Weekly AAR Showcase: Life2.0 - a Broken Shackles Narrative

[TheButterflyComposer]

I did have Elfwine in mind when GS made the claim. You two should race each other to see whose improbably bear-themed AAR ends up the wildest.

Lancaster probably isn't even in the top ten oddest ckii games. Might not even be the strangest of my games, lest I remind everyone of the nigh immortal emperor galahad and his wars against the Islamic world and the kingdom of Italy, in a truly unholy alliance.

Was more thinking of King Wiggles the Dragon who was adopted by hedgehogs and thus thought he was a cannibal when he ate them...

Not an actual game thing, surely! Just you being all Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds?
Anyway, congrats @GangsterSynod

Oh boy...I wish I could make stuff like that up. Have a look, it's worth a read.

Where is it? This AAR, or another?

It's another one. Name escapes me but there really was a dragon character like that. Also Britannia was ran by Elephant Lords. Bless.

OK then, sounds fun but I’ll just have to take your word for it.

Usually I'd go through my back catalogue, but it's a CKII game from years ago so buried under hundreds of others presumably. However...fairly sure it won a weekly or quarter award so could look there...

Reckon you are talking about Against the Great Animal Calamity . Which was not literally barking mad purely because I think it lacked dogs. It did have the elephants, dragons, bears, hedgehogs, etc.

Yes, thats the one. Dogs are in fact playable (bloodhounds I believe) but can't remember if they were present.

Finally this thread digression can end

 

[GangsterSynod]

So I have shamefully and selfishly not paid too much attention to this thread before I actually won an award, but I assume I can now nominate an AAR for this next week? If so, I vacillated for a while between quite a lot of the AARs I like when I realized it should probably go to a new CKIII AAR. There have been quite a few excellent ones so far, but I think I am going to nominate The Chronicle of Black and Gold by @Twighlight Array 17 . It is very nicely written, occasionally educational, and ambitious in its different perspectives, all while remaining lively. Please join me in wishing them congratulations.

 

[TheButterflyComposer]

Good choice. Well done!

 

[Twighlight Array 17]

Oh, thanks so much! What an unexpected but pleasant surprise.

 

[Specialist290]

Congrats Twilight Array17!

EDIT: Formatting borked.

 

[stnylan]

Very many congratulations

 

[El Pip]

it should probably go to a new CKIII AAR.

And so it begins.

That said, congratulations @Twighlight Array 17

 

[Le Jones]

Congratulations @Twighlight Array 17

 

[DensleyBlair]

Many congratulations @Twighlight Array 17!

...anyone around? Shall we get back to this?

 

[Wraith11B]

I know we like to give a bit of leeway to the awardee but I'd imagine that you're fine to make a recommendation.

Agreed.
