Default Re: aar details to be determined

We have some people here who feel they have Rlyeh down pat either with killer strategys for playing it or with killer strategys for taking it out. An AAR done for the enjoyment of reading the decisions made, why they were made, the mistakes, the wins, might dissapear in arguments between people not involved in the AAR. Just my humble opinion.

But then there is also just my own personal natural tendency. I like to explore the underdog. So in a question about which nation could use an AAR I tended to look at the list for those nations I felt have been least explored or pinned down already. Some of my first choices already have AARs running.

Since my name got mentioned, I guess I'll add to the thread.

It's probably too late to make any suggestions on what to play. So... my advice is, good luck and stick with it. The more that people write AAR's, the more that others will be encouraged to try. I'll be reading as it shows up.

With regards to style... Write in whatever way works for you. It helps if you have in mind how you want to handle things and stick with it, but really, just write the way you like. The more people write AAR's, the more variety we'll get.

And that's good.

Oh, and yes, I will be resuming my game soon. I just have this slight problem of having purchased a brand new video card, and I need to carefully allocate my time between all the games I'm suddenly wanting to go back and play...
