You talked about how you shouldn’t withdraw from Moscow and avoid the Revolution, if, among other things, the Russian army is too small.
How small is too small? How about 13 infantry, 15 artillery, and 1 fighter in Moscow, and no units anywhere else?

I’m having trouble understanding the question. Did I say this in the video? I’ll take a stab at the subject - the Russian player should try to bleed the CP player for as much troops and gear as possible. If they don’t fight, they leave themselves open to death by “bear hug”.
Otherwise, if the CP have fought with the Russians in one or more large, set piece battles, it is most likely in the CP interest to capture all the territories of Russia except Sevastopol and Kazakhstan.
The most useful aspect of the Revolution rule is that it keeps the Russian player near their capital (if they charge off towards the Ottomans or Austria they will be “disappeared” quite quickly by a savvy CP player via the Revolution) and it forces them to defend their capital inefficiently.
-
From direct messages:
"I’m going to go out on a limb and say - I think you are trying to recreate the example of the Russian army evacuating the capital as is demonstrated in the Russian Revolution youtube video. If you are/were trying to recreate that, here is why I feel very strongly that this move is not good in the game we are currently playing.
-
the move demonstrated in the video has the CP trying to bear hug the capital - that is not happening in our case as the CP have not hugged the capital - there is no bear hug
-
in the video, the Russian army is in extremely good shape. for that move to hit max effect, youd want a large russian army on the map - the current russian army is not large as it has fought many, many battles. there is very little to save at this point in the game"
You put other reasons that I have already found to be true.
My question is mainly whether 13 infantry, 15 artillery, and 1 fighter in Moscow count as “very little” or too little to justify escaping to Karelia.

Assuming all the other three points you listed were true.

@SuperbattleshipYamato I can see I am speaking to a specific game we played. I don’t remember the game. If you can find the game and repost here, I can better understand the context.
