Kurt_Steiner : I had a feeling you might be getting bored...
4th Dimension : Yep, it's going baaaaaarely faster than the real thing. There are four reasons, IMHo :
- First a Narrative, IMHO, demands much more detail, and whole chapters might be needed to describe events that happens in a mere few days.
- Second, while keeping most of the focus on France - as France will be at the heart of the coming conflict - I also wanted to present you a panorama of events happening elsewhere. To be fair, this is as much for my own benefit as it is for yours, as it forces me to think more about the events that, directly or not, do and will affect France.
- Third, I probably enjoy keeping you on your toes, because I'm a sadist. Either that or I enjoy boring you for month after month, because I'm a sadist AND a mediocre writer ! Muhuhaha ! Take your pick !
- And last but not the least, the AAR went into hiatus for some weeks, at the time of my divorce, and went very slowly last year because I was working 16-hour working days for these damn elections I had to organize (personal record was a 26-hour working day that began a Friday morning at 7 and ended on Saturday at 9. As they say on TV : don't try to do this at home, kids)
HJ Tulp : I am presently looking for pictures of Argentinian and Brazilian soldiers of the 1930s-1940s (but before the Brazilians got US-equipped - Pictures of the Brazilian Expeditionary Forces in Italy I cannot use now, for obvious reasons, and yes I am anally retentive with that kind of thing). But don't worry. If anything, I'll find pictures of the location where the action will take place and put "Ciudad X in happier times" as caption. I won't let a lack of pictures bring the AAR to a halt, I promise !
