I like it too much the way it is to think of anything else atm, your style is well established.
Good luck with the exam [:)]

Yea good luck with exams! Do 'em good so you can make some more AAR for us! Maybe I could start one AAR in meantime, focusing on voyages of Picard's Enterprise or Defiant? Or maybe I could develop my own alternative Star Trek timeline with Elim Garak as captain of Galor ship!

That will be awesome....all of it [:D]

That will be awesome...

Now I feel obligated to make at least something! Tommorow I'll start (at least will try)!

Indeed, would be cool to see an AAR about a DW mod, nobody talks about those great mods. Ahh, the potential of this wee game!!!

Chapter 6: Blasted to pieces

Arrr, tha Big Boss be callin us all back to Pestulon. All raidin' parties 've been canceled and many bases abandoned. Nobody be tellin' us a thing. 'Tis going to be at least a couple of months till me mateys and meself be arriving at the ol' planet.


ARRRRR NOOOO!!!!! When we be arrvin' we be seein' the ARgos planet killer blowin' up our poor dusty rock!!! Tha big Boss is gone, everyone is gone!!! We be fightin'!!!


Arrrrr, They be gettin' us!!!AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!



And so, the leadership of the pirates of Pestulon gone, the rest of them surrendered to the nearest governments and joined their navy, being far too numerous for anyone to afford jail expenses.

THE END....






APRIL FOOLS!!!

Hahaha, got ya. What april fools joke is better than one later than you would expect it?[:D]

Stay tuned for the next webisode in a short while.

Not funny ya jerk! [:D]
Da Big Boss canna die 'fore havin' enslaved all dem gits! More Dakka and BeamSpam
EDIT: I'll do SO much BeamSpam if/when the proper beam cannons are added to DW. You can never have enough Beams!
Bash dem landlubbers!

Reminds me: I should get my own advertised AAR going soon.

Chapter 6: Queer happenings


ARRR!!! As the holds be gettin' fatter, and we be gettin' older as well as our shippies, The Big Boss be doin' some upgradin'. The new cruiser design be bigger than the ol' birds, but faster, and more resilient. The smugglin' ports be gettin' an upgrade as well, with the new hospital facilities helpin' "getting rid of" sickness(many be much better now, population surplus on Pestulon also miraculously gone,hehe) and the new bars keepin' the lads always drunk.




'Tis been a couple of weeks since our last raid and me mateys be getting restless. But we be getting the call soon enough to raid the toad mining facilities. Our men inside their numbers be hinting us all valuable targets within striking range. The new base be a boon fer us, allowing us to strike with a speed never before seen so far. Andat base be our main launch site now, with 2 R-ships within spittin' distance. R8 be comin' to be supportin' us as well. The frogs be rebuildin' too fast for raidin' speed so we be needin' to hit more targets at once to make them submit.



We still be havin' trouble from the Imperial Kiadians, who be thinkin' their main concern be us and not the other empires they are at war with. They be sendin' their fleets after our Rs-ships. Methinks they be needin' a wee bit o'grog to come to their senses.


'Tis nice to be hearin' that the teekan Lorideos rats be as viscious as ever. They be declarin' war on the Axom dynasty, the greatest threat to the galaxy, and they be assaultin' with their wee ships. I be admirin' their courage, but not their recklessness....


The Mortalens of the Yitnes system be very queer indeed. They be forgin' two distinct empires and they be settlin' all the planets in the system, without even botherin' to leave for better prey. Nevertheless, they be provin' a good node for our smugglers to get lost in, as they be peaceful enough to trade with everyone.


All be goin' well with the raidin' until the Argos be decidin' to accept a bribe to get rid of us. 'Tis not nice that they be stoopin' so low as to take mercenary contracts, but at least they be honest about it. Hopefully, their planet killer be far from Pestulon....


Finally we be gettin' to Andat base for refuellin'. This be much faster than the last time we really needed fuel. On to gettin' some toad legs for the good ol' cook down in the kitchen.


The Republic has not given up on huntin' us, even with all their wars. Me be hearin' of their warships searchin' for our hideouts everywhere.


ARRRRRRR!!!! Terrible,terrible news!!! We be hearin' that the Argos be closin' in on Pestulon. But they be going fer the Teekans!! Their first colony to fall was destroyed by the Argos world killer just as it dropped out of hyperspace!!! So much food for the Mortalen be wastin'. Why they be doin' such a thing!!!????



And if that not be enough, an Axom fleet entered the Teekan system soon after the World Killer and its fleet.



What we be hearin' next after a few days, me not be believin'.............the rats launched a suicide attack against the Argos fleet and boarded all the ships !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They be takin' the whole fleet, be loadin' as many survivors as they could and they be jumpin' out. Our people be hearin' they be headin' for a suicidal run on the Axom!!! Me be bowin' to the rats, they be havin' more guts than the whole rabble of Pestulon itself....


The rest of the teekan worlds be sharin' the same fate soon enough though.....the Argos be cruel, ARRRRR ,and that comin' from a swashbuckler like meself be meanin' somethin...


Meanwhile, soon after the queer news be reachin' us, we be arrivin' at our raidin' site. The spaceport of Azain be nothin' more than a moorin' spot fer freighters. It be fallin' to our guns faster than you can swear and spit at the same time.



I be hearin' about the new plan of The Big Boss fer all the new coin we be gettin' from smugglin', but I not be concerning meself too much with it...until I be hearin' that many governments be stayin' their hands from huntin' us anymore and soon enough, that the Argos be havin' a civil war, with a new faction flamin' anew in the north of their homeworld!!!




Our man aboard the Argos Planet buster be tellin' us that after the revolution the big bug not be makin' any movement. For several months the thing be stayin' in the remains of the teekan worlds.(*note that I have my scout selected. It appears it somehow got "stuck" on the world destroyer because every time I selected it it showed me the world destroyer, and of course, sensor data of the surroundings*)


Our boys of R10 be gettin' some action, I be hearin'. An Argos AND a toad huntin' party went for our R-ship 1 in the Kareda system, after knowin' about it for years. Fortunately, the toads be sendin' only a few ol' cruisers and destroyers, while the Argos destroyers, and the greatest challenge, their capital ship. Fortunately, since both parties be arrivin' so close to each other, they be confusin' themselves enough so that our boys be cripplin' their fleets and forcin' the big capital ship to be runnin'. ARRRRRR! A toast to the mateys of R10!



Soon after the end of another raid by R8 and me boys, and their shameful messin'up with R10, the toads be decidin' that they be too proud fer their own good and they be agreein' to be payin' the price of safety!!! ARRRRR! And not soon enough the Argos be too ashamed to continue the hunt as well, AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! Fer two days and two nights we be drinkin' in the name of The Big Boss!!! He be knowin' how to lossen' their tongue.



-End of chapter-


Sorry for the delay, had to figure out where I was with this. Enjoy!

NEXT: We be huntin' space Krakens!!!!


Cheers

heeyy, the pestulonians are back....and it's no april fools either

Glad you be enjoying it matey, 'tis only a matter o'time till we be getting to the republic capital....to loot the place dry. The events just keep precipitating and getting more surprising every time. I've never had such an eventful game before, honestly. Like the thing with the Teekans capturing the Argos fleet, that was phenomenal. The surprises this game offers just keep coming. If the original has so many unknowns to me yet, I can only imagine how ROTS will run me down into the ground with amazement.

Enjoying it is an understatement, even the title you put on it made me go back to the entire SQ series, not just the third one (I think that was the one actually named pirates of pestulon).
So great work all around with this AAR

Thanks a lot. I'll try to keep it fun then.

Yep, the SQ series was fun. Good old days. Why is it always the good old days and not the good present days?[8|]

Even though some old games are genuinely good it's usually the nostalgia factor. Some people just seem to love to live in the past. No offence meant.

But we wants the present, we wants the future....but there's no followup on that, today most of them are about combat and shallow plots and such.

Many of the todays game indeed have shallow plots and too much combat. But, there's still many complex, great and unique (Try to imagine Patapon series in the 90's. Quite "easy" isn't it?) games out there if you look closely. The thing that has changed is the ratio of complex and unique games to other, casual games and their visibility in gaming media in general.

"Money smells" as we use to say here in Finland. Complex games won't sell enough to generate money for greedy gaming companies. There's always more casual gamers than us "hardcore" gamers. It's the fact we have to accept.
I hate. Hate it so much. But that's the world we live in.
Best way to fight against this trend is to support indie (and other) developers, who have the balls to make really different and deep games, as much as possible.

That's my take on this issue anyway.  

Same take here, J, I fully agree with all of it...we even have the same saying here in Romania [:)]
