Wow. Either you are one seriously dedicated son-of-an-AAR-writer or you have far too much time on yur hands...

But you got me interested...

USA patriot · 04-06-2002, 08:14

Wow! A trailer? And a nice one too! But plain white text? Aah-aa! Please make a small black border around it so that the text can be more readable

. You are using Macromedia Flash, aren't you?

Depeche Mode · 04-06-2002, 11:30

We're waiting!

Nikolai · 04-06-2002, 14:34

WOW! With such a good start, I guess I have to follow this AAR...!

Truskar · 04-06-2002, 14:35

Wooohoo starts cheering and breaks out the popcorn!!!

Dan Cook · 04-06-2002, 15:14

/me drools in anticipation.

Carligula · 04-06-2002, 17:07

Wow. (again)

So who plays Janus de Lusignan? Russell Crowe?

This I have to see more of...

Norgesvenn · 04-06-2002, 17:25

Beautiful intro, Bismarck! I think I know what you do for a living now.

Anyway, I'll read this AAR. Cyprus just hasn't had the same appeal to me as the Knights of St. John, but I do see the potential.

*ponders*

Maybe I should do an AAR by myself again, too? Ebbesen and I are a bit like The Spice Girls, we may do solo projects, too. And, before anyone asks: No, we are probably not as sexy...

Backpack · 04-06-2002, 17:38

Bismarck,

What an amazing trailer and picture to open this AAR. Excellent writing in the trailer too. I am looking forward to the continuation of this story.

Oh...your PM inbox is full.

Ariel · 04-06-2002, 17:52

Somebody PM the bugger and tell him to get a move on!

Emperor2002 · 04-06-2002, 18:04

Whoo Whoo.
A trailer that looks promising.
I am realy going to wait for this story.
Let it come.

Nikolai · 04-06-2002, 18:17

Not yet?

I'm getting sick...

of waiting of course!

Now Norgesvenn, don't sell yourself short. Your poor self esteem is obviously antithetical to the teachings of 'GIRL POWER.'

Say it with me now, I'm smart enough, I'm good enough, and dog gone it, Peter's sexy!'

Storey · 04-06-2002, 20:58

I have seen the future and it's a movie! It's only a matter of time until someone films an AAR!

Joe

P.S. Good luck with Cyprus. So who's the first victim? How about Teke?

Bismarck · 04-06-2002, 21:54

Thank you all for your enthusiastic reception. I thought for my second AAR, I needed... a little flair and to do something a little different.

Well, the first installment should be up in a few days(tomorrow at the earliest...)

I am glad that I can count on a body of readers who is eagerly anticipating the first chapter in a long, bloody AAR.

Carligula... I had trouble casting Russell Crowe(he wanted WAY too much money), so I hired some relatively unknown talent... but I am sure you'll enjoy it nonetheless.

Norgesvenn: Come on... I know you got another AAR in you... YOU CAN DO IT!

Ironfoundersson · 04-06-2002, 23:08

This is an amazing start. How can the rest of the story ever be beter?
Well I'll be reading it with great antiucipation!

Wasa · 04-06-2002, 23:19

Like the trailer..where is the AAR?..

AugCaesar · 04-06-2002, 23:42

Very impressive...I shall read this religiously...can we expect the same glory we saw from scotland from little Cyprus? lol
