    Thank you Paglia, and thank you all!

    On the AAR itself, I figure it's a good deal harder to make an AAR interesting if you do everything correctly, so I cheat by not being particularly good. Canada has had some success of course, I picked the right enemies. Hopefully, however, I can avoid the massive screwup I featured at the end of my Argentine AAR (reading tooltips is for losers, real men just get mad and curse alot when stuff doesn't work). I am glad people seem to be enjoying the AAR, I've certainly had fun writing it.

    And don't worry, the next winner will be in a different game.
    When will the citizens of free countries learn to stop supporting Dictators?

    A very quixotic AAR, good job InnocentIII--and it's HOI3!

    Thank you all.

    My honoree was easy to select as I've been checking in almost daily for a month or more. Come to the CK2 AAR forum and see that you don't have to fight many wars, win any, or indeed engage in any of the usual 4x activities to create a frequently exciting, sometimes heretical, yet always interesting and entertaining world.

    Come to the land of Tej, baboons, and a populace who never lacks something to kill each other over, even if it's just the dust and sand. Philo32b's In the Shadow of Certain, Painful Doom: Abyssinia Come to Sennar!

    There's always a (newly) empty place at the table.

    I was hoping to award next week's Weekly AAR Showcase to an AAR written for one of AGEOD's games, as I am quickly falling in love with them and they don't seem to receive as much attention as they so richly deserve. So I was delighted to find TheExecuter's "How Hard Could it Be? - A First Timer Plays WiA." Like TheExecuter, I also am new to Birth of America 2: Wars in America (WiA), and I found TheExecuter's AAR very approachable and well-written. What is nice, too, is that WiA is probably the best AGEOD game to start with in that family, so when folks new to the game read TheExecuter's AAR and get excited by all they read there to try out the game themselves, they will be well served to start with that game to get to know AGEOD. Thank you, TheExecuter, for your great AAR!

    Thanks for the award Philo!

    I'll post the next winner either tomorrow (Wednesday) or Thursday.
    The Last Mission A Love Story

    There is no way to peace along the way of safety. For peace must be dared, it is itself the great venture and can never be safe. Peace is the opposite of security. To demand guarantees is to want to protect oneself. Peace means giving oneself completely to God's commandment, wanting no security, but in faith and obedience laying the destiny of the nations in the hand of almighty God, not trying to direct it for selfish purposes. Battles are won, not with weapons, but with God. They are won when the way leads to the cross.
