My first AAR…

Haven’t written anything since school so please forgive my poor attempt to win the Nobel prize… About spelling… I’m suck… Please don’t complain to me, send all spelling issues to:

Mr Gates, US

and complaint on their spell check in Word 2000…

If my English teacher did know what I was going to do she probably crawl back up from her grave… the only subject I am worse in then spelling is English… ( I hear some objection from the grave beside… Ohhh my German teacher…

About pictures, be surprised if any… My computer skills is equal to my spelling knowledge.

I’m have played 1.06 5-6 times now and quitted al of those games in 40-41 due to cheating from the AI (well they beat me, they MUST be cheating.. )


So.. I’m playing on 1.06 (if I have installed it correctly, ha, I might be still playing on 1.00..)

The setting is Very hard /Furious. (which the ones who actually will read this AAR will wonder why I chose.. won’t it be more fun to beat Denmark?)

The only change to the game is in my naming and handling of the size of the air units. in my mind each units represent one “Gruppe” (which a name as an example I/JG 2. II/JG 2, III /JG 2) which roughly makes 40 planes or soo for each HoI units...

I wont give a full report of everything I research, I will give some clues about what have been made and so on in the text…, maybe like this “ the new brand of the machine gun proved to be good during the Italian campaign”
 
Chapter I

Berlin, Germany, winter of 1936, OKW, room 206.

The clerk (ancestors form one of the clerks POPs in Preussia) look at the list of the commanders of the Werhmacht… its just have to be a stop, no one seams to do anything on this issue. If you did it like this he tells himself, the room is silent, only the pen against the paper can be heard as well as some distant walking in the corridors. The clerk looks up at the clock, its time to go home he thinks… its well past 2 o’clock. when leaving the big grey building he gets the low standing winter sun in his face… he smiles and walk down the strasse.

Jodl is hurrying down the corridor… I have to find someone still around to type this report.. He heads toward room 206… He throw the door open and is greeted by an empty room @#& ther is some infantery division which just have get reinforced by an ex clerk he tells himself in a load voice… then his eyes falls on a list on the desk…

The pen must have come to ha fast halt Jodl thinks… He leaves the room with the list in his hand… Looks up beside the dor.. Z206, C. W. Banner, payments. its read…

32 minutes later an worker walks down the corridor with a screwdriver and a piece of paper in the hand. He stops outside room 206, check once more and start then to take down the name beside the door. Poor bastard he thinks as he works…
 
Fight, win, prevail! <-- My usual comment for AARs/Command & Conquer theme song.
 
Chapter II

The new room at the top floor had a stunning view over Tiergarten in the west. Banner didn’t enjoy the view, he had more urgent problems. A nervous cough at the door did however catch is attention and as he focused on the rather small man in the door way a small glimpse of recognition spread throughout his face. Where had he seen this man before.. As his mind was fully occupied on his task he told the man in the door, “Black, with no sugar.. , the coffee!” The man disappeared with quick step down the corridor as Banner read the sheet. “5. Cat like animal, 5 letters horizontal”

5 Minutes later another man enters the room, Ahh Herr Goebbels, Banner said.. Please take a seat… -Disaster, disaster. Goebbels reply came as he sat down on the chair -No one in Österreich did listen last night on our broadcast, NO ONE! Banner looked at them man. “What music did u play?” -Music? Goebbels eyes wandered the room. Music? We did broadcast information about the new Germany to our brothers in Österreich!. Well please consider to play some popular music next time to get their attention and then, little by little start to send our propag.. I mean the information… -Goebbel looked at the man, verry well, you might have a point there he said.. As Goebbels leaves the room Banner shouts out, Wait! Do u know any animal with 5 letters starting with T? When Goebbels close the door banner can hear him shout “Min Fuhrer” in the corridor. Just seconds later Banner gets his coffee.

One way to solve your logistics problem is to press F12, then type "supplies," "transports," and assorted other cheats until situation is resolved. Not that I do that... feeling awkward. Stop staring... stop judging... SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!
