Thank you again everyone!
The year is 1944. British and American troops fight their way across occupied France. The massive armies of the Soviet Union storm west. The Axis Powers stand on the precipice. Their only hope lies with one nation: Slovakia. One nation will fight back. One nation will reverse the tide. One nation will stand up fo--
Aw, hell. They're totally screwed.
I am pleased to nominate El Pip for his hilarious Tiso and Tuka in Inevitable Defeat - Slovakia '44! These guys are part Laurel and Hardy, part... Hardy and Hardy, and even though their country is on a sure path to destruction, we can laugh the whole way there.

Seems I forgot to congratulate Bananafishtoday on his deserved win, so let me first correct that: congratulations!
Secondly, must concur with the choice of El Pip. My personal favorite (Slovak) character of his is Pruzinsky, who seems amiably unconcerned in the face of the coming Red Apocalypse.
Hollow Little Reign - A brief Crusader Kings tale about family ties in Byzantium.
I'm a big fan of El Pip's most recent AAR, so I say the congratulations are well deserved!

Thanks to bananafishtoday for nominating me and all the words of appreciation. I was trying to put a bit more characterisation into my writing and it looks like a succeeded beyond all expectation!
As my week is up I've had to decide who to pass the award onto and I've gone for c0d5579 and the characters of The Lion and the Lily. An excellent read and one full of well drawn characters, one where even walk on ambassadors get written with depth. He's won it before but I think this one is so good he's earned it again.
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.
The Butterfly Effect: A British AAR - The finest slower-than-real-time British AAR on the board.
Furious Vengeance - A 1944 UK AAR - My actual best work - Winner of the 2009 Iron HeAARt Award

Well deserved congrats, c0d5579!
