Tommy4ever's AAR History:
Defenders of Freedom and Democracy - A Democratic German AAR In this HoI2 AAR a Democratic Germany brings back the Kaiser after a Civil war against the Nazis and allies with Britain against an enlarged Communist Block consisting of: USSR, France, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Belgium and Italy. The Anglo-German alliance later fight Japan and Rommel crosses the Himalayas with Panzers. This alliance then breaks up during a Cold War in the mid-40s when Britian sides with the US. The AAR then ends shortly after the finaly showdown between Germany and the Anglo-Americans begins. Views: 89,000 This won Weekly AAR Showcase status: abandoned due to extreme slowdown of game. The game was updates nearly everyday for 6 months and is 60 pages long so there's plenty to read ![]() … the whole rotten edifice will come crashing down – A Russian AAR This is a Victoria AAR which basically starts out with a weakened Russia. I think I get mabye 20 years into the game before I had to abandon it. Still 3 pages and there aren't too many comments in Vicki AARs so there is a decent amount to read. Views: 2,700 status: abandoned due to loss of save file. It only lasted about 2 weeks ![]() The Greatest of Endeavours Demand The Greatest of Sacrifices - A British AAR In HoI2 again. The British Empire stands alone against an enlarged Axis consisting of Germany, France, Italy, Hungary and Turkey. There is also a Sino-Japanese alliance (at war with the Soviets since 1936) to contend with at a later date and of course the Americans and Russians if Britain is to secure world peace under British rule. Its going to be a long ride ... Views: 19,800 status: Abandoned due to time restraints Through Rivers of Blood and Mountains of Gold - The Story of The House of D'Albon I've now completed this AAR it is Loved ever update . Starts out with the usual rags to riches story as the D'Albons quickly advance from petty Counts, to powerful Kings and then glorius Emperors. The Empire then gets divided with the AAR following the D'Albons in the Holy Land. D'Albon Jerusalem expands and becomes the Roman Empire. Last few decades of AAR see world dominance ensured. Featuring Schisms, Crusades, fratricide and all sorts of Medieval fun. ![]() Views: 8,200 This won me WritAAR if the Week This won me Lord Strange Cookie of British Excellence: ● status: COMPLETED! Austriae est imperare orbi universo - a Habsburg AAR I'm really enjoying this - even more so than my CK one. Follows the Habsburg dynasty rather than Austria and shall feature major wars, Austrian colonialism, dynastic rivalry and religious chaos - and this is just Part One! Part Two meanwhile follows the Age of Revolutions. It features numerous Revolutions in the Americas but much more importantly the French Revolution. The French Revolutionary Wars lead to the rise of Napoleon which in turn escalates the conflicts in Europe as the Continent remains ablaze until the French Empire finally falls once and for all in 1815. Meanwhile after this the Age of Revolutions grinds on but at a much slower rate - Part Two ends with the ascension of an Emperor who means to turn Austria into a democracy. After a century of wealth, oppulence, social change and Empire Austria hurtles into the disasterous Great War. Following defeat in the war (1912-1915) Austria enters a Civil War and the Habsburg dynasty collapses. Views: 37,500 Part One (1399-1785) has been completed Part Two (1785-1837) has been completed Part Three (1837-1908) has been completed Part Four (1908-1918) has been completed This won me Lord Strange Cookie of British Excellence: ● status: Completed! Our Ambition Shall Never Falter – a House of Graziano AAR (Part 1) Another CK AAR this follows a House descended form Norman knights that was founded in the Holy Land, starting out as rulers of Acre in a hostile world. That very House shall go on to rule all Palestine, the Holy Roman Empire and later Egypt. Views: 2,300 status: abandoned

The Oracle
Hi, I'm using this opportunity to advertise my AARs. I'm a happy owner of HoI2 ARM *Unfortunaly on steam so I don't get a pretty pic under my sig* and I'll buy AoD as soon as it comes out. Hearts of Iron 2 is one of the few games that I never really stopped playing and I wanted my first AAR to showcase my home country the Netherlands, because there can never be enough Dutch AARs.
Je Maintendrais. An a-historical Dutch AAR ![]() Je Maintendrais is imprinted on the royal Dutch Shield. It's French for "I will persevere" and that is exactly what I plan to do. For too long have the Dutch sit by and permitted themselves to be used as a playball for the other European Countries. No more! With the kidnapping by Belgium soldiers of the Kaiser in 1925, the Dutch have grown more resistant to the influence of the Allied countries and in the 1930s increased cooperation with the Germans. But as European tensions rise, is the Netherlands ready for the change it will bring? I will use mods to improve the historical content of the game, for the Netherlands is certainely not a neglected country in HOI2 but could be a lot better. It's also important to me to keep some kind of historical plausibility. Although invading Belgium in 1936 is fun, historically the backlash would be the end of the little nation. But, I will say, an invasion of Belgium is definetely in the works. Because what's a Dutch AAR without the invasion of Belgium? Blasphemy, that's what it is! I'm a big fan of keeping AARs neat and organised and I will do my best to make the layout of the AAR easy on the eyes. There will also be plenty of pictures.

My List of AARs is so overshadowed by the guy above me.....
But anyways, Here is my Inkwell. I will probably only ever have this AAR, it takes me like five years to play one game.
Currently, I have one AAR; an EU3 IN MMP2.15 HB AAR. Hows that for Fun with Acronyms? A Tale of Two Germanies Sadly, I have no fun pictures yet. Though I'm working on it...

Arya V.'s Inkwell Hey guys, and welcome to my Inkwell. I'm a student in High School, started playing Hoi2 first in 2007 and branched off to different games; I never really started AARs untill 2008, where I noticed that writing AARs could in fact improve my writing, which I like to do very much, while playing my favorite type of games. I like writing, reading, playing drums, violin and piano, playing chess, and I used to program; I was working on a game called "SimNation", a simulation of population happiness and the general politics of the world, but unfourtuanately it is now discountinued. Glad to be a part of AARLand, and hopefully you guys like my AARs. ![]() _______________________________________ First AAR and completely abandoned, trying to create the Persian Empire in the Modern Day Era using the MDS mod. Just putting it here for the record but it was really my first AAR so it largely used as a staging ground for my later AARs. All the pictures have in fact been deleted, so by now it should be a very boring read. _______________________________________ Second AAR and abandoned... for now. Trying to potray Rommel's Tunisia Counterattack narrated by myself. Personally, I thought this was a good idea, but because Hoi3 isn't looking too good now, and because I lost my notebook with all my writing of it in it, I just decided to move on. I intend on finding that notebook however, so maybe one day this can come back on the scene ______________________________________ ![]() Austria Under Fire: A History of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine 1836-1914 Suprise, surprise, another abandoned AAR. My third AAR on the Austrian Empire in Victoria. I consider this my first real AAR; all other ones were just tests, really. Still trying to find a style I really like, so there's a lot of switching from narrative to history book, etc. Very aggressive gameplay, so expect to see a whole lot of wars. _______________________________________
__________________
War loses a great deal of its romance after a soldier has seen his first battle. I have a more vivid recollection of the first than the last one I was in. It is a classical maxim that it is sweet and becoming to die for ones country; but whoever has seen the horrors of a battlefield feels that it is far sweeter to live for it.

![]() A short while ago I was playing an HTTT-game with France when a series of events happened that were in such a perfect coordination with each other that I began thinking up a story behind it all. It takes place during 1570 and 1650 and involves all your favorite elements: France, catholics, huguenots, foreign interventions and court intrigues. And it is possible that the Cathars might have a role in this all. Enjoy! |
