Excellent aar, excited for more!

Thank you very much.

[The material and writing is there. It's just time for editing and uploading that is lacking. But we'll see, as I'm back on a proper schedule now.]

Looking forward to it TBC, as many are I suspect. But you have been very generous with your time as a commentatAAR in the meantime. :)
 
Is this AAR seriously dead? Just before the Grand Crusade and Galahads later shenanigans!

Well, the game portion seems to be after progressive updates and sweeps. However, before that time I had all of Galahad, Galahad II and George I done. So yes, the AAR could carry on to a finish if there was still interest. It would simply end with the Georgian Reforms that basically changed the entire empire anyway.
 
I, and many others I presume, would love for this AAR to continue. This is undoubtely one of the best and in-depth AARs ever. It would be a shame if it ended so abruptly with such a cliffhanger

Speaking as a long time can I know I would welcome a continuation! :)

Would always be happy to see it, TBC. As an old membAAR used to say...Write On! :)
 
Hmm...alright. Will try one more time to get the save working as well. So I actually have a chapter half done before whenever that hospital visit was so I could probably resume that again fairly quickly if people want it. I then have screenshots and gameplay/notes for another hundred years or so, before the gam smashed and burned. That's plenty of time for either the save file to be fixed or to bring everything to a satisfying conclusion.

In the meantime...I've been musing on a small scale CKII AAR challenge my brother set based on trying to play a Lancaster game on the earliest start. Given that I'd start as either a one county or two county earl under the thumb of Mercia or Northumbria, then would have to not only fight both but also pretty much immediately have to deal with the Viking age starting as well, I think it'd be a 'can you survive' game.
Alternatively, Mr C. has been giving me permission to do a mildly interactive AAR, which would fit a merchant republic game very well. And then I realised that no one seems to have tried to make noob Ireland a merchant republic...

Any interest?

Any? Lots of it!
 
Strongly interested both in the continuation of this AAR and the Irish republic idea.

The Lancaster AAR is very nearly ready to begin, and hopefully this one can get back up and running again presently.

Irish republic would be really good if I can figure out a good voting and roleplay system. Because of the nature of the game, if I create the republic from an Irish tribe, the council has supreme power over everything and I'm pretty much relegated to a fairly powerful chairman role. Which I think could be very interesting, but potentially very aggravating to play if there wasn't an AAR supporting it.

Edit: Also this AAR has somehow been read nearly 75,000 times, which is an awful lot considering it's spent more years inactive than active?
