The Scenario Generation System will typically demand more Russian than German troops, because I tend to give them random morale status making them a little cheaper under the points system. However at this stage I don't plan any more Russians (let's see if I can keep to that claim).

I could now embark on Turkish and Austro-Hungarian troops to pitch against the Russians, but this will do for now.
