INTRODUCTION
Hello there! The decision about writing this crazy AAR wasn't thought throught but with a setting like this, it was the only right thing to do. It's not my firsta AAR here, I wrote also "The Necronomicon in Byzantium - Horrible Tale of The House Angelos" few months ago but alas, my save got corrupted and the AAR was abandonde. This one however is in the Steam cloud, so it shouldn't happen again.
Important things to know:
1. I'm not a native speaker
2. It's gameplay/narrative AAR.
3. The save will be exported to EU4 (I hope by the time it happened, all the issues with converter will be fixed)
4. Ironman, hard difficulty, OP event troops and two giant hostile empires = challenge is real. I'm not sure whether I'll survive to the 1453 at all.
5. Don't expect a happy ending - Europe in this game is a quite grimdark place.
6. Yes, I really like House Angelos.
7. Maps were created using info from this thread.
