A Bolshevik PBEM-AAR at SI-Games.com

[Hohenlohe]

Dear fellows, dear grognards,

as a longtime old strategy games fan I am not only a great Grigsby fan but since 2006 even a great AGEOD fan and so I have played most of the AGEOD titles based on the different AGE-Engines many times. Now I have started my first PBEM and at the same time my first PBEM-AAR at all.
In the current PBEM I am playing the Red side, although I wanted to play the Southern Whites because I love the Cossacks and their history. Some years ago I encountered some old Don Cossacks living here in Munich since WWII as I worked as a postman in their living area. So I have deep feelings for these freedom-loving people and their century-long fight against any suppressors in the Ukraina and Don and Kuban Area.

But now back to the topic. I am a member of the german strategy community mostly based at http://www.si-games.com with only about 3600 members and about 740 very active ones. The hardcore group of us are playing wargames for a very long time and we are supporting not only Paradox games but at the same time Matrixgames titles like WITP/AE with some decent good AARs and even some good TOAWIII or just some WITE AARs. BUt at the same time we are tTHE GERMAN AGEOD COMMUNITY and I understand myself as a very firm fan of AGEOD and therefore I started not only my first AAR with RUS and the Finland Scenario but now even my very first PBEM with the GC scenario as a Red- I was convinced by one of our very experienced AACW-player "Hasardeur" with a good PBEM-experience to take the Red side, but now we are still heavily in some fights and I am now in some trouble with my southern Red armies around Ekaterinador and Tsaritsyn.

For all you English-Speakers I must regret that my AAR is only in German because I want to make some propaganda for the AGEOD titles in our community.
So I suggest you to use either Babelfish or Google Translations to read the AAR in your language. Sorry for that...

Thanks for posting this, and for posting your AAR.

And you have screenshots -- lots of them -- for those of us who are, erm, 'deutsch-challenged'.

I, too, think highly of RUS, and find myself sneaking in 'just one more turn' - although I am nowhere near good enough for a PBEM.
