Hi everyone,
****DISCLAIMER****
I read the forum rules and did not find anything against linking youtube videos of AoD AARs (if that is not considered leeching, which I don't think so).
In case it is not allowed then please let me know and delete this thread.
****DISCLAIMER****
So I started my first AAR, I play AoD vanilla of the latest patch (SUBR checksum) as Germany in the 1936 GC.
The first video starts in 1937 (I skipped the tedious initial setup but explain it in the video). I attempt to explain the basic game mechanics so that even people who are new to the game can get into it relatively fast, without having to go through the quite steep lurning curve (at least compared to mainstream games). While this might be redundant for experienced players, I'll try to focus in upcoming episodes more on the game strategy as well as the historical background and related thoughts on my part (so this might me somewhat more than a plain gameplay commentary, I also speak about related topics (historical and other) which come to my mind).
Here I'll post the youtube video link of the episodes that have been released. You can comment (constructively) here as well as on youtube, I'll be reading both of it!
I hope you enjoy and I apologize for the (occasional) bird sounds in the background, I have a rather large cockatiel family at home!
