In terms of scope, the problem is that the playable map was cropped for some inexplicable reason. We know there will be Assyrians, and they will have settlements, so why on earth would they exclude...

Thank you all for supporting my writing over the years. I've had several requests to notify people when my book is published and that time has come. The book is set in the same time frame as Attila:...

You can ignore politics in Empire Divided. But you will die. Sometimes you'll get a secession/civil war likely message and by that point it's too late if you don't have the money for actions, or they...

This was a welcome update to the game. I've just finished a H/H campaign as Aurelian, and it took me until he was seventy years old. I didn't go into the game having high expectations, thinking that...

This really would have made a perfect Attila expansion. I'm not sure what to make of it. The graphics are so tame compared to what could have been done with Attila in the 3rd Century. The new...

So here's the scoop. Photobucket has recently begun demanding 399 dollars a year for third party hosting. Which means I have to find an alternate host for the images in the AAR. It's going to be an...

My side of the argument wins. For all time. Now that it's settled, we can move on.

You wrote your narration behind the scenes though. You showed us all a new way of doing things, and that deserves recognition.

That was a beautiful tribute to another year, Shankbot, thank you. Congratulations to all the winners and those who competed. The announcement scroll had me chuckling this morning, Alwyn and...

This is an interesting video I found on observations Macchiavelli made about the common man and the ownership class in Medici's Florence. Should be good...

Congratulations on entering the MAARC. This is my type of AAR with one of my favorite factions because of their historical start in Rome II. It's really great to see Epirus on higher settings in DeI.

It's really easy to become their ally as the Vandals, but you need their territory to progress as a faction, making any alliance obsolete within less than a decade of game time.

I posted an advert on Reddit, which I thought was a pretty good idea too, and to some surprise I saw the advert you had placed a year ago :P What had happened was the timing of my post was at the...

I've updated my favorite top three male characters from an AAR, as well as the authors for the nominations and correct title for the Ironborn AAR with Theon Greyjoy.

AARotY:
Best Male Character:Theon Greyjoy 'Last, but not least.' by Mitsosan. Pakheme, 'Scourge of the Sands'. by Paladin94610. Authorius 'Fractured Eagle.' by Baozi
Best Female Character: Rosalind...

I'm flattered by these nominations. I'm familiar with several of these tales so perhaps I can get a nomination list in by tomorrow. RL has been an obstacle recently.

Congratulations to all of the winners and participants, and a huge thank you to everyone who volunteered to make the awards happen. Modding keeps the community alive, and these awards drive home that...

Voted. Best of luck, gents. :thumbsup2

I'm getting the error image for mobile devices, and literally nothing for my PC.

Does anyone know what happened to the screens and pictures from A Wolf Among Dogs, by Radzeer?

I'll have to see how this looks on the campaign map. Generally, it would appoint a regent (a generic sister or cousin) to serve as queen until your new heir could take her place. When civil war...

Congratulations to the winners. And I agree that Geoffrey of Villehardouin's overlooked narrative is a new template that AARtists could use to tell a campaign story. I would highly recommend him as a...

WB Lortano. How goes it?

Political actions, influence and the family tree. So much to work with.

I would add trading provinces in diplomacy to your list, as well as tribute per turn. I'd also like an option to bring children of marriages between factions over to your faction.Bringing 'Demand...

I don't find Attila to be dull. It's my favorite title, right next to Medieval II. TBH I've had a lot of fun getting the max potential out of the unmodded game and DLC and I look forward to overhaul...

It's exists and is in this thread. It might be under spoiler tags though. EDIT: It's the very first spoiler tags in the OP

Beautifully written chapter

I enjoyed this. Sometimes in AAR writing you lose focus on the adversaries story and perspective, and since this was centered around Merenda, it made me forget that it was a Visigothic campaign. To...

I'm in disbelief: OP's favorite recent title is Shogun II due to features, yet there's almost nothing Shogun II can do that Attila can't. And as for a higher rating, I want customization for LL that...

So there you have it. I'll be tidying up the thread, spoiler wrapping the index, making sure the chronicle is current, and finishing the cast of characters.

Some things I could go...

My personal favorite migration AAR was Taking Back Europe From the Timmys (Timurids) Mine was an accidental migration :P it was my second time playing and I was unprepared for the Huns (and you know,...

EPILOGUE

THE ONE SWORD HAS MANY BEARERS

I just finished it, enjoyed it very much, and that was a satisfying but bleak ending. I couldn't help but feel bad for Severus, in part because we as readers are engendered to the first person. I...

END GAME

The Eagle...

Very well narrated- this is the first let's play I've seen that reads out like a proper AAR- you should consider a career in voice acting, book narration, or perhaps even acting.

Congratulations on finishing the book. 1. the use of the story vehicle of a 'fish out of water.' works early, but if he acclimates and starts acting like the rest of the characters with some...

Best DLC other than AoC for the reasons stated above. It shows that the game can stand on it's own without the Hunnic Invasion, which makes it a shame to me that a second GC map campaign was never...

I agree with all of your points, to the letter- the MSM is to blame for most of these problems, with a dim, partisan, all or nothing approach, that really benefits only the elites in the country....

Thank you for the critique as always. I hadn't noticed that run-on with the Pyramid of Cestius until now, it's easy to get going with a first person narrative ;) I've fixed it and I really pore over...
