Apebe, A suggestion for you:Originally posted by Apebe
so it was 2 As and 2 Mms. After Action Mooving Maps ...
You decided to post comments here. Fine with me. But the AAMM may sunk down on the page.. I will have to keep it upfloat myself with ' here is update ' comments
Owen : the picture wheighs now 495 k. It's already heavy. I'm also on classical 56k modem right now. Your fears are justified. I don't know though if I'll be separating ( fractionning) the AAR ... I feel kind of sad doing that ... but maybe I'll end up doing that. I had some trys around 200 k, but the quality was too poor ...
And yes it is a Photoshop thing ...
You should create a "film" for each set of, say 50 years, 10 years, whatever, and place each in a separate thread. These threads would rapidly sink down the page, but it doesn't matter. Now, the clever bit is that you post a link to each new film thread in a post in this thread. That way you only have a reasonably small file to be downloaded at once, and those of us who want to catch up can just load the latest one.
A fantastic, cool idea. An interesting country to play, also. My last venture into that area was Brunei; did I see that you've taken them over already?
Edit: No, I misunderstood what the arrow was pointing at. My mistake - all clear now!
On another note, I'd suggest less text or a different font with a 10-sec refresh rate or same text and 15-sec refresh. I usually read quickly, but your font - while very cool - is hard for me to read in small sizes.

yep. Owen ! I will definetly do what you suggest . Thanx for the idea.
Director. I agree with you. Got problems reading it myself to. Will change the font. I was so enthousiastic about launching the thing that I skipped details like that.
All your suggestions will be if not adopted, highly appreciated.

My Arr
Here is Chapter one of My ARR
Yay im back (damn medieval war is so damn addicting)
Twas the year 1492 when I was sent down from heaven to stop the war in the year 2309 (Full nuclear war...boom). My mission was to take control of Russia and alter its history in anyway so communists never take power. I've been given 300 years to do so.
So I embarked on this...filthy, drunken, barren journey to save the world. I was lucky enough to land right on the footsteps of the Palace of Moscow and my presence startled all. I was immediatley given full power (so I held up a lighter and shot of a flare.....whatever works).
My best guess to make the Russians never want communists is to simply make the people happy. This shouldn't be too hard there stupid peasents what could they want. I made my way over to Tver to talk to some peasents in the village.
"Hello, Im your king now how could I make you happy?"
"Gi me Vodka"
"Ummm. Ok" (i give them some vodka)
"Gss me more VodKaaa"
"Dont you want anything else"
"Noooth...Vodka..Gives me VOdka"
Ok well these people arnt to hard to please. Just give them Vodka. I take a quick inventory of the situation. Its not bad solid army and decent tax income. Much of the world hates me though, Well except for Denmark who I make an alliance with as my first official act.
Well a little further in my first year in my first year I get some startling news from one of my few Diplomats. Apparently relations are really bad with Poland whose 3 times my size and has an army of horse's that arnt just used for polo. Task one take preventative action against this. I get a little help with Royal Marrage offers from Bohemia and Moldavia in June. In august I cement an alliance with Bohemia so I now can force the Poles to fight on 3 fronts if they choose to attack me. I have about 200 gold in my coffers and an army of 119000 men stationed between Moscow, Tver and Novgorod.
1493 I looked at the state of affairs in my country. The people are pretty happy with +2 stability. Im still pretty uneasy about the country's defence's but I really dont have much money to put into soilders (There cheap, but there are more important things). No the establishment of good relations throughout the world and improving my income would have to be the first step. Throughout the year I would take steps at both, Austia and Hungary would join my Anti-Polish alliance. Beneficial to both country's because the threat from Turkey could eliminate either of them, but combined with along with Bohemian suppport they could put up a fight.
Financially I would send 7 merchants to Novgorod over the course of the year. 4 established improving my income a bit.
1494 I feel pretty safe about the defense of my lands. I have weak techs which I will work on improving but I have high amounts of troops and a strong alliance against my biggest threat. Time to get those techs up and get myself some money (Vodka is expensive stuff). I put Taxcollectors in Moscow, Tver, Novgorod, Vologda, Vladimir. I kept up with my plans to improve foreign relations by entering a Royal Marrage with Hungary.
Keeping up with my trade improvements by sending 3 to Danzig which all would establish.
1495 Im up to about 60 D a year 11.7 a month. 9.3 from tax and less then 1 from trade and that simply wont due. 3 more merchants off to Andalusia, only 2 would survive to set-up-shop but that atleast would get me to 1 a month. Unfortunately my army took a major hit, loosing 40,000 plus to desertion in Novgorod (RE). They were heard to be yelling they want more Vodka as they ran for Ingermanland (what is wrong with these people). I did hit land tech 2 that same month (so what if all my opponents are about to hit 4). Austria and Hanseatic League refused to take our princess's ( They said they would consider it if we shaved them and gave them a tic tak).
All was not bad this month as far as rest-of-world relations go. Our borders were secured for atleast 4 years+ when P-L (Venice, Hanover, H-L, Portugal) DoW'd Turkey (Crimea). Good let those two giants pound away and leave me and my allies alone for my plans....
Give me some feedback please.

Not finished yet (I'll probably play 'till 1820) but the Legacy of the WHite Sheep (see sig) is coming along nicely.
Lucky I saw this. I was plotting to try and claim World Conquest for Dummies for my own. I guess crime doesn't pay.
I don't appreciate such blatant plagarism. This thread is locked. DanisVan, you should know better. Imperial Army, I've sent you a PM.
Beautiful, Aphebe.
Hope it doesn't strain your puny 56KBaud modem when uploading.
Now, time to take Malacca, methinks, and then Indochina and China. Nippon is a nice target as well.

A very fitting follow-up to your "Odd Painting Experiment", Apebe.
You are truly a master of strange AARs.

I've finished Writings of Halfard through to 1551 and started a GC as the Kingdom of Jerusalem called Sultans of Swing.
Announcing A Sort-Of History of Austria! Also, I am still NOT sure if Tales from Wallachia (need a link?) will be abandoned or not.
