So, I guess sort of like Hamilton, but with Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin.

This idea is either brilliant or incredibly terrible. You be the judge.

      They also would probably make Nicky a tragic hero who truly cared for his people and wanted to do good but just wasn’t up to the job.

            He doesn’t quite go that far, but he does stress how incompetent and unprepared Nicky was as a leader. He’s only done up to 1905 as well, so maybe he’s more harsh later on. He kinda presents Nicholas as a man trapped in a historical role and forced to act it out (which is actually kind of a materialist take I guess).
