I am attaching an improved Soviet ruleset. Besides improving the 
translation, I also added "Great Leader" as a title for Monarchy. I 
figure Stalin is the nearest equivalent of a Soviet monarch, so I just 
used one of his "titles". Somehow using, say, "The Great Teacher" or 
"The best friend of the Soviet sportsmen" seemed less appropriate:)

Egor, if you send me your Russian ruleset, I'll change the English 
there too.

Dmitriy
