Scroll to the bottom of this first post for a summary of the paragraphs.
It isn’t August yet so I’m not yet back full time. After returning home on a weekday I’ve discovered that my computer had broke down. Luckily, I was able to get a nice - see: Free - laptop for the duration of my little tour. As luck would have it - if a computer breaking down is lucky - the old mouse and keyboard seem to work well enough unfortunately the only Paradox games I can get going on this machine is Vik II, FtG - which I’ve been having nothing but problems with since this new machine - and Mount & Blade. Considering this, in spite of Vik II’s glaring flaws, I’ve decided to start up an AAR. And after the last few months, well, its time to detox for three or four weeks.
So what does this mean for the Revolutionary War AGEOD and AAR in French I was planning? Well, they probably won’t happen until I get a new desktop later this year/early next year. Vik II still doesn’t thrill me so I can’t see myself planning another B3/gameplay AAR for it. However, since I am only able to play Vik II, I’ve decided, after completion of this AAR to tie up my loose ends. This means completing AARs that I left behind, but there are some which are impossible to complete due to the crash so those will remain idle forever. The AARs I’ll be working on are: A real finale to The Revolution - it will be a separate thread so there‘s no need to subscribe to that one if interested - , finishing up my Japanese WWI Victoria AAR, Dante’s Blood, a rewriting of The Link in the Rome AAR forum and finishing up the HOI2 Library, which I’ve already restarted. I rarely announce new AARs or the restarting of old ones so if you’re interested in any of them and want to catch them when they’re restarted, its best to subscribe now. But again, these are just plans and we’ve seen over the last two years how those have worked out for me around here. The only thing I will not be able to complete is Von Weimar.
So what does all this mean? Well, it means you’ve got yourself a Spanish AAR. A Spanish AAR where the goal is to reinsert myself into the Americas. Considering the flaws that remain, the trouble of raising industrial scores without allowing yourself to be invaded and the like, it ought to be challenging to overcome the remaining broken pieces of the game. I’ll add that 1.3 finally makes the entire game playable after the 1.2 fiasco.
As for style, this will be another B3 AAR. If you’re new or don’t know what a B3 AAR is, head on over to the inkwell where PictAARs (EU3) and My Terminal Uniqueness (Vik II) sit. Everything’s fair game but one thing I don’t really do is political humor. Democrats are stupid and naïve and Republicans are evil. We get it. That kind of stuff comes from same people who vote straight ticket no matter what. They’re morons. There’s no maybe in that… unless maybe they’re brainwashed, too.
So let’s summarize this thing:
- There isn’t going to be anything political. At least nothing that’s taken place in the last fifteen or twenty years.
- Playing as Spain
- Will not permit myself to go over BB
- Will not permit myself to be invaded just to heighten my industrial score.
- I’ll likely try to either become communist or fascist which means I'll probably end up as neither one.
- I ran through a very quick test game and it looks like I’ll be able to play all the way through the game, unlike what happened with Bukkhara.
- This will be your standard B3 AAR
- The space below will be reserved for Chapter titles, allowing you to click links to the newest chapter. All chapter titles will reference rock song titles; all sub-genres of rock will be permitted so turn your speakers to 11 or if its a Rolling Stones update, down to 1. I’ll provide the artists halfway through and again at the end of the AAR in case you couldn’t find the songs on your own.
Update should be out in a day or two.
