Among Sweboz, Romani, and KH, which have reforms and how do those work? Am I correct in remembering that KH only has MoT reform that's automatically triggered? What about Sweboz and Romani?

True. Video AARs seem great for those who already play the game, while tutorial-like videos introducing the game would be great for those fairly new or brand new to the game, as you said yourself.

Otherwise, keep up the good work. hope to see more vids. You also inspired me to start a Hai game and I am doing well. Keep inspiring!
I'll be completely honest with you. Because it was my first (and to date, last) time that I made such a video AAR (or chronicle, or whatnot), I didn't know what to expect, what to do. And at times, I was quite bored. I think it was because it was one of the last times I was going to play that campaign, as I had played Hai many, many times, to thoroughly acquaint myself with it. The problem with lists is that you'll never end up stating anything on your list. If you record live, you'll speak as per your live actions. If post-recorded, you'll speak as per your actions on screen (sounds even worse as there's a mental processing delay). Good luck with your campaign.
