AAR: Varshavianka- The People's War - Discussion thread

[Buster's Uncle]

Fame at last. 

IIRC, there's 15 posts to a page.  If you made some very short entries to fill out the page you're on, you be able to embed videos again on the next...

Mhm... I am going to just do a writing interlude I am thinking... Also, your thoughts overall folks? What is your thoughts on recent events? Gameplay situation? Discuss.

[Buster's Uncle]

It's so complex that I'm not sure I understand how the war is going.  I definitely took the scorched earth tactics to mean that the northernmost Comrades base was about to get taken...

[JarlWolf]

Haven't lost a base yet, and I don't think I will now that I have new weapons... but if I didn't get that breakthrough things may have been much more ambiguous.

Also, I have a feeling that me and Sepsu are on our own continent or that Sepsu is what is between me and the others...

Edit: With the war, previously BUncle if you want a summary: I was using sabotage scorch policies on the enemy and his territory, cutting roads and destroying improvements to lag them behind as best I could, then divert my forces and do a strike first policy in order to kill any invaders. Using that, I have managed to stave off the Imperium, even with far inferior weapons. Now that I have laser weaponry, it may not be up to par with the Imperium's impact rifles, but it is enough to easily punch through their synthemetal armoured troops with ease and I can start taking their cities from them. Getting those lasers is effectively a turning point in this war, it's already looking up.

I believe I will be making a small post in the near future, stay tuned. Probably within the next bit, maybe even less.
Will also have a special treat for you with this one, so keep an eye out.

Edit: I am going to record a bit of voice lines, as Vazheli will be delivering a speech and I think its high time his message was heard... should be interesting.

You might seriously consider making some shorter installments - it's been 16 days, which is too long between updates.  Also, ten more posts, and you're rolled over to the next page and videos will embed again...

[JarlWolf]

I am considering shorter installments, but I am also waiting on a poster to be created/other stuff. My AAR isn't a constant flux of posts, its more of a crafted story people can return to any time they want.

I do realize your point though. And rest assured, I am making preparations for the next post and will be making shorter, quicker posts once this massive one is done.

[JarlWolf]

Progress is being made... You guys are going to be in for a really nice treat and if you got a radio gadget thing... You'll be able to listen to the story. And yes, I said listen, next post is going audio! (Least for a part of it.)

What sorcery is this!?

[Buster's Uncle]

He turns gallons of vodka into multimedia stories of SMACX games, that's what.  Nobody knows the spell he uses.

[JarlWolf]

Also, thoughts on characters so far, and maybe to prod more conversation, their actions as of late?

[JarlWolf]

Avast ye! 
I'm working on it, honest! I just am trying to get the audio composition right, imagery etc. This one is all about quality over quantity my friend, and even then the quantity is still pretty big. It's just time is killed like a chicken in an over zealous slaughterhouse.

[Arbee]

I'm actually sitting down to actually read this now.  Will let you know what I think whenever I'm done, haha.

[Arbee]

Aaaand done.  I like the style, especially the fact that you don't have to know all that much about the game itself to follow your AAR.

It certainly looks like Equity et Community has a fight on its hands.  While I still don't know much about how things work, I'm of the opinion that you should kick some ass on the border there and take back Garland Crater.  A hero died there, man, you can't let the Imperium get away with putting their stinking hands all over it!
