    Default Will this something like this count like an AAR%

    Hi! I came up with an idea on writing something like an AAR. So i looked around in the AAR sub-forums and found that all of them are like books (they have a story focused on one or a few characters etc). I planned to write something like a Let's play, but it would be in a form of forum thread. So here's my (sort-of) AAR for Lithuania. Btw i'm using a mod called Clouds Across Europe, it can be found on this website> http://www.twcenter.net/forums/downl...o=file&id=1301

    P.S The only reason i ask this relatively stupid question is because i wan't to know whether i can post this in AAR section of forums.

    Here's Lithuania - a pagan kingdom in the deep forests of Baltics. I picked this faction because i have been in Lithuania myself and i have always had great interest in Lithuanian history.
    Our factions capital is Vilnius, it's a castle not a city, which is good considering the fact that a few crusaders could come and try to take Vilnius from us. But that also means less income.

    [/PHP As you can see our faction leader is called Grand Duke Daumantas. He's an incompetent man at best. Fortunately he's also the only general we have, so his low Authority points shouldn't be to much of an issue. My plan for now is to capture Minsk and try to establish a healthy trading relations with Russian Principalities.



    Having done this before i know that Council of Nobles will very likely give me a mission to capture Minsk, so now i can seize the city and also earn some nice bonus along the way. So i take my large army and capture Minsk. They had no chance.

    A turn later, Daumangas's son Butudas becomes old enough to lead an army, so i leave his weak-minded dad in Minks and order Butudas to move and seize the rebel settlement of Varniai.



    While he's on the way, a bride is presented for Butudas. I accept ( i need them to make babies ). Also i have managed to convince Russian Principalities, Poland and surprisingly Teutonic Order to start trading with me (money!!!).



    Butudas takes Varniai no problem and after i reinforce him with some troops from Vilnius, i send my general for the rebel settlement of Riga. Capturing that village should open us a way to trade overseas in the future. Riga doesn't even have a wall, so it's going to be very easy at best.



    -Butudas at Riga.

    So that about wraps it out. So - can i post this in AAR section of forums, should i continue doing this type of things, what should i work on? Every opinion is very much appreciated.

    I think you should definitely continue - I think most AARs are too thick on the novel-type drivel, and too thin on the game and how it's played. Keep going!

    Mate I totally agree. Usually it is incredibly badly written prose that everyone then circle jerks over. Check out my Spirit of the Blitz AAR for something a little different.

    You're very good at this game to say the least.

    Haha, yeah, read "spirit of the Blitz" a couple of weeks ago - thought it was hillarious!

    nice nice, you should ally with your orthodox brothers, the Wallachians , and help them crush the Turks and drive the Hungarians out of Bran

    It's a mod called Clouds Across Europe. I have the link to subforum in my first post. The download link there seems to be broken, but some kind sir uploaded a new one and posted it somewhere in the sub-forum.

    eh, I think I'll download this mod to play with Wallachia, but not right now because I'm playing Dragon Age and don't have time for M2TW
    thanks for showing it to me, I always wanted a mod with Wallachia in it, I know there are a few more, currently Tsardoms is in development, but it's the most promising one so far
