    Smile Pontus - Always outnumbered never outmatched (0.81 AAR)

    Dear friends,

    this is my first attempt in the AAR domain, but I hope you will enjoy it.

    It is a Pontic campaign, played on medium battles and very hard campaign difficulty on EB 0.81 with Darth formations and Redmeth balanced money and mercenary script. I took the freedom to use Force Diplomacy in the early game for the sole purpose to obtain a ceasefire, but only on condition of major victory and a reasonable tribus pacis - it was to allow me to role-play a bit and not to be forced to stam-rolling expansion.













































    Hope you enjoyed

    Is it a teaser for your next Pahlavan AAR? Looks like you're the one who will bring glory to the Wastelanders once more. Cyruzus will be back, Awarakaramazzz!

    Thumbs up Re: Pontus - Always outnumbered never outmatched (0.81 AAR)

    Great AAR ... AND WITH PONTUS ! ! ! !
    Though too short, I enjoyed it. Thx.

    Yours, Treverer
    Towards the end of the book, the Moties quote an old story from Herodotus:

    "Once there was a thief who was to be executed. As he was taken away he made a bargain with the king: In one year he would teach the king's favorite horse to sing hymns."
    "The other prisoners watched the thief singing to the horse and laughed. 'You will not succeed,' they told him. 'No one can.' To which the thief replied, 'I have a year, and who knows what will happen in that time. The king might die. The horse might die. I might die. And perhaps the horse will learn to sing.'"

    Thank you all for your kind reception of my AAR, it is a great encouragement for me.

    Oh yeah, I would like to try something like the immortal Waste Land by Arsaces, who in fact introduced me to EB through his amazing story, but I will do it my way - I am well aware that I can hardly stand any comparison with his opus magnum.

    I wish that EB 1.0 will provoke Arsaces to continue his story or start another one. I really miss his wonderful characters Cyruzuz, Kuna, the invincible 7of12 phalanx or the cool French Capitain and all the others. Hope they will return...

    Good luck

    I like your presentation, particularly the funnies. I couldn't help but gawk at the Epeirotes in that final campaign map shot...

    Good stuff :)

    Oh, and I forgot, maybe you could enlarge the pictures a bit, my old eyes got tired reading those small letters (but it was worth it!)
