Wow. Beating the regulars today with this?

Anyhoo, I'm neck deep with my fling with World of Tanks/Warships so see you dudes in a few months when I burn out on it again. Speaking of WoT, Christmas is here and that means a whole slew of goodies/missions/whatnot and for this year...wait for it...one can get Chuck Norris as a tank commander (granted, you gotta grind for it, but still).

Titillated, I tells ya.

Take care folks!

Congrats! You are quick off the mark.

I've got a couple of ongoing MP games going with Nelmsm and another friend.

Aside from that I hope to finish off my Sicilian campaign for MTW2 and play some Rimworld. May get a game of Gladius in if time permits as the Eldar.

More Aurora C#, I'm obsessed again, Per Aspera, might try to jump back into Cepheus Protocol and hopefully some DCS. I'm gearing up for Cyberpunk next week, which I anticipate will take over my life, as well as the new Medal of Honor in VR!!!!

Good times, fellas!

An old classic! Excellent

Not playing as much as i used too since about 2 months....first my computer isn't working as good as it used to and then my Dad died of Covid on the 11th of November. I am mostly watching tv to distract me. I am mostly too tired to play anyway.

Still, i would like to play some Interstellar Space: Genesis with the new DLC. It's really a decent 4x.

Losing a parent is always hard. May God have mercy on his soul.

Thanks. I am sure he's in good hands now. My dad was a great man and very kind. If he's not going straight to heaven, i don't know who will. I am mostly sorry for my children who lost their beloved grandpa.

I'm really sorry to hear of your loss. Your Dad sounds like he was a really good person to know.

Your friends are here for you. :hug:

Let me know if you want an MP game... if we play Field of Glory again, I'll let you win this time... ;) :-"

Damn Anguille...really sorry to hear that terrible news. I lost my father in July 2019. I know how you're feeling. Hang in there and let us know if we can do anything to help. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

I'm sorry for your loss, Anguille. Like you, I lost my dad about 8 years ago. My prayers for you and your family.

Anguille · December 04, 2020, 11:16:19 AM

Thanks guys for your kind words...

@Boggit...that's really too kind of you.

Some of the log jams in my personal life are beginning to dissipate, so I'm starting to get back into gaming. Currently I'm busy getting my a$$ handed to me by various players in the FoG II tournament. I'm hoping to get a bit of work done on a CMO AAR I've started. I may try to get in some FoG Empires. Possibly a bit of Rule the Waves 2 As far as gaming work, I'm still trying to get work done on TF Admiral, Burden of Command and some of the CMO description files and images. I'll also have an ICBM game up for any takers at 1800 PST tonight

My sympathies Anguille, sorry.

My Condolences, Anguille. I lost my parents a few years ago. They were old and already surviving their illnesses much longer than the prognosis, but it changed my outlook on the world nevertheless. It has become emptier now, and I realize I am next in line to go.

On the gaming front I started a Shadow Empire multiplayer game yesterday and there will be more singleplayer Shadow Empire and I will conquer another world in Planetfall.

I am also studying the invasion of the Netherlands in Decisive Campaigns: Blitzkrieg, but have not fully committed to play, only moved a couple of turns to see how it works. Was especially curious about the Fallschirmjaeger attack on the bridges in the West.
