    Default Gold

    So, this is my first AAR, hope you like it.

    The Beginning

    Gold. Gold, the most greatest thing in my life...and most cruelest. People die for gold. I would. Forced by gold, people kill. So I do. I love gold. I hate gold.

    I can remember the day, I've moved to America...great America, golden America.
    I've let back family, I've let back my home.
    King Dom Manuel of Portugal always did love gold.
    He told Pedro Álvares Cabral to sail out the world for looking of gold.
    I got into the armie Pedro Álvares Cabral in the year 1498, I was trained to shoot, I was trained in fighting with the sword, I was trained in killing.

    In the year 1500, on the 9th. of march, we got into the boats.

    Our army did consider of everything:
    Swords:

    Spears:

    Horses:

    Arquebuses:

    and Muskets:

    Dark clouds did hang on the sky, what unholy sign...

    Pedro Álvares Cabral rode in front of our roes and told us:

    "My men! We're going to travel far the world! We're going to discover new lands, rich lands! Glory, honour and gold, tones of gold, a million tones of gold, you will swim in gold, my comrades.
    We'll need to withstand dangers for your gold, we'll need to fight for it, my comrades!
    Many will fall, but that means more gold for the others!
    Now, my men, get into the world and discover her!"

    We marched, maybe for glory, maybe for honour, but shurly for gold.
    In hell we marched, for gold.

    The Arrival

    The journey was long and hard, we've lost mans by hundreds.
    We had lost a complete ship and just a few men could been saved.

    On the 22.04.1500 a jealing shout got threw our ears:
    "Lands! Holy father in the glorius heaven! There're lands in front of
    our ships!"
    The men began to scream and to celebrate and to pray.

    A few hours later we did land:

    Cabral watched our landing:

    We built up a fort on a plateau, backed by some little mountains:

    Everyday we did search, but we did neither find population nor gold.

    On the evening of the 3. May I was set as watch in our fort, as suddenly the goal watch shouted:
    "See! There're men on the way! Open the gate!"


    "What are these?"
    "They're no humans! See, they were blooded skins!"
    "They're demons!"
    "Shoot, comrades, kill'em, to the last!"

    I fired my arquebus at them.

    Their bloody bodies fell dead to the ground.


    With the fall of the bodies, we ran to them and did search 'em for jewellery.

    As Cabral saw what happend he called for meeting of the captains.

    The meeting was hold threw to complete night and on the next day Cabras came to the soldiers and told us:
    "My men, see what has happend, demons entered our fort and we killed 'em.
    But there must be more of them out on this crazy world and we must kill them and vanish them and destroy them!
    The plan is that some of you search the deeper jungle for those bastards and loot their settlements!
    We will vanish those satanic bastards!"

    On the noon a little force was built and sent up.



    We marched days and nights threw the dark forest, full of astonishing things and animals.

    In the night of the third day a scout came back to the main forces screaming:
    "Flee, my brothers, they're thousands! Their army fills up the horizont! Flee, as long as you can!"



    Our Captain ordered us to get into a defensiv position on a hill.

    My breath was heavy, as I heard the noise of the enemies army, no I did not hear, I did feel them, I did feel the quake of the earth, as they stamped.
    I embraced my arquebus and layed it on.

    "Fire, you dastards, fire!"


    Our Arquebuses brought death to their rows, but that wouldn't stop them.
    They came nearer, unstopable.

    The enemies didn't stop charching, even when they were wounded.


    In the last moment before charching, I could take a look at the eyes of one of the enemies, they were bright and full of fire.

    Then, with the push of hundreds of warriors, bloody battle began:


    My frontman was hit by a spear getting threw his heart and I pushed my sword into a enemy.

    By now, every soldier in the field was insolved in battle.

    And dead bodies were flatting the hill

    And enemies warriors wearing skins of animals were entering the battle




    Battles tide didn't seem to be on our site



    While fighting of another enemy I shouted to my
    comrade Pedro:
    "Pedro! We are driven off! Let's flee out of this hell!"
    Pedro turned to me and said, with a little smile on his face:
    "You foolish dastard, don't you see? Reinforcments are coming!"


    Flooted by new valour I once again got into the mud of fighting.

    In this moment, the reinforcments reached battle


    "See! Those cowards flee! Long live great Portugal!"


    For now, we had won. For now...
    Für dich, ganz allein, all' mein Gebein.

    I like it. I would say the lightning effect is a tad overused, and I'd try to take screens that show no visible marks of it being part of the game, for instance an arrow on the side of the screen pointing toward your currently selected unit, like in the fifth screen of the second part. Otherwise good work!

    good AAR!!! i like!! Seriously, the story is really cool and i like how it seems personal, how they do think about leaving the battle. Also the fact about the "precious" gold is hilarious. Keep it up!
