40 AARs were nominated for this category. 40!!!
And every one of them deserving! Our voters crossed over most of the games and in the end after a hard fought battle for first place, the 2023 Narrative AAR of the Year is:
I do not run these to win these but I certainly do appreciate the support. Especially because it is humbling considering so many other great works. Most especially our silver cup...
An amazing return for Alexander Primus now known as @The Kingmaker. Many congratulations for a strong showing! And our third place was last year's winner with a new AAR...
A unique work from a unique writAAR. Well done!
Of course, the riches remain with so many of these incredible AARs:
I told you these lists get longer. There is no doubt that the narrative form is still going strong. Long time members and new are represented above. New games and old as well. It is truly a great honor to be listed with these other works. Many congratulations to both @The Kingmaker and @Von Acturus for an excellent year writing a number of AARs, especially these. And congratulations to each of you that found your work given nomination.
Thank you to the voters for taking their time and care recalling all of the AARs of 2023 and putting out a vote, no matter how small or large. Now the floor is open for your own congrats, thanks and discussion of the works if you so wish.
