Impo- Difficult Victory
A Japan AAR

WINNER OF WRITAAR OF THE WEEK 02/09/09

Settings - Very Emu (25% IC, resource and manpower for the AI)

This will mainly be a semi-comical gameplay AAR, and will hopefully show off some of the awesome features of Mod 34, the only mod I've ever truly enjoyed.

SO PREPARE

1. Setup, or
GLORIOUS JAPAN ON THE MARCH

ScreenSave0-13.jpg


The greatest nation on Earth slumbers in a deep slumber. This slumbering giant will soon stir and CONQUER THE WORLD*




*Sections of China

ScreenSave1-12.jpg


Japan's wise cabinet of Victory do not slumber, however! They are alert, like Tiger! And hawkish, like Hawk!

ScreenSave4-6.jpg


When offered difficulty settings, Emperor Hirohito laughs with scornful scorn, scorning the concept of an 'easy ride'. Do your worst, Gods!

ScreenSave5-12.jpg


... The Gods have won this round.

For revenge, Invincible Japan begins preparation for a war on Heaven itself:

ScreenSave12-8.png


Ahahahahaha.

And now, the state of our Grand Military at the start of the game, October 1st 1934...

ScreenSave3-8.jpg


NO ARMY IS GRANDER!

After some reorganisation, our Grand Army is now in several mighty Corps and Armies of incomprehensible power and majesty.

ScreenSave10-13.jpg


Our Grand Air Fleets blot out the very sun!

ScreenSave7-8.jpg


Our Grand Navy threatens to sink China itself!

ScreenSave6-9.jpg


KNEEL BEFORE YOUR NEW GODS! proclaims the Immortal Emperor.

Then, we go to the London Naval Conference to sort out our differences with the lesser races like men, with words. Not violence.

ScreenSave9-10.jpg


Oh yes, 'The West'. There is agreement.

IN HELL!

Promising! :)

Personally I didn't like the 34 Mod. I couldn't force myself to get used to the new techtree. :D
 
That's quite a handicap there. Should be interesting to see how you do, especially in later years.
 
mod 34, very emu, comedy/gameplay
3 very good reasons to read this AAR:D

2. JAPAN'S GLORY GROWS BY THE HOUR​

Hoi22009-07-2616-09-53-25.png


Our glorious tech teams complete the research of submachine guns, allowing us to research the most complicated infantry yet devised by man.

Hoi22009-07-2616-12-17-48.png


Witness our power! Our invincible legions are now IRREGULAR INFANTRY. No more Great War infantry here, pah!

WE ARE NOW IRREGULAR!

IRREGULARLY GLORIOUS THAT IS.


Astounded by our glory, Perfidious Albion and the United States of so-called-America decide to sign a treaty whereby they can construct 5 million tons of shipping and Japan, JAPAN MARK YOU, can only construct 3 million!

Hoi22009-07-2616-12-24-67.png


Emperor Hirohito is enraged! Rage such as you cannot imagine!

We shall construct THREE HUNDRED million tons of shipping, and there's not a thing the Anglo-Saxons can do about it!

BANZAI!

Fired up by this patriotic fervour, our teams complete 'Wartime Industrial Base'. Japan now ranks among the top nations of all History!

Hoi22009-07-2616-12-46-96.png


BEFORE LONG THE GODS THEMSELVES SHALL BOW BEFORE MIGHTY NIHON!

Until next time.



To be continued...
 
Irregular infantry! Who would want a regular army comprised of irregular infantry? :rofl:
 
3. TREATY TREATS

Hoi22009-07-2616-13-01-26.png


Research begins on the brand new Shokaku-class Carriers - Aircraft Carriers of such unimaginable horror that no picture could be displayed for them.

Hoi22009-07-2616-14-11-26.png


To celebrate, the Japanese government puts on a Sho-wa for the denizens of our Nation, our glorious, fabulous... no, not fabulous. That's too fruity for MIGHTY NIHON.

Hoi22009-07-2616-14-26-76.png


AND WE GROW MIGHTIER BY THE DAY! We leave the Naval Treaty - in fact, according to the event we already HAD left it, meaning we are even more glorious for having not bothered to inform anyone until now.

Happy New Year, THE WEST!

Hoi22009-07-2616-14-39-90.png


Look at all those Blueprints! Japanese Naval science advances at a pace that cannot be expressed as a percentage!

Witness our power, China. Do you not tremble?

Hoi22009-07-2616-28-39-20.png


WHAT!

CURSE YOU, CHIANG!

To be continued...
 
Uh oh, those crafty Chinese are plotting with those foul Germans. Watch your step in Asia! :eek:
 
I need inspiration for when i play as japan!

Translation= if you abandon this im gonna rip your head off and shit down your neck

:D

Buy a dude a drink first!

Personally I didn't like the 34 Mod. I couldn't force myself to get used to the new techtree.

It's really worth it! Takes a few games to get used to it, though.

That's quite a handicap there. Should be interesting to see how you do, especially in later years.

I'm hoping it will actually be difficult :D


Everyone else: Thanks for your comments! Tell your friends :p
