Thanks, Its good to know people enjoyed it. - and its always great to watch others play a game, its a good way to learn. shame there are fewer AAR's, and even fewer who can get to the end.

Also a shame that my computer died on me last night. loosing all the prep work for the next AAR. I should be able to get a new system sometime next week. (thank god for savings) but it'll be a bit longer until I can rebuild the work I'd done.

The confederacy will rise though. that much is certain.

Thanks.

New computer has arrived, (finally) and I've got FoF and Photoshop back on, now to restart the prep work for the confederate side.

Just flicking through the AAR to get some ideas before I start the next one and I came across this.

Grey Hunter,
Great AAR you have going. I thought you (not to mention your devoted fans) would like to know that it looks like we're going to be having an AAR contest once the new patch goes gold. Nothing officially announced, but it seems that first prize will be a cavalry saber. Note that this is absolutely not a reason for you to stop with this one, of course. And I'll also say that as far as I'm concerned (and I'd be one of the judges), the concept of going back in time, incapacitating Lincoln, hiding him behind a fake wall and then taking over is your intellectual property, so if anyone tries to use that one they'll be starting off with a substantial penalty...



I this still going to happen? If so I'll hold off on the next AAR untill then, if it was just an idea, I may well throw myself into the next one this weekend.

The formal announcement will provide all the details, but I'll add that the contest will not involve people writing up massive, multi-page AAR's with 60 megs' worth of screenshots. There will be a limit of just a few thousand words and a relatively small number of screenshots. (This will keep the judges both sharp and sane.) So, you (or anyone else) can certainly work on a major AAR in addition to preparing an entry for the contest -- in other words, don't let the contest hold you up from starting a new AAR, since the sort of AAR this thread features and the sort that will be submitted for the contest are quite different in scope.

Wonderful,

You have a talent.  One wonders what you do in the real world.  Mind you, I am not asking.  I look forward to your posts.

If you're referring to me is there a problem?

BigJ62, your avatar always makes me think you're angry about something, until I realize that's your avatar and not a giant emoticon. Gets me every time.

The angry emoticons are rather popular on the CM forums at BF.C. I think the emoticons are kind of silly depending on context.

It was pushed so hard, that it was finally announced this week. When will we see the submitted entries and which of them, only the three winners or all of them?
