This weekend the p&p D&D group is going to the local game shop and picking up a new game. Board or card, I am not sure, but, it will be something we can all agree on. I have a Warlock game, a M2:TW game, and a Civ game all in progress. Time will tell whether I get to any of them. But I hope so ;)
Minis gaming tonight - continuing the group's Northwest Frontier campaign.
Some coop in Halo: The Master Chief Collection this weekend with my son.
Nice choice, MD. Saw IM back in '97 and was glad I did. Hadn't ever seen them before.
Not going to have much time for gaming this weekend, I'm afraid. :(

Lately on weekends I play some World of Warships.
Mom's in town, so that's going to impact game play, but definitely Aurora, Warhammer 2 TW, and maybe try out subnautica again since it's now been released out of early access.
I'll be checking out the Elite 3.0 Beta. Going to be flying some thing in Prepar3d. Probably the PMDG 737. May give the Crusader Kings 2 Winter Kings mod a try.
Good song choice MD. How did your Vikings do last week....oh, yeh...I forgot, my Eagles kicked their butts. :knuppel2: Sorry, I couldn't resist. Gaming-wise this weekend...Aurora 4X.
Elite Dangerous beta. May give Endless Space 2 a spin.
Continuing my Warhammer: TW campaign as the Norsca, continuing to try and figure out the Monstrous Arcanum and not get wiped out. I am 50 turns in to this campaign after getting slaughtered in just 9 turns (!!!) on my first try.
Also just got Endless Space 2 on sale from Steam for half off and it looks epic.

Ditto yesterday: smothered despite my new tank. Entirely my fault.
Poppin' skulls in La División will be my thang, and a "global event," going on for the next few days just seals the deal - fingers crossed I can finally get a mask out of this.
Otherwise, I've got plenty of books to keep me occupied if/when it rains this weekend.
Take care, folks!
Boring here....Marvel puzzle quest and world of tanks.....
Still haven't fired war in the east yet or 1/2 of last 2 years purchases.....why do i buy them

For the economy! Or masochism! One of the two!
Machismo?
Wish it was machismo but more like masochism........
I am going back to an old favorite, Pillars of Eternity to do some finishing-up before Pillars 2 goes live April 3rd. The Deadfire awaits it's ass-kicking by Sir Slash with his Boots of Awesome Ass-Kicking-ness +2. Have great weekend Grogs.
I might try the new Endless Space 2 DLC. Also, I found a Star Trek mod for Space Empires V that I want to try out.
Endless Space 2 for me as well and probably some Tropico 4 or 5 can't decide which one.
I also need to add Helium Rain. Looks like they've added skirmish combat and it looks "The Expanse" like. Not sure if HR has missiles.
\m/ UP THE IRONS!!!
I had Live After Death on CD incredible song live. I think I have Number, Piece of Mind, Powerslave, and Somewhere in Time on cassette.
So for me as of now I am off work until Sunday.
I have been playing of all things lately - Rome Total War. Vanilla and loving it! I was watching some You Tuber and he showed the feature I never knew existed. That on the settlement scroll you can see the settlement on the battle map. That was a nice feature, and it's sad they never included that on later games.
Last night as the Julii I did okay but we ended up in a losing war with the Gauls. They brought the numbers, and armies and assassins which meant a lot of my generals ended up dead and the money was getting too tight to keep up.
I also have been playing Pike and Shot - mostly Skirmishes, and the occasional downloaded battle - Vienna 1683, and Roundaway Down (ECW) as well.
Yeah the ability to walk around one of your cities in R:TW is great...imagine that feature now in the Warhammer games...GIGGITY
1)great tune, probably my favorite IM song.
2)dunno how much gaming I'll get done this weekend. Probably continuing my Xenoblades Chronicals 2 game.
I'm hoping to finish up the last two scenarios of PanzerKreig in the Order of Battle series. Plus finish up Azathoth vs. the World.
Thanks for the song props, gents! Only saw Maiden once. On the Somewhere in Time tour in '87. Great, great show. \m/ \m/
@Rayfer: Yeah, that was a butt whoopin' the Vikings got. Thought it was going to be a great game when Minnesota marched down the field and stuck it in the end zone. Turns out...not so much. I'll be rootin' against the Eagles again come next Sunday. Make a bet with you, if you and I are ever at Origins at the same time, loser buys the first round. Deal?

Haven't thought about Origin in years. Went twice back in the late 70's when it was held in Chester PA, less than a hours drive from where I lived in the Philly suburbs of New Jersey, and again in 1995 when it was held in Philly.. Lots of fond gaming memories from those days....the old Avalon Hill and SPI board games, first edition D&D when it was a role playing rather than roll playing game, and much more. I should make the trip to Columbus Ohio (I think that's where it is held now?) to check it out...it would be about a 5 hour drive for me from southwest Michigan. I'll take you up on that first round once the Eagles somehow figure out a way to beat the Patriots....!

Excellent! Won't be there this June and probably not next year, but, any time after that is possible :bd: GO PATS!!
I've got some COD WW2, Heroes and Generals, and maybe some Farming Simulator 17 lined up for my electronic fix.
Then for my physical gaming fix I've got Game of Thrones: The Board Game to play. Then maybe I'll sleeve some of the umpteen bazillion cards that come with Twilight Imperium 4th edition.
I need to make an Office Max run in order to get some more 'Really Useful Boxs'.

Ship went bang, I died.
(From lack of air while diving
inches from the sky.)
Habitat builder
recently fabricated.
Time to get cracking.
Found an island base.
Wasn't expecting that, here!
The plot has arrived.
Explored plot island;
Now I'm unsure what to do,
regarding the plot.
