Title: Shadow and Friday
Post by: Anguille on August 13, 2021, 04:32:00 AM
Inker & Hamilton was one of my favorite bands of the 70's-90's....imho, very underrated.

Like the retro look of the bassist. The drummer is really cute (seriously). Had a big crush for Hilary Hamilton....such an amazing voice.



This weekend i will play the same as last week:

- Stellaris
- Ultimate General: Civil War
- Stronghold Warlords


Inker and Hamilton's biggest hit (could have been the theme for this thread - Dancing into friday):



and one of the older songs



Unfortunately there's only little on youtube.

A little more The Ascent as I shift gears and ease into some Field of Glory 2 - Medieval.

Might give Frostpunk a look since it's free to play the next couple of days and also 70% off on Steam.

With the Boy now off to college and the Girl being mostly "away," due to her job (she's got weird hours and we see her only every once in a while), the Mrs. and I are semi-empty nesters now!

Feels weird.

If/when I do any gaming, I honestly think I'll get the Pathfinder Kingmaker rpg and give it a go.  I loved the concept of it in the actual pen and paper rpg world, so doing the computer stuff should be nifty (and I don't think I've ever done any computer based rpg-ing outside some few minutes in KOTOR many, many moons prior).

As always, stay safe all!

From a completely selfish standpoint, I miss the yard getting mowed by someone other than I.  Really do have to get the riding lawn mower fixed at this point.

I mow the lawn to get some peace and quiet!

Going to be some more Ascent. I think I'm nearing the end of the story. I'm also hoping to get back into DCS and brush up on my Tomcat. I applied to join a pretty serious virtual squadron. It will be my first foray into the world of MP flight. Finally, if there is any time, some Star Citizen 3.14 and maybe some VR pew pew pew.

You wouldn't survive an hour with my four kids (2 boys and 2 girls)....>:D

Au contraire. The Wife is one of four daughters. As is The Mother In Law. I have a sister of my own. So...I would survive.

Surprised this is your first attempt at MP flying, JH.

I'm not a very social creature when it comes to gaming and some people take DCS very seriously.

Had a brief stint with an online group and planes (Warthunder only, but still) and it was a hoot.  A good gaming group (online or in real life) is a treasure.

^ JH's response is at once the most obvious and ironic thing I have ever read  :dreamer:
