    Default Announcing: Interactive History VI

    Yes, I'm back for yet another round of hard work, long hours, endless fun and supreme inspiration.

    Let it be known that there are reasons for my long absence. I am sorry that I haven't told anyone of this, but it was something that grew slowly out of the cold, until one day I couldn't turn back.
    Also, while I am here, I'm not here in the same sense as previously, at least I don't think so. Not yet...

    Now to the matter at hand, the new IH.

    The title this time won't relate to either a famous person, nor worldaffecting situations and decisions. It is to a single unknown person.

    Interactive History VI: Warrior's Ambition

    There are circumstances around 'the warrior' I won't yet reveal, but let's just say he is connected to a previous IH. I have chosen the grand Eastern Front once again because of the very varied options you get picking it. That part of history is filled with many turningpoints, with innovation, with horrible acts as well as noble ones... Nothing can ever truly be set in stone relating to it. Besides there is another reason for that choice, 'the warrior's' relation to another IH.

    It will be in third person this time. I found it was hard to create a personality in second person... Little wonder second person is so relatively unused by authors. It limits the writing. However it also has benefits, it draws the reader in, the writer writes specifically to the reader. But now I hope to expand a little, to perhaps see events from different views than the single main character.

    Also, this IH will move away from the grand decisions and warchanging options, instead it will relate to smaller scales. Impacts can of course be made, but winning the war is, at the moment, outside the capabilities of the main character. But perhaps he can rise to the challenge?
    You may not care about war, but war cares about you!

    How about a German company commander pushing on Leningrad?

    1. It involves infantry, something often forgotten in modern combat.
    2. Leningrad, the key to north.

    Whoo Kraxis interactive.

    Have you just been dumped?

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    Kraxis my friend - so good to see you back - the return of the master. I look forward to playing as an active part as ever in your wonderful tales.
    It sounds as if life has been tough recently - I hope that is behind you now.

    Yay, nice to see you back, and you couldn't have chosen a better time to start an IH , I was as a matter of fact thinking as late as only a few days ago: how nice if there would be another of these !

    Thank you...

    Nice to feel appreciated.

    I won't say much about the story as of yet. I like to keep the few little ohh-moments to myself. In IH stories they are desperately few, so no point in ruining what little there is.
    They will also be better in the story... At least I hope so.
