Hello!
I am Naresh and this will be my first attempt at an AAR, I am a long standing player of EU3, and a long time lurker of the forum, especially the AAR side of things.
I hope I'm not too forward just posting a thread without asking permission or anything, but I couldn't find a thread saying to ask permission before posting about an AAR, so I am assuming it is fine, if not, please let me know so I can rectify the situation.
I will be running a Pomerania AAR, using the grand old Death and Taxes mod, v. 10.4. Settings are standard (medium difficulty) - 100 years for sea and land spread, lucky nations are random, starting in 1356.
Goals!
Self imposed rules:
Never attack without CB,
Never go over infamy limit
Don't form the HRE
Do not vassalise electors (even though D&T imposes fairly high penalties for vassalising them, it still means an easy route to the HRE and an arguably boring game)
Nothing gamey.
Having never written an AAR before, so I'll try to keep it light, using explanations of my actions, screenshots and minor dialogue / RP. I tend to get bored by RP heavy AARs, so I'll try to steer clear of that. As an added bonus I'll try to sum up each chapter with a small poem, though I can't promise any sort of quality...
Updates should happen every other day, maybe extending to 2 per week as things become busier (University and all).
So assuming I don't get shouted at for starting this thread, first update will be this evening!
