Rome LibrAARy Update Thread: Report Your AARs Here

[comagoosie]

Hello and welcome to a place where you can advertise your newly started AAR, and not mention, make your Rome LibrAARian's (me) job easier.

What a good post looks like

I am beginning a new AAR
Rome's Dream
I'll be playing as Rome [enter a [anchorlink=anchor1]category[/anchorlink]]
Start year xxx
[if this is your first AAR, say so.]
[Insert link to your AAR here]

And when you have completed it and you can add how it was completed

My AAR Rome's Dream has finished, end year xxx by world conquer

[anchor=anchor1]categories[/anchor]
Narrative: An AAR that is 'novel-like', using characterization and plot to drive a story. Gameplay is heavily buried.

History-book: An AAR that reads like a history book would, with a more detached manner than a narrative. Doesn't have to be a 'history book', could just as easily read like a newspaper, a series of reports, or some other format that is similar.

Gameplay: An AAR that is driven mostly by gameplay, with the gameplay itself being lightly buried, if at all. Usually recognizable by usage of game terms in the AAR itself, and such. Also known as 'Non-Fanfic'

Comedy: An AAR that is intentionally humorous. Usually difficult to classify in the above three categories otherwise, and prioritizes humor over things like drama and coherent plot.

NOTE: If anything has changed during your AAR, you report it here. For instance, you have changed sides or countries, or maybe you have a mod that made a unification possible, then you report it here.

Thank you.

I am going to try something new. When you report your AAR I would like you to include somethings. What category it falls under, Narrative, Comedy, History-Book, or Gameplay. Explaination of each category is under the first post. And if this is your first AAR, would you include that please. I am doing this for the ACA awards to cut down on confusion.

I apologize (if you have already reported your AAR, could you please post your editions (and edit your original post) or you PM me.

Thank you

Roma Immortalis is both my first AAR and History Book style, I suppose. Minor hints of (bad) Comedy from time to time.

[Rensslaer]

For those of you who have access to the CE Forum for Rome, please be advised that there is a new Rome Beta AAR over there called Bouna tez Petros (Mountains of Stone).

For now, it is restricted content for CE Owners only. It may be moved here to the AAR forum at some point. Maybe even sometime soon -- I don't know Johan's intentions entirely.

It is a gameplay AAR.

Please enjoy!

Thank you
