What does it take to make a good AAR?

I genuinely can't think of an AAR that was "flamed down" here. The worst that would happen would be people giving you constructive advice on how to make it better, my Pahlav campaign isn't great but all I have had is encouragement from other members. I hope you do put up an AAR on your campaign, the Sweboz are still the only faction I have taken to a victory on EB so they will always be one of my favourites.

Just write your story and don't worry too much about replies. Even if you don't get any replies, keep writing and eventually you will get frequent replies and steady viewers.

Also, don't get too discouraged if your AAR doesn't get too many replies. A fair few people don't post a lot in other people's AARs (myself included) simply because we don't want to clutter up the thread with replies, which, for me, get in the way of reading the actual content.

oh, btw, I read your Sweboz intro, promising start, I look forward to reading more.

I am also one of those people, I usually only post when an AAR begins to let the person know I will be following.
I have noticed that, although I get few posts, when I put up a new chapter in my AAR the views shoots up, so that would probably be the best way to gauge whether people are following.
