This is the current politburo lineup effective May '42 to april '43, this was last edited on 22 July 03 (the first change will be PinkyGen taking over for EZ Rhino as the Economics Minister when EZ rhino leaves us sometime in July '03):
Politburo Assignments
I am going to use everyones user name because Im tired, crabby and want to get this done so I can go to bed!
General Secretary: conmcb25
Armaments Minister: Greeny
Economics Minister: EZ Rhino
Information Minister: El Awrence
NKVD Cheif: Iron Chancellor
Bossy20000: Party Idealoligist and Asst Info Minister.
STYOM-Member at Large
Pinky Gen-Asst Econ Minister
Xenozod- Asst NKVD
The NEW Government as voted on by the people.
Marshal In charge, defines the different fronts of battle and who commands them. Controls where reinforcements and labour brigades go. He is the first and last person to play the game in a turn. Reports enemy movements upon new turns.
STAVKA will be the Military War Council for the Marshall. They shall be composed of some or all of the Front Commanders. This shall be decided by the Marshall. Someone who is not a Front Commnader can also be on STAVKA since this body is the group that assists and advises the Marshall he can have someone on the Council that is not a Front Commander. Front Commanders and STAVKA memebrs are chosen and serve at the pleasure of the Marshall. He picks them and he fires them. They are responsible for the Operational and Tactical conduct of the war.
POLITBURO is the Civilian Committe in Charge. They Hire and Fire the Marshall. If Stavka memebers are tired of or want to get rid of the Marshall they need to covince the POLITBURO. POLITBURO handles the civilian issues:
Propoganda, Industrial production, finances, Party Purity and Policing those not loyal to the Party. They also determine the Strategic direction of the war. The POLITBURO is composed of 7 members. Those seven chose the General Secretary/Party Chairman and he appoints members to different roles.
The roles are:
Propoganda Minister
Economic Minister
Armament Minister
NKVD
Now thats only 5 total "jobs" but that’s OK in the real Soviet Union the Politburo was the senior Party hacks, they did not necessarily have jobs like lets say the US Cabinet. So the remaining two, if we have 7 would just be plain old Politburo members.
Anyone else who runs and doesn't make the final seven can be assistants to the "job assigned Members". That way no one is excluded. If someone still wants to participate but doesn’t for some reason want to be on the Politburo then we can just say they are on the Central Committee, which was the Politburos group that executed the Politburos orders.
Economic Minister In Charge of the Science, tax, lux rate. In charge of assigning specialists to all cities. Controls the Caucauses Oil Fields. Must give approval for use of the rubles in rush buying by the Front Commanders and Armaments Minister. Controls the movement of Lend-Lease Program freight once they land in Murmansk. Reports to the General Secretary.
Armaments Minster In charge of the Ural Mountains Industrial Complex of cities and the production of those not directly under control of a Front commander (these western cities like Tula and Orel etc will eventually be occupied by Commanders, negating duty). Controls what is produced. Controls workers and labor brigades within the region for maximum output. Must gain the agreement of the Economic Minister to spend money out of the national treasury. Reports to the General Secretary.
Propaganda Minstry Consists of a Minister position (editor) and and newspaper (Pravda). Creates a map of the current war, records historical events and human intrest/ patriotic stories. These are several open positions for those who would like to be various types of journalists, though there is the chief editor of the newspaper, as Minister of Prop. Reports to the General Secretary.
NKVD can be in charge of policing us, recommending actions for city disorder, and making sure we all follow the Party line. I would like to eventually explore control of Saratov and the movement of NKVD units before they are assigned but I think that’s a bit much to ask right now. We can discuss that possibility later. (This is subject to change of course, it's still a little fuzzy on what this could turn into, but it's not terribly important right now)
Chairman would determine the agenda to discuss and make sure that some conclusion came to discussion. He would be the head of committee vice a supreme ruler. Someone to keep the ball rolling, and keep things on track. The chairman could also serve as one of the other “jobs” if there is a shortage of members. He would also ensure that the members with jobs are doing them correctly.
The Chairman would serve at the pleasure of the Politburo and the Politburo would serve until another election is held. The members with jobs would serve at the pleasure of the Chairman. He could remove them from a job for failure to perform. And appoint another member, do the job himself or appoint an assistant.
The Marshal will not be on the POLITBURO, nor will POLITBURO members be allowed to hold positions in STAVKA or serve as front commanders.
POLITBURO members will be elected every 12 game months and will enter into office at the begining of the same month.
As changes are made via amendment or of course Genral Secretary Proclamation  I will of course update this first Post.
Here are the first Politburo Members:
Full Members
Stefanovich Ivan Knapovich (conmcb25 )
Ivan Kanzlereisky (Iron Chancellor)
Michaelovitch (Bossy2000)
Grenski Timyfovich Sladkov (greeny)

From: Oleg Sorokin, Marshal of the Soviet Union.
To: The Politburo
Attn: General Secretary
Subject: Threats upon the Front Commanders
Comrade General Secretary, members of the Politburo, I come to you with a request. Several of my commanding generals have come under threats from at large members of the Politburo. Under continued threats and attempting to defend themselves, they have become distracted from their work, the defense of the Rodina. If the generals are to build upon their record of success on every front, they must not be looking over their shoulders instead of looking towards the German lines.
The worst offender of the Politburo in my opinion, is comrade Michaelovitch who repeatedly threatens several of my commanders. For example
Here and here. I request censure of this member as punishment for stepping outside of the chain command and to be an example to the Politburo and the Rodina that NO ONE is above the law.
The proper chain of command if a member of the Politburo has a problem is to talk with the General Secretary who will then communicate with the Marshal, and at that point, a course of action will decided upon.
Sincerely,
Oleg Sorokin, Marshal of the Soviet Union.
Winner of the Order of the Red Banner

my Generals are NOT political, they're fighting Fascists, and I'll protect them while they are doing so. And it just so happens I do have the power to back up my politics.

Rule number 2: Never mess with the man who can send you to Camp Disobedience!
Heh, I wasn't disagreeing with you, just stating good advice...you are right, the Front Commanders should concentrate on the fronts.

As if I am not kidding when I say I will send you to Camp Disobedience for this! I even said it in some of my posts (for the people who don't get that it is obviously a joke), but I find it stupid to have to put at the end of every post that some things I said in it were just for fun! Most people can make the difference between a joke and serious matters!

Comrade Marshal, perhaps you should also admonish your generals...
