    thank you, thank you, thank you, you're far too kind!

    a few words about the AAR, ok here it goes:

    i feel comedy AARs is one thing we cannot have too much of. So i just wanted to make one of my own, and voila! It's heavily based on dialogue, most of it between Mammon(the main character) and somebody else, such as pages, generals, kings etc. A character that many readAARs seem to have liked a lot is Fluffy, Mammon's dragon. It occurred to me that i kind of neglected him, so now he is making his comeback as an overweight sidekick, probably getting a spin-off in the not-so-distant future.

    So, if you enjoy crude humor, gay jokes, and one-liners shamelessly stolen from shows like Simpsons/Family Guy/American Dad, you should definitely check out my AAR. Comments are always welcome.


    Thanks EvilSanta for having chosen my AAR, thanks to all my readAARs and thanks to all who congratulated me so far or will congratulate me in this my week of glory.

    Fnuco has left the building!

    Congrats Fnuco!

    And given that I have been lazy around here for quite a while I believe, congrats to everyone I havn't congratulated already too.

    I've searched far and wide for an AAR to pass the title to. I have found one dealing with world war one, and if you hurry, you might just get to read in time for the conclusive update in the battle of Chalons(more than 1.300.000 dead so far in the trenches). See Austria torn apart by three successor states! Watch the adventures of medal-hungry admiral Gedicke on the high seas. Witness the conquest of Africa and battles all over the world!

    All this and much much more in:


    The World is not Enough




    Congratulations Quirinus!

    Wow, this was unexpected.

    First off thank you to everyone, especially Funco who nominated my AAR.

    This AAR has been a lesson in how the AI doesn't always cooperate with the plans you dream up for an AAR.

    This is a WW1 AAR, and my initial plan was to go opposite the von Schleifen plan. In a nut shell my goal was to storm the French border fortresses and hold them with minimal troops while focusing most of my efforts on the Western Front. Unfortunately the AI didn't cooperate, so I instead had to go ahead and just knock the French out of the war...

    The AI continued to suprise me, leading to numerous events, such as the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but the biggest one by far was when the AI attacked with a million man army. The battle of Chalons is just now wrapping up, and it has lived up to everything one would expect from a WW1 battle, bloody and with little gain to show for it.

    So that's about it, I appreciate your reading this AAR, (it gives me something to do when I'm at work).

    Thanks again

    Congrats Quirinus, I have yet to check out your AAR, but everytime I see a winner of something I haven't read I usually end up there, so look for my comments in the future.

    Well, I've enjoyed my time at the top, but you know what they say...

    "It's lonely at the top"

    So I've decided to invite my old friend, Rensslaer for his fine work,

    "Fire Warms the Northern Lands",

    Oh wait, sorry old habit. I wish to nominate for the next weekly showcase from the world of EU3...
