A double award seems merited just for the scope of the ambition, Imperator to Stellaris is a huge span. Congratulations @RedTemplar

An excellent choice, I should set TBC challenges more often, it appears he responds very well to them.
Congratulations @TheButterflyComposer, enjoy being the Christmas winner!

Oo, thank you very much.
Thanks be to all.
Never done a challenge AAR before, they're quite fun. I'm about at the level with HOI4 where I can give them a good go.
It's thrown into focus stuff which I sort of knew about the game but didn't really think about. Revealed how in some ways the game is a good simulation and the big gaps still making historical play difficult.
It's also quite fun and quick to write, just a ww2 timeline and some thinking about why the game followed or was faster or slower to it.
The only downside is it being so image heavy that I spend more time cropping and inserting those than writing chapters.
But overall it's been a fun and succesful experiment so far, and we are still on track to complete up to 1945 by years end. What happens after that I leave up to readers, and whether or not the war is actually over on time.

A fine challenge, TBC and I applaud! I have read some of it and while I know nothing about HoI4, I like what you've done. Congrats.
Now don't forget to pass it off when the time comes.

Righto. Last award of the year.
Taurica Part 2: Middle Ages 450 - 1300AD
A very interesting continuation of the Imperator game focusing on a crimean based empire and civilisation throughout history.
This megacampaign utilises copious mods and total conversions to cover all of history from the end of Alexander's Empire through to late antiquity collpase, and we're currently going through the early middle ages and have just reached the high medieval age, with a focus on a ruler travelling the entire known world All the way to China and back.
A very interesting alternative history that I hope stays the course and goes into the early modern period with a state and civ that has existed more or less consistently in the Black Sea and Steppe for thousands of years.
Whether that ends in doom and decline as industrlisation comes, or the country manages to reach the Baltic sea and become a sort of Russia is far in the future.
A good read and game to watch. Well done @kakom
