Admiral Kolchak commanded the white troops in early 1919. He launched the Triple Offensive, sometimes referred to as the Spring Offensive, against the Reds in March and April. It was noteworthy because the Reds were able to subjugate it and get the upper hand gradually until 1920, despite having used most of their resources on the other Southern and Western fronts.

Trotsky’s once famed "glory and pride of the revolution" engaged in the uprising of around 30,000 sailors against War Communism's harsh conditions. They distributed a manifesto supporting free speech, the press, and elections. This was the last straw for Lenin, who, although forcefully ending the insurrection, opted to institute the NEP.
This is a piece of propaganda previously glorifying the sailors of Kronstadt, demonstrating the former praise they received. -
The Kronstadt uprising is often seen as the reason of the end of War Communism, the Tambov Rebellion by the peasants was at its climax during this time as well. These developments convinced Lenin that he needed to reconsider the socioeconomic state of Russia under War Communism and adopt the NEP in order to maintain power, a decision Trotsky opposed.
This painting demonstrates one of the key policies of War Communism, forced grain requisitioning. -
