I did some thinking about the historical counterparts to the players on the SOVIET team this round. Here is what I came up with:

Beatles - Joseph Stalin - The leader of the posse.
Nuke - Lavrenty Beria - It was a toss-up between Molotov and Beria, but Nuke had more kills than me.
Devari - Vyacheslav Molotov - See above.
Japan - Leon Trotsky - The loyal and effective fighter for the cause who was summarily turned upon by Stalin.
gondor - No clue. The four of us (Japan, Nuke, Beatles, Devari) were on the most and therefore had the most kills and attacks, so it is really hard to tell!

The Kraken, which is found primarily in Scandinavian myth, was a huge sea creature. It was said to lie at the bottom of the sea for a long time and then it would rest at the surface....Like the Midgard serpent in the Norse myths, the Kraken was supposed to rise to the surface at the end of the world.

Just perfect. Only a stub article about an insignificant little apparatchik, from which we know only that he was summarily executed by Stalin. Ideal. :D

Yeah, yeah, stable Soviet currency.
