    Doomed from the StAARt (large pics ahead)

    Poland
    1939 scenario
    Hard/Aggresive
    (almost) vanilla HOI - Polish armored division got fortified to ensure that it will survive to the end and to increase itīs impact.

    The game is already finished, no question about gameplay will be answered. Never ever.

    The AAR will consist of pictures only. I will maintain standardized size and resolution, so expect every to be a single .jpeg of size 150-200 kb.

    Oh... and one more disclaimer:
    This AAR is going to be a really slow one. I have only a little portion of work already done and I can not guarantee any schedule. Heck, I can not guarantee you that I will finish this one.
    So, expect long periods of time between updates. You have been warned.

    Absolutely fantastic artwork, and with a good bit of suspense and drama to it as well. This is going to be good, hopefully they can hold out.

    Fantastic images! That tank just has an ominous personality to it, and I like the misfits you've got to drive it, kinda like the dirty dozen?

    Can't believe no one noticed that this is an AAR based loosely on a great Polish - Russian movie series about a crew of a tank (RUDY was it?) and a dog. Great movie.

    Well, that makes you the winner.

    And by the way, can any Pole who read the books tell me what was the name of the tankīs commander in original?
    Because in the series it is Oleg Jarozs (Pole), but in books (at least in Czech translation) it is Vasil Semen (Russian).
