First I'll just say that I love reading the AAR's on here and hats off to those that do it. Hopefully one day I'll also be able to do contribute

I know the HOI3 AI isn't the best at competing with an experienced player but are there any AAR where the player doesn't go on and dominate the world? I've seen some players play on hard or very hard but still they win fairly easily.

This is shameless self-advertising, but I've recently started up an AAR where I am specifically trying not to conquer everything, especially as my AAR is more narrative-driven then most. I've played about fifty years ahead of the current point, and written about 15 more chapters then have been posted, and from my current position, I still look around in dread of any sort of large enemies. Then again, I suppose Crusader Kings (the first one), which my first Act of the AAR is based upon, is known to be more difficult then it's successors.

If I see any other AARs of the sort, I'll shoot you a PM ;)

Well there's a HOI2 aar which got renamed into Democracies Last Legs.
I also remember something about a democratic Germany AAR in DH which ended with the Soviets steamrolling all of Europe, (as for some strange reason the fascist didn't decided to help Germany when Stalin started a reverse Barbarossa.)
EDIT: Here's a link
