Here's my AAR: http://home.epix.net/~mcasey/aarMAY.html

Regretfully, all my screenshots were wiped out during some hard drive shenanigans, so this is all text, mostly composed from memory. :(

I wrote it somewhat differently. Since this was my first time doing one of these things for a computer game it is written from the perspective of the Terran President. (This is usually how I wrote post-game analyses while playing PBEM Diplomacy as well.)

Anyway, thanks again for running the competition, whoever is running it. This AAR refers to the game posted by "mpc220" over in the Apolyton thread.

This is my last message on the Galciv board for a long time (travelling :CONGRAT: ), so I hope you will enjoy the other games of the Game Of The Month challenges (there will be more, check out Ellestar's posts).

Hopefully someone will have time to contribute to the galciv.reallyrules site and put some more AAR's, and new games on the site. If you are interested look here:

Everyone have a great time, and I will be seeing you all in a few months! :HOT:

a good aar. i liked the "we should have stopped watching clockwork orange vids" line :)

the yor actually survived long enough for you to speak to them in your timeline? i never even seen one other than an empty shell in some alien historical museum.

Yeah, surprisingly. I have no idea how they managed to get to Andersona. It should've been out of range, I believe.

Here is my aar. It's mostly screenshots with some bullet points of what is happening. I don't have more time to tidy it up (I don't even have time to play right now) but I thought you might enjoy it.

Executive summary: pretty good game start, but as I am not aggressive enough, I suck at midgame.

Enjoy :d

Just visited the site and noticed that GOTM is listed as May 2003. Is there a July version somewhere that I obviously amd missing?

This is a great idea by the way....
