I remember his name because the man was exceptionally infamous; he was the founder of the Cheka:
The Cheka soon became notorious for mass summary executions, performed especially during the Red Terror and the Russian Civil War.
The Cheka undertook drastic measures as thousands of political opponents and saboteurs were shot without trial in the basements of prisons and in public places.
Dzerzhinsky said: "We represent in ourselves organized terror—this must be said very clearly," and
"[The Red Terror involves] the terrorization, arrests and extermination of enemies of the revolution on the basis of their class affiliation or of their pre-revolutionary roles."

The Moscow Soviet (Mossovet) had the Dzerzhinsky statue removed to the Fallen Monument Park and laid on its side in August 1991,
after the failed coup d'état attempt by hard-line Communist members of the government.

I did not know the etymology of the term "Cheka", but what you explain is very plausible.

Vserossiyskaya chrezvychaynaya komissiya = "Ve-Che-Ka" = Cheka
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheka
"A member of Cheka was called a chekist.
Also, the term chekist often referred to Soviet secret police throughout the Soviet period, despite official name changes over time.
In The Gulag Archipelago, Alexander Solzhenitsyn recalls that zeks in the labor camps used old chekist as a mark of special esteem for particularly experienced camp administrators."

Did I count 71 German pieces in your latest scenario already?

Hello sIg3b.

It's possible, but you still have not seen everything ...

The designers of the game recommend that the amount of 200 units should not be exceeded, in order not to cause the processor of the computer to reduce its performance alarmingly.

If I remember correctly, there is a Scenario (or two) with 197 units.
It is war!

Small error: The guy the Tractor Works were named after is simply Dzerzhinsky.

Sorry sIg3b for not having corrected the error that you had detected in the first panel of Barrikady West. I had simply forgotten.
Below you can see the corrected version. You can download it directly and replace the JPG file in the Panels folder, as always.
The corrected panel is already included in the Core but is still not available. The reason is that I hope to include all the errata detected and make a new version of the Core.
