No need to type and spend hours....

The next 15 minutes

Original recording did not get voice audio so I had to insert voice audio, after the fact. Apologies for incidental noise and such and me with allergies :)

The situation certainly looks desperate.The only hope is that greek's offensive eventually slows down.Maybe you can use some of your reserve units by reducing the garrisons in the towns away from the battlefield.Good luck!

Main problem is no mil goods present, meaning his units are out of ammo and are genuine sitting ducks for the Greeks. :-(

"swords and spears"... As many of my younger friends would say, "old school", Ironic really, if you think about it. :)

I am trying to work out the kinks I had with this particular recording, if I can get them ironed out I will try to finish the gameplay as quickly as I can and post perhaps daily or every few days at least. Toying with the idea of setting my Youtube account to play video longer than 15 minutes, not sure if that would be too long to watch, comments?

I love watching/reading about difficult games or games that end up in defeat :) Thanks! Why not play SR:U, however?

Two things.

1. I had to order a new headset as the one I was using was almost 10 yeas old and when I listen to the youtube video of this AAR section I could hear hissing... Turns out, even with the new headset (Steel Series), there is hissing. My computer guys are trying to determine what the issue is, but currently they think it is a grounding issue.

2. I gave up the fight against the inevitable. STEAM name: GIJoe597

I actually made the account for my niece, she was 10-11 at the time and I did not want her info anywhere on the net. But I did not realize it was that long ago.


Concerning the AAR, I should get word from my computer guys this coming week.

Sorry for the delay, after many trials and errors the buzzing continues. I do not want to waste any more time searching for it. I have instructed my guys to assemble a new computer for me, it should do the job, and be buzz free.

EVGA 1000g2 Power Supply
Win 8.1 Pro
DVDBURN SATA Asus RW 2
Corsair Veng Pro 1866mhz 16gb RAM
Intel I7-4790K 1150 4GHZ
Geforce GTX 980 4GB DDR
WD 3.5 2TB 7200 x 3
Asrock Z97 Extreme 3 1150 Devil


Hopefully they will be done by mid this coming week and I will finish this AAR and maybe the RUS-UK also.

I have the new computer and all is well. I played some more of the Macedonia game and recorded it, to save me having to type.

The challenge continues;
