Very nice.
My thanks to SBH, "m" and Ganbarenippon for your kind comments.
Despite appearances to the contrary I haven't actually given up on this AAR, I have some vacation a week from now, and my accumulated sense of guilt has reached sufficient levels for me to be putting together the next chapter. There are several battles, one of which I will have to refight because I didn't take any screenshots of the important action.
If there is still anyone out there, then I commend you for your patience.
