Since this other historical-discussion forum I used to moderate at has mysteriously vanished without a trace, will start this thread HERE:
Subject: The Brusilov Offensive 1916.
(For those of you NOT familiar with the First World War, this was Tsarist Russia's last offensive. Within nine months, the Tsar was deposed, and in less than nine months after that, Lenin and the Soviets were in charge)
A genuine watershed of the First World War.
Floor is now open to discuss the minutiae of that campaign....
(I am imagining that Azzafox will of course argue the Tsarist Russian viewpoint, and I will start with the Central Powers rebuttals)
