I just found this AAR yesterday. I have to say that I really like your graphics. I really know how much work goes into such things, and I don't know if I would be able to keep up this level of quality graphics throughout an AAR. Anyway, I"m all caught up now, consider me subscribed...
About your concerns about readership, I feel like there are a lot of lurkers on this forum, and I understand where they come from, I have been a lurker for ages. until I started my own AAR, and I realised how nice it is to get comments and feedback. The best ways to attract the more active commenter are probably to read and comment on other people's AARs, and to respond to every single comment. (A good way to keep this in order once you get longer and/or more comments is to group replies as to not fill entire pages with comments and replies etc. I'd say that would be one of those 'good problems' to have). Something else to bear in mind is that commenting takes more time than reading. If I really don't have a lot of time, I will read updates, but not comment for a while, and then return once I have more time available.
Great job on the invasion of Poland, keep up the good work. P.S. I love that you're building a strong German navy. There was a great AAR by @sebas379 dedicated to just that topic, some years ago: Hochseeflotte - The German Battlefleet of the Second World War | Paradox Interactive Forums I found that one quite interesting, it's very premise was the construction of a very powerful navy, Battleship based iirc. and it actually worked out really well.
I'm looking forward to some naval action, and some more masterful encirclements. Let's see how your Germany stacks up against the Worker's Paradise of which the flag is proudly portrayed above your forum name... Will you slay the bear, or will it use hibernation and it's seemingly endless supply of claws to it's advantage? (I know, bad bear puns... I should know better... I can't help myself)
