What stands against a campaign that starts with Czarist Russia in 1914? It could cover the whole WW1 against Germany and Austria-Hungaria. The campaign could either end in 1917 or transition somehow into the October Revolution. In that case it would be ideal if the Czar could somehow avoid or suppress the revolution and the entente could win WW1 in the East.

A very complex extension of the available campaigns, but should this not be possible either as a mod, addon or sequel?

as a mod, yes but the AGE engine isn't yet tailored to work well about largest conflicts with millions of men. The closer thing existing currently is the fictionnal Drang scenario.

Now, AGE engine force is modding possibilty so... :D

I think the map extends too much to the east and not enough to the west to model the Eastern Front, it would have to be extended for it to work. A 1915-1917/8 campaign that starts after Gorlice–Tarnów and the retreat could theoretically work, since the map has most of the places that saw fighting in that period (Except Romania), but it still lacks areas to which the Russians could advance to beyond their historical limits.
