OOB is quite the delight. Like muffins.

No new games for me.  Might pick up some DLC's for games I don't have time to play....   ::)

I want to pick-up Thrones of Britannia for $9.99 but I haven't even hardly touched Attila.   :idiot2: Somebody talk me into it.

Command Ops 2 modules are on sale with 40% off. I am not sure whether that is a common occurrence.

Tempted to get the Arnheim module for some Airborne Assault nostalgia.

If it just wasn't for the excessive iconitis in those games. I can never remember which icon stands for what.

Often wanted to get back into that game and purchase modules, but the update process by the developer seems never ending so I always end up not doing it.  I am sure the current game is good enough without the future updates, but something holds me back because of the progress speed.

Command Ops 2 is an excellent operational game! I often get bored of electronic chits and counter games (I rather push physical counters), but CO2 just has flair.
If you can get a few modules for a nice price I would certainly recommend getting them.

This time around, I seem to be looking more at the sale on Epic than I am on Steam.  The sale prices seem about the same, but then you can use a coupon for another $10 off.  Downside is there is much less to choose from.

A few on my wishlist.  But nothing major.

Well I did see Cold Waters is on sale.  Problem is as I said there's nothing major - Matrix/Slitherine to their credit has a better sale. GOG is good too. But I might grab UA: Dreadnoughts anyway.  Fall of the Samurai is on sale too..so HMMMM.

There's a few but I have to think "BACKLOG."

I'm in the exact opposite position.  I want to pick up Atilla but I have hardly touched Thrones of Britannia.  Somebody talk me into it.   ;D

I saw that the other night on Epic.  They don't really have much TBS games on sale.  Still it's good to have a competitor to Steam.

Thrones of Britannia is really under-rated, especially if you enjoy British or Viking history.

Attila is also underrated and the amount of mods for it is incredible, including the 1212AD mod, aka Medieval 3 TW.

That's true but many of the mods aren't finished. And I don't know if they ever will be, I've been burned too many times before by great mods that the authors just walk away from and never come back. The 1212 Mod is in 8 parts, a lot to download and install. But it does look really great. Vanilla Attila, hey that rhymes, is a whole lot of little fish trying to eat 2 great big ones. You can be a little fish trying get big or a big fish trying not to get eaten, which IS fun but, gets old fast. Everybody in the world is angry, all the time. And hungry. And diseased. That's the trouble with the Dark Age, it's DARK. I end-up just Razing everything and walking away from it.  :coolsmiley:
