A Welshman’s Quest for Doritos
Ok. Some of you might remember me from my AAR in CK. Hopefully not many of you. Please don’t read it if you haven’t already. It was awful.
Back to this. A lot of you will probably remember badger ken, who used to do gameplay aars in this forum. He’s stopped now due to a bad shoulder which too much computer time had exacerbated, but his AARs were always great fun to read. Anyhow, ken’s first aar in Vic2 was one for Mexico. It ended in the 1860s due to computer crashes, and with hole he’d dug it into I think he was glad to stop. No offence to ken, who went onto become a GP with Persia and Switzerland, rise to 2nd with Denmark and break the UK’s dominance with China, but that aar should be taken as a pamphlet in what not to do.
So, here I am, I’ve decided I want to do a gameplay aar in Vic2. What country should I do? Suddenly I remember Mexico for N00bs, and I decide, why not give it a shot? I am a Doritos-aholic (couldn’t guess by the title?) and they sound Spanish, so there’s probably some in Mexico. Just better not get them confused with burritos, which just aren’t as heavenly.
I confess I have utterly failed to get into the 20th century as of yet with this game, but I’m playing 1.4 with the Great War mod so it should be fun when I do. And, because I’m a crap player more than anything, I’ll be using BK’s Victoria 2 Advisor.
Grand Strategy? Anything that harms the US is a good thing, a balkanized US is in my interests, stop the US form getting any sphereling, etc, etc, etc. I think you get the point now. Fetch the Doritos and settle down to watch!
