Poll: Which Game to AAR?

Sadly, I've a number of games I play very little or not at all. It's time to give one of them a break. So, help me pick my next AAR! Here's a list of games I'm considering. They are broken down by experience I have with the game. The choice will also depend on if I can get the game working with Vista. So if there's a game you want to see an AAR on, vote!!! :sign:

Guests can vote so if you really want your vote to count reply to this post with your game choice and why you chose it. That way, if I detect poll abuse I will use the replies to check against the poll.

[Little/No Experience Playing]
Commander Europe at War
Strategic Command 2 Weapons & Warfare
Europa Universalis 3 Complete
HOI-2 Armageddon
Sid Meier's Railroads
Silent Storm Gold
Star General

[A Little More Than Rusty]
Making History
Conquest of the New World
Sid Meier's Gettysburg
Age of Riles

[A refresher game or three, then I'm off!]

Forge of Freedom
UFO Extraterrestrials

A vote for Making History! I just found out that a new version is due later this year:

I found some more games this past weekend. I suspect I'll find a couple more before I'm done cleaning/sorting. After this poll I may have to do another. But not if I don't get some more votes. :bfrown:

Since it's slow going I may have to do an AAR or two for games I have that's not on the list. :mrgreen:

I always enjoy the madness that ensues over the course of a game of Galactic Civilisations II. I've not had a chance to try out Twilight, either, so it would be great to hear how it goes!

Although I'm sure other people've posted their play-by-plays of GalCiv, it's what's drawn my vote. And from the looks of it so far, the game that'll be played. So I hope everyone else enjoys it!

I originally voted for UFO: ET, but I'm now in favor of Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor. I just recently picked up GC2: Dread Lords in the bargain bin, and am trying to learn how to play.

You picked up a copy of GalCiv: Dread Lords in a Bargain Bin?! Oh man, I'm so jealous. I've been working at a game place for a year now, and I've never, even through work, ever seen a physical copy :\

A friend told me about it. Target stores have it for $9.99 :!:

The original GC2: Dread Lords; didn't include Dark Avatar or Twilight expansions. Also just the CD, no hard copy of the game manual, although there is a .pdf copy that installs from the CD.

Unfortunately, Target don't carry it in this country.

Australia - afterthought of the game publishing community.

I'm in not the best of moods, so I won't even start on examples. But since the dawn of time, Aus has just been ignored or reluctantly conceded to by publishers.

CoG:EE deserves more attention from people, so go with that one.

This poll has been up for over 3 months now so I guess it's time to close it. I was hoping for more votes and hopefully more people posting AARs in the forums. Not to worry, though. This forum isn't going anywhere. And since it looks like GalCiv2: TA has won with a huge majority of the votes, that will be my next AAR. Look for it to start soon!
