and i'd like some input on who the community would like to see an AAR centred around
i won't be doing a Makedonian AAR since I simply cannot compete with MAA, probably won't be a Romani either as there seems to be an abundance of these around at the moment
i'll start a poll with the four most popular ideas
Personally, I would like to see a Ptolemaioi AAR. I think they are underrepresented. Anyway, I wish you luck with whatever your choice is going to be.
thanks for wishing me luckQuote:

I don't think I've ever even SEEN a Ptolemaioi AAR. Maybe it has something to do with the whole "marrying your sister" thing, or maybe it's their easy starting situation. With Makedonians, Hellenes, Aigyptians, Jews, Galatians, Kypriots, and Anatolians, there's all sorts RP potential, though. Personally, the thought of a native Aigyptian rebellion has always appealed to me.
I don't think I've ever seen a Sauromatae AAR either, now that I think about it.
do a pontos one i dont think ive ever seen one for them or maybe a getai
AEDUI! AEDUI! The last one of those was my own. OMG.
How bout and Epieros one? Although a Ptolemy one would be fun too. Or a Sauramatai...
a proper stteppe faction aar is yet to be written, the description of the terrible winters the hearding of catle the gathering of the clans to avenge an insult from the horrible horrible stinky people from the sea shore who live behinde the stone walls
a proper aar would be a mix beteween the life of gengis khan (remember the abduction of the wife the expel and all of that) and a western with the hearding of catle around long distances and the mighty cavalry attacks/charges
the suffering and the hardship of the caracters make for a proper interesting story (add in a bad birth with the children being born dead as an omen for bad things and make a poem about the strenght of men to bend the wheel of fortune to it´s own wishes )
i mean seriusly with a bit of research you can make an historical aar that represents the strugle and magnificence of the steppe people
or if you want another aproach but still with a nomad faction make an aar based on the arabians/africans from the desert :oops::sweatdrop:
Do a Sweboz one. I havent seen one of those in over a year.
is yours ceased now?Quote:

Moonburn, I was thinking about something like that, I have many ideas, I just have to start a campaign.
Ptolemaioi seems to be an proper optionQuote:
