Al Boone -> Best recommended AARs? (1/25/2010 7:25:13 PM)
I am up to date on Shattered Vow which is a game between Canoerebel and Miller. Canoerebel has done a wonderful AAR on this game. I couldn't stop reading it. It's better than any movie! Does anyone have a recommendation for other AARs? These are wonderful experience and training tools.

I recommend four: Cuttlefish vs. Q-Ball http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2254468 http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2255131 jwilkerson vs. jrcar http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2197882 http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2200574 These are my favorites. A very nice mix of strategy, tactics, harassment of the other guy, and an amazing amount of knowledge.

Anything that Cuttlefish pens. John III will also teach you a thing or two in an entertaining AAR.

I wish I could do an AAR of my own to run alongside his, but I just dont have the time or writing prowess. Plus as he is the boss he can run turns whilst at work[;)]

Q-Ball -> RE: Best recommended AARs? (1/25/2010 9:03:32 PM)
The most popular AARs, and I think the BEST ones, are two-sided, where each opponent has one. I personally love Dual-AARs, which is why when I looked for an opponent for my game with Cuttlefish, I specifically asked for someone who would write an AAR. Cuttlefish is the best writer around, I'm sure many want to see a reprise of Voyages of the Hibiki........not in our AAR though (Why? You'll just have to read it!)[:D]

John 3rd -> RE: Best recommended AARs? (1/25/2010 9:32:53 PM)
Thanks Tocaff! Owe you another $5.00. I will be trying my first campaign in a couple of weeks and will have an AAR to accompany it. Every AAR is different and provides all sorts of perspective. I REALLY like to cover strategy and operational planning (plus some serious crying/whining [8\|]) within my pages. REALLY think the best AARs is where each player is writing one so you can go back and forth. In that regard Dan Roper and I had one heck of an AAR running with WitP that made it to the end of 1944. Great experience and a lot of fun. The multi-player AARs are great too...fun to read the back-and-forth between the players...

[&o] - 100% agree; both of these also contain excellent advice on how to manage the Japanese economy - don't know what I'd do without these AAR threads...

Be careful reading any that Cap Mandrake pens/types - especially when drinking. Unless you don't mind the taste/smell of whatever your drinking embedded in your nostrils as you violently expel it all over your PC and monitor while uncontrollably laughing.

John That was $50, not $5! I'll tell you some guys................... I only wish that I could play as well as John, Canoerebel, Cuttlefish and Qball just to name a few. That would help me to make my WITP AAR much more interesting, though a conservative (me) Allied player just into 8/42 doesn't have much to beat the drums with until about now. [;)]

Speedysteve -> RE: Best recommended AARs? (1/26/2010 9:29:56 PM)
This one's not bad: http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=2310325 [;)] In all honesty, I'm far from the best writer as I'm sure is recognised compared to the likes of Cuttlefish and Q-Ball's for example. Highly recommend their's.........
