This is intended to be quite light reading, nothing too huge as I enter the AAR world, a front page, a couple of extracts and a few in-game screens. If you humor me I will narrate the events that unfold from 1936 onwards through monthly newspapers front pages and article extracts. 'Some men just want to watch the world burn', said Alfred, and I am one of them, so I just installed Road to 56, set all AI behaviours to 'random', got some soda, launched a new game and decided to sit back, as the world spiralled out of control and all logical sense. Since this is my first AAR I have decide to make it so un-interactive that even I will not play a country. I have consulted the AAR rules, and they rightly state that only experienced AAR writers can make interactive ones.
