1. Keep Nicholas II in power, complete the 'Convene IV State Duma' and 'Centrist Duma' focuses.
2. Wait until WWI breaks out or start it yourself, you must be at war with Germany and Austria-Hungary.
3. Either lose a lot of men (approx. 1.5 million) or lose a lot of victory points (reach 35% capitulation)
4. If you did everything right, there must be a timed mission for Nicholas II to abdicate. You wait until it is failed and Nicholas abdicates, therefore Provisional Government takes charge.
5. After some time Georgy Lvov takes power and you get a timed mission for him to resign. Just like with Nicholas, you should let him resign as fast as possible.
6. When he resigns, Kerensky takes power and you get yet another timed mission. Wait over it just like with the previous two.
7. After that you get a very short timed mission on Kornilov's march, when times runs out you get an event to either arm local bolsheviks, let Kornilov take power or make Kerensky a dictator, you, of course, choose to arm local bolsheviks.
8. When this is also done, you get another timed mission (the last one, I swear), when it runs out bolsheviks will finally coup the government and Lenin will take charge.
