    21 pages into the AAR and I am still a decade away gamewise from getting to the Vietnam War mod.

    That's right. I have had three Presidents get shot at so far.

    The basic premise behind the Presidents storyline is, "What if Wendell Willkie had defeated FDR in the 1940 Presidential election?" This AAR, along with the previous one, showcases how history might have unfolded had the historical loser won instead. I have to admit: even I am a bit suprised by the results.

    A well deserved award, a good read even to those of us without a pre-existing interest in US politics and well worth the effort of catching up on.
    Inevitable Defeat - Slovakia '44 - The award winning characters Tiso and Tuka attempt to save Slovakia from defeat and destruction. It probably wont end well. It definitely did win an AARland Choice Comedy Award. Now Back from the Dead and updating.

    Uh-oh! I forgot about nominating a successor. I am really sorry for my lapse.

    I am going to nominate For King and Country by Draco Rexus.

    It's an jack-of-all-trades AAR that has something for everybody. If you like character-driven stories, this is the AAR for you. If you like history-book style, this is the AAR for you. If you like British history, this is the AAR for you. If you like updates that stirs debate, this is the AAR for you. One way or another, you will find something in this AAR that will reel you in and never let go.

    Again, I apologize for not doing this sooner.

    Great choice. There are several great characters in that story, O'Rourke is one, and the Drake brothers are great as well.

    'For King and Country' is not only one of the longest - and longest running - AARs on the forum, it is a great read.

    But what we really need is for Draco to give up little things like 'work' and so-called 'real life' and devote his every waking moment to writing.
