puuuuuuuuuuuuuuush!!!!!!
I am traveling this weekend so will be restricted to playing games on my netbook. Birth of the Federation and Civil War Generals 2 are top of my list with some action RPG (Sacred) thrown in for variety.
Now that I know it's not bugged I'll be continuing with my Eastern Entente campaign in To End All Wars. I sould really devote some time to Kings Bounty:Dark Side as well as further testing on the betas for Sovereignty and the new build of the Witcher Board Game.
Will be playing To End All Wars.
Most of my free time this weekend will be devoted to fantasy football drafts and hanging out with family. The trouble with letting the Euros start these threads is that they sometimes miss important stuff. Like, IT'S A THREE DAY WEEKEND HERE IN 'MURICA!!!!! So, Monday, I will FINALLY fire up my copy of To End All Wars and see if I can wrap my head around the AGE engine.
Learning 'Russia Besieged' but also playing some BoB SE and GP.

This is exactely what i am going to say next week! ;)
Three day weekend up here too! :)
Start writing review for Brant. Drink beer.
Continue CiV campaign as Egypt. Drink beer.
Pickling both dills and jalapenos. Drink beer.
Motorsport Manager on my iPad. Drink beer.
Maybe drink some beer and swim in the pool if the weather cooperates.
Finishing Wolfenstein: The New Order, puttering around in Pe-2 Dive Bomber, playing the tutorial in To End All Wars, and perhaps finally firing up Fallen Enchantress.
Some Steel Beasts Pro PE multi-player. Maybe a couple turns of To End All Wars.
Gonna set up Fire In The Lake on the table. Or a host of others I've not yet played. Luckily I can leave them out and get to them at my leisure. Also have tons of game minis to paint so that's my quiet relaxation time, if needed. :)
When do you not need quiet relaxation time?

When I want to blow shit up. Which is often. :crazy2:
Unfortunately my wife has decided this ENTIRE three day weekend is going to be spent around the house, cleaning and doing projects. I hate projects. You work all day, the weekend is supposed to be for relaxing, not working MORE. Sigh.
^I feel for you man! Been there done that as well.
My wife's friend is coming in over the weekend from out of town so I will be playing 'be a good host and entertain 1.01'. When I do get a chance though I'll be working on a scenario that I'm overhauling for Advanced Tactics Gold.
I'm planning on getting my hands on To End All Wars as well but not sure if I'll have much time to play it much. Then I'll try fitting in some War Thunder airplanes into the mix as well. Three out of the five gunners on my He-111 are fully trained and I need to grind some more Xp in order to train the remaining two gunners. Then I'll be unstoppable! 8)
Well, I've got my bezzie mate turning up tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow morning I'm laying tiles on the conservatory floor. Then tomorrow afternoon/evening it's bevvy time.
Tonight and Sunday will be good though. So tonight I will do some Elite:Dangerous and Sunady I might see if the lads are about for some Steel Beasts Pro - if I have any time left on my month licence...I must be coming to the end!
Four day weekend, err five, had yesterday and today off.. Bday today, so going out to lunch with family. I hope to get some serious gaming in tonight.
Moving my 18 year old to Colllege tomorrow....
Will probably be doing some FSX, End All Wars and some form of Total War
Now this some Strauss worthy of a true grog. Read the video's description it's worth it.
I'm in a gaming funk so most likely will waste my computer time scouring aquarium forums. I'll be cleaning and replanting my established tank this weekend and setting up a new larger tank. It'll eventually have an Gold Veiled Anglefish that needs to be moved into the larger tank after it's cycled, which will dictate the other fish for the community. I also need to figure out how I want to setup and plant the aquascape.
I might play some turn based strategy something or other....
I'll likely start playing through Season 3 this weekend, but I might take another stab at Freedom Force which I re-picked up with its sequel from... crap, can't remember where, GoG or GG, last night.
Also, I'll likely be picking up the Combat Mission 3.0 updated franchise and going through all the hoops on getting that set up.
Bison, just delete the 's' after 'http'; the rest of your coding looks legit.
S always seems to end up causing problems...
Steelbeasts Pro with the DOW.
Playing some EU IV as Castile, and Distant Worlds ST mod.... and some disc golf. I need to post/renew the community B-17 AAR as well.
PE

I'm going to be playing WiTPAE PBEM, some BoS and a boardgame or two.
Since I retired two years ago, every weekend is 7 days long! However, I plan to play around a little with recently acquired ACW2 while waiting for the 1.04 release, maybe run a few turns on my Republican campaign in Espana 1936, and try to get a grip on how OOTP14 works.
Took today off, so 4 day weekend for me. With the weather starting to turn to the typical fall weather for the Pacific Northwest, clouds and rain, it looks like it will be a good weekend to stay in and game.
Distant Worlds - Continue my AAR and modding.
Xenonauts - Continue my current game. Eventually I'll make it through a full game without being overwhelmed.
XCOM Long War - Think I'm on my way to losing my first game, but I'm going to give it a few more attempts before I restart.
Command - Continue work on my Red Storm Rising scenario.
I'll also be drinking a copious amount of whiskey throughout the weekend.
Would love to pick up To End All Wars for the long weekend but I think I'm going to continue to keep my eye on it and see if those playing still like it next week.
Possibly escorting duties with the D.O.W

Happy birthday Tuna!
I might play some Xenonauts and maybe some Victoria II (been re-reading the Flashman novels and they've got me in the mood for some Empire building). Saturday is reserved for drinking sake, eating ramen, and chatting up some Japanese girls at the annual Japan festival in town.
I am also having Wife-Related planning issues this weekend, my grand-daughter's 3rd birthday party. I told her, "Honey, she's going to have another one next year" but.... you know how women are. While I'm waiting to hear from the Grogs whether To End All Wars is The End Of All WWI games, I've gone back to DC-Warsaw to Paris to scratch that strategic itch, or maybe it's more like a dull ache. Anyway, I had pretty much given-up on this monster after I was sure I had gotten to Brussels ahead of the Allies only to find every army except the Chinese waiting there for me to show-up. After a pause to re-think my strategy and curse the game-some more- I've been making decent progress to victory. So that's where I'll be this weekend, pushing panzers down the road to Paris while wearing a pointy birthday hat. Happy Labor Day Grogs. 2014 Was a damned good summer for me and I hope for all of you as well. :))
Happy birthday Tuna

There have been some OOTP threads around here explaining some of the more difficult concepts in more plain English. Such as the player contract details (Professional Time vs Major Time implications, etc) and the different roster usage.
Kushan,
I know you answered a DW mod list question in the comments to your front-page AAR, but have you set up a thread for that (like your Skyrim mod thread) here in the comp wargaming category?
Finally got around to buying the Assault on Communism / Assault on Democracy bundle for Strategic Command WWII Global Conflict so I'm aiming to do some Assault on Democracy probably with the War in the West mod campaign.
However I've just noticed that GOG have released Hogs of War so I might well be distracted by that if I weaken and buy it.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TUNA
Figured I would make the font big so you could see it. Getting old and all ;)
Nothing worse than old Tuna HAR
Happy B-day!
Thanks, now I gotta think of what game to buy myself for a gift!
The most expensive one.
I think he already has a wife.
I'll be gone again this Saturday evening through Monday evening, so I'm not sure how much gaming I'll get done. On the other hand, I do have these next four nights off, so I should be able to get at least some time in.
At the top of my list is the
Sovereignty beta, followed by
Rome II. Am also digging some space strategy (as usual!), so probably either
Distant Worlds or
Birth of the Federation, depending on exactly what I'm in the mood for.

Some add-on for FSX maybe?
Forgot to post this but I may finally fire up the Empires of the Smoky Skies steampunk mod for Civ V...most of you have played that already right? Looks pretty great.
Happy belated birthday Tuna!

Lol.. was actually thinking of buying an airport.. but tempted to get a 'game' instead.. should I get my 'own' copy of Rome II.. so I dont' have to use my 15 year olds?
Thanks for the Bday wishes!
^YES
I've been in a gaming funk for a good two weeks now. I thought I had some sort of break from repeatedly looking over my games library in boredom when I saw this interesting tidbit of information.

That's truly unfortunate because they are all smoking hot :(

The PR agents, hard at work.
The pics are real. Get over to 4chan for a look, on /s/. Have a great day. :)
Edit: Looks like
some are fake. However the most important ones - Jennifer Lawrence - are real. ;)
