I recently decided that I will do an AAR for every Paradox title I own, or at least for every franchise. I currently have only three: two for Hearts of Iron 3 and one for Victoria. On of these is currently ongoing. But I already have plans for EU3, EU:Rome and Cruasder Kings, and I was thinking about Mount & Blade: Warband as well. (That's not really a PI title, but still.) I also have another very serious plan for a HoI3 AAR, but I need a lot of work to be done before that can start. Until then, here are my projects so far:
My Fight - From the memoires of Franklin Delano Roosevelt
Started: 22-05-2010
Abandoned: 03-06-2010
A showcase AAR for the HoI3 mod I'm working on: the Historical Plausibility Project. It follows the diary of FDR before and during the second World War. It ended with the base of the Axis moved to South America outside of the reach of the Allied forces... I guess I abandoned it out of desperation
My Fight Volume II - Yet another HPP USAAR
Started: 05-10-2011
Completed: 14-05-2012
Kind of a continuation to the above. The premise is very similar but this one uses the Semper Fi compatible version of the HPP mod and I abandoned the diary style in favour of pure gampelay. There's a lot more to show in the SF version and I thought it needs more focus. If you are familiar with my other gameplay AARs, then you know what to expect
Hitler's gamble - An alternative German Strategy
Started: 21-11-2010
Completed: 21-10-2011
I started this AAR after a thread I posted on the HoI3 forum, regarding a possible alternative strategy for Germany, in which they try and hold the line in the West and take out the Soviets before going into France. After some consideration, I decided to turn the idea into a character-driven AAR, using vanilla HoI3-Semper Fi, 2.03c.
Letting off some steam - An industrializing USA AAR
Started: 30-07-2010
Completed: 24-12-2010
An AAR that was originally started to allow me some entertainment every now and then. It was a weekly affair, and became a bit more ambitious along the way than it was originally intended, ending up almost being an almost World Conquest. It is done now, including the Epilogue, in which I tell the dear readAARs what I've learned from this experience in regards to Victoria (and in general).
Favorite Gameplay AAR, Vicky 2010 Q4 (only technically though, since there was no competition)
Ten Reasons why Europa Universalis III is the worst game EVER
Started: 01-04-2011
Finished: 17-07-2012
This epic depicts my struggle with Europa Universalis III. Mostly Gameplay, with a focus on being entertainingly stupid.
