This weekend will be mostly continuing building my
1/720 USS George Washington model. Gaming will be
F1 2017 and probably some
DCS F/A-18.
Enjoy your weekend everyone O0
Starting Saboteur for the 4th time, starting a second play through of The Witcher 3 +all DLC, maybe some Endless Space 2 and tinkering with my music software.
4-player game of Star Trek: Ascendancy tomorrow night. 7 or 8 player game of Sails of Glory on Saturday. Maybe get into Cold Waters or Frostpunk on Sunday.
Definitely some IL-2 BoS, etc....will continue to explore the joy of both air combat and tank crew in VR.
ARMA3, checking out the new goodies from the encore update.
Endless Space 2, dominating a small corner of the galaxy.
Maybe some WH40K Gladius.
Fire up DCS F/A18C, just to keep proficient on routine operations and systems and explore some new areas of the Persian Gulf map which were released in this week's update.
Everyone enjoy.
May continue my campaign in Tyranny - the amount of story in this game is overwhelming. Continuing my Tomb Kings campaign in TW Warhammer II after getting a smack down from the Vampire Counts...must recover and regroup. May also start games of Elder Scrolls Online and/or Planescape: Torment.
Awesome song btw 👍
Nice song choice, JD! O0
I'm not sure, game-wise...I have some prep to do for some (hopefully) big things happening next week, but I might get some more Pavlov's House in so I can get a review out. I'd like to continue my Curse of the Azure Bonds AAR, too...that's on my other work laptop, I'll just need to drag it out and hook it up, but if there's time I'll be all over that.
Thinking of getting into Endless Space 2, with all the talk about it here....
Thinking of getting TOAW IV. Want another groggy title.... but should I wait for a sale....
Need to get my new game Medieval on the table and learn it ...
New board game showing up today so that will probably get broken out first...
And then there's yard work...

One of the better 'Friday' titles, JD! O0
More Galactic Civilizations III: Intrigue this weekend. So far I like this new DLC but will I end up losing interest like I normally do with GalCiv? I also used my Matrix anniversary coupon (41% off!) to buy WH40K Gladius so I might give that a try.

Go back to playing yer solo RPGs with yer best friends Lefty and Righty....
>:D
Eh, reckon I'll keep on killin' on in RO2 / RS2 and Chivalry: Medieval Warfare (can't help it with this last game; it's wonderfully bloody).
And in the vein of my interests posted in the IL2 thread, I may pick up Post Scriptum now that its for sale and servers are up in Open Beta format (iirc).
In my humble opinion this weekend is coming two days too late...
Not one but TWO Austria 1809 KSs rumbling to life this weekend.
A whole lot of JTS playing and playtesting I'm backed up on. Doug, twisted beggar that he is, decided now would be a good time to start up a game of Campaign: Eckmuhl. I did not disagree.
Getting near the end for the Wehrmacht in the Grogheads Strategic Command Classic furball. I have not done particularly well...
WH40k: Gladius has my attention. I'll bend JH's "opportunity lost" to a "failure to innovate", but I love the IP so much that, so far, I've not become bored.
I really, really, really want to finish a game of "Black Orchestra". I'm 0-3 at the moment, although one time we got quite close.

Solo, that game is a lot of fun. Speaking of, I owe a review on it. :-[
So many choices....
I haven't played a computer game in at least a month. I'll probably go with something I know, Cold Waters, CK2, or maybe some Take Command Second Manassas.

Yep...some BoS/Kuban and DCS probably.
I finally got enough turns to add another update to my Combat Mission Shock Force AAR. I'm hoping to pump out the remaining updates soon and finish this thing off (finally!!!)
Other than that I've been really into Field of Glory II recently. I tend to play Rome most of the time, but I'm trying to branch out and learn the Greek factions a bit more.
I may also play some Campaign Series Middle East if I have the time. I recently had to rebuild my desktop and just got around to reinstalling CSME and it's patch.
Beyond that, I'm almost constantly playing one or more of the Combat Mission titles. I have a PBEM or two going right now, but they are more of a gentleman's match set-up, so not really worthy of an AAR or video. Though I do want to get around to making another CM video. We'll see.
Played some Fallout 4 and Endless Space 2...probably will continue on with both of them.
Not much gaming this weekend because of family obligations but maybe some time for one of the 'Battle Academies' or CMRT: Blunting the Spear Campaign. And, I'll hoist a strong one for Ritchie 61. :peace:

+1 i had planed that too O0
(i just didn't wanted to spoil his RIP thread with the idea)
sins of a solar empire
steel division
war thunder - ships aircraft and tanks
post scriptum - just a tiny bit.
Due to overtime continuing this weekend, and some family time with Bro, Ishy, and the nieces, I've focused almost entirely on pulling together a harmonized plan for the Austrian side of the "Death Ride" Kriegspiel today (Saturday).
Unsure about tomorrow, other than watching over the initial corps orders (and perhaps tweaking the Plan accordingly); and playing the Belgiac turn in our Crisis Grogs mp of Falling Sky. At least two players have a good shot at winning the game by 3rd winter, which should be coming up soon! (No spoilers since I'm sure I'll AAR this eventually.)
Played a lot of Attila, doing Mercia campaign. Saturday morning did a lot of bomb runs in Il2 BoS Wings of Liberty server (fun to be back in the air). Good weekend for gaming!
Spent some time today with TW:Rome2 with the new update. Friday and Saturday took up with my son's wedding.
I didn't do any gaming, but I do know that that Attila Mercia campaign has kicked my ass a few times in the past.
Just watched the two seasons of Last Kingdom this weekend. Would LOVE to have a game with a Wessex/Mercia/Danelaw scenario.
I have got to watch that show.
MD - look into Thrones of Brittania.
You really do. It's outstanding. And thanks for the tip.
^You are the latest on these boards to fall in love with The Last Kingdom.
I enjoyed last kingdom, but not Britannia. I guess if I want fantasy, give me game of thrones!
I haven't played Britannia yet. What didn't you like?
No, i meant the tv show.
Oh. I wanted to eventually watch Britannia on Amazon too.
...what didn't you like about that?
:)
My eyes are STILL blurry from all the finalizing of Austrian plans on how to ride Lannes to death.
...also my brain seems to be pranking me and lol'ing.

Oh, that they went into the woods, and find the 'magic' people.. When I'm watching something about that period of history, I hope for it to be semi realistic..
Ah...well no one wants the magic too soon.

They are making another season but not sure if it to be shown this year or next. The books are pretty good as well.
There are two seasons so far AFAIK, yes?
Yes. Season 3 to be shown here 'in the Autumn' but no actual date as yet.
I will probably binge watch them all when I start playing Thrones of Britannia.

I seem to remember seeing something for January 2019 on Netflix.

This is my third time through Season 1 and second for Season 2. I've been converted since before Season 2 came out on Netflix. Join us.
One of my favorites too. More hot Viking Babes please!
And much of it based on my corner of the world.

Close to where my great-grandparents are from. I watched the first episode last night. Really good! O0
My family is from nowhere near there. But I'll still watch.
Hey Bob! My family used to take their boat out for a paddle in the summers and come to visit yours to engage is some vigorous trade (it was mostly one way). They said your lot was a bit stand offish. Whats up with that?
Strange! We are normally a very friendly crowd. Maybe there was alcohol and loud music involved.
Viking Death Metal?
Is there any other kind?
Black death metal?
Any other kind of Viking.

Love them Pipes! Makes every dog in the neighborhood howl. ;D
Psst...just announced over at TWC is a Last Kingdom mod for Thrones of Britannia. I'm on my phone so I cannot link right now. Go check it out!
