The Groginati Sales Thread

That's the Buzz Aldrin successor that Aldrin worked on? If so, I've got it, and ran an AAR for the Soviet side as a sample back on its release. Its UI was a little clunky compared to the original Race to the Moon game (that I recall), but it has more depth. At the time of its release there was a serious graphic bug that borked the replay of re-entry footage, whereupon I stopped doing the AAR. I haven't checked if that has been fixed yet but I'd be very surprised if it hasn't.

Conclusion: if you liked the original Race into Space, you'll probably like this as much. If you like the management side of Kerbals but want a more historical game then you'll like this. (Note however that it does not, or anyway did not, have Kerbal's depth!)

Fanatical has as a massive Total War sale going on right now. There are steep discounts for nearly every game & DLC; even TW3K is available for 33% off. Get 'em while they're hot!

WHAT

Martok · February 29, 2020, 12:27:29 AM

Seriously, these are damn good prices. Just about everything is 54-68% off: Main titles are $10-15, and most DLC is $4-7. You can even pick up the original Shogun and Medieval for a few dollars.

There was an extra 5% off coupon offered from Fanatical for Three Kingdoms that brought the price down to 37.99 - finally got it.

Unity of Command 2 on sale on Steam, 20% off = $23.99, weakening my resistance:

Any of you guys who picked it up, is it worth it at that price? I was hoping to wait for PBEM and Axis playable but that's a good price.

Good source for info on the game : https://www.youtube.com/user/VulcanHDGaming/videos

Playlist of a campaign : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0p3l0ggbMctuyylhI_sH8HzOF82VYSfT (no need to watch all 56 to get an idea !)

It still is played (new DLC released this week (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1236360/Steel_Division_2__The_Fate_of_Finland/) and I should definitely start playing this more.
Best choice should be to go with the General Deluxe Edition to get the extra campaigns included in the dlc.

Unity of Command 2 is $17.99 at GamersGate for a Steam key. It looks like today will be the last day.

It is a good game - until I got sick of chasing that demented godling. I would have nuked him if I had a nuke.
I put 70 hours in that game and really enjoyed it until the last 5 or so hours. Then I never could finish it.

Sailing around, solving the various quests was a lot of fun - until I was searching for my pocket nuke.

Just dropped today.

ALL WARHAMMER stuff on sale!

JasonPratt · March 11, 2020, 08:27:46 AM

Interesting. I recall buying Mark of Chaos on vacation, and eagerly installing it once I got home, only to be terribly disappointed in it. I wonder if it's better than I recall....
