First of all, apologies to everyone that I am a bit late making this nomination!
As Cybvep noted, I have followed a quite lot of HPP AARs and I have rarely ventured beyond the Hearts of Iron III forum. I don't doubt there is a lot of very fine work being written for the other game forums, so apologies to all those people that I'm not in a position to consider!
I would like to take this opportunity to thank especially
Slan and
TheBromgrev for their massive and un-relenting commitment to making the Historical Plausibility Project what it is (and for writing some entertaining AARs along the way!). I would also like to acknowledge two AARs in particular that I followed with great interest before I ever became involved with the forum. First,
Rensslaer's most instructive Portuguese saga,
Império Novo, and second,
Uriah's magnificent epic,
Rank and File, which I seem to have been reading forever - one day I will finally catch up!
As I am not (yet!) a writAAR I am not in a position to nominate someone who has supported me personally, and so choosing a nominee who is also a fellow commentator has proved surprisingly challenging! After some consideration, I came up with a short-list of members of this community who are supporters of many and varied AARs. One name on that list has never won this award before... No longer! My nomination for Fan of the Week is
Surt.
