turned against the West, or worse still, overthrown and replaced by a Communist hard-liner.

W ith the passing of Romanov, the CPSU had to elect a new Premier. The countries of the Allied Forces sent many high ranking diplomats and government officials to attend Premier Romanov's funeral proceedings. However they were also there to see his potential replacement and to hopefully exert some influence over the Political Bureau in the hopes of getting a Western-friendly Premier selected. Despite all efforts though, the Political Bureau finally chose Lenin's friend and Stalin's adviser, Commissar Cheesy for Premier.

Cheesy's Revenge
B efore entering the Kremlin, then Commissar, Premier Cheesy took a hard stance against the West and the U.S., in particular calling the U.S. Stalin's murderer and destroyer of the Soviet Empire. This gained him many admirers and supporters. But in a move that many called Romanov-like he appeared to take a softer position when asked about his cooperation with the West. He honored all treaties, trade agreements and Soviet development plans with the U.S. and other Western countries. Cheesy, though, started to restrict access to his vast military complex. He even agreed to relocate the U.S. ambassador to Leningrad instead of removing him completely.

T his raised concern in the CPSU. They began to openly criticize Premier Cheesy. But he used the Political Bureau to silence this public outcry. To further keep his opponents silent, he ordered the Red Army to begin extensive, large-scale training. Entire Divisions were mobilized, frequently in a moment's notice. They were allowed passage through many towns and cities, even during the middle of the day. Tightening his grip over the Red Army, Cheesy ordered that every unit/division will be assigned a Political Commissar.

B acked by the World's praise as a man that stands against fanatics and protects his people, Premier Cheesy started to put his real plan into action. With the aid of Gwynzer, a survivor from Stalin's Psychic Program, he rearmed the Soviet Union with the latest in military technology. He used the newly created World Socialist Alliance, an ostensibly West-friendly organization, to create a global network of Soviet countries that can be used to strike against the Allies. 6 months ago, Premier Cheesy, with a surprise attack against the United States, moved into the next phase of his plan.
