Title: Beat the Devils FRIDAY
Post by: undercovergeek on August 02, 2024, 11:57:55 AM

Seems to get used in a lot of game trailers - I remember it from Endless Space 2 plus it's just a great track

I'm currently cycling between Workers and Resources where my farms are now supplying 100% of the crop requirements and every new project now is a fun expansion and not an essential

And Xcom2 Long War 2 - I have 4 strong teams now after making my first 3 territories intel only and crunching the missions - the high intel means I get plenty of notice for the mission and can send 8 man teams without worrying

I just completed my first smash and grab mission where it felt much more guerilla-y than kill everyone and leave - we snuck round the edge of the map, destroyed the target, took out the responders and choppered out before advent knew what had happened - much more intense and exciting than the usual mission

The problem with high intel though is low supplies so we're dialling down intel and maybe heading for 50/50 intel supplies

Considering and I've no idea why reinstalling WitP:AE and going for the big war against the AI

Imperator: Rome, Old World, Imperiums: Greek Wars...well more like trying to learn Imperator and Imperiums, not really succeeding.

Starting a new game of Shadow Empire. MAYBE I'll try some UA Dreadnoughts or Farthest Frontier.

Just curious what are your favorite settings playing SE? As much as you play you should do some AARs...

Playing Jagged Alliance 3 and trying the tutorials for Workers & Resources.

But there are also the road bike races in Paris ...

John Company - being an underhand, exploitative & cynical colonialist for the weekend should be fun.

Just got back from a  family member's wedding, so not too much gaming for me this week.  Maybe a turn or two in WarPlan, but nothing more than that.

Going to get to making notes for the pbp rpg for my Daughter and friend(s) now that lappy is back from the repairman.  Otherwise, dilly-n-dally with a mission or two in WoT/WoWs and muck about in 7 Days to Die 1.0 like a newb.

And to whomever at whatever oil change place siliconed a secondary washer to the oil pan of my Wife's Mini Cooper Clubman** thus causing more problems (looking at you Wal-Mart asshats if I had my guess, you twats), I sincerely hope you forget to wash your hands properly after handling hot peppers and wind up fondling either yourself or your significant other afterwards.  Forever.

** = BMW thought that a brass-ish washer was all that was needed between the drain plug for the oil pan and the pan itself.  Honestly have never seen that before, but they're the smart ones, right; go with their design.  Tighten to spec and all good, right?  Pfft. Bunch of drippy horseshit is all I get.  Now that I know that that shit is there, I have to deal with it on the next oil change as my drain pan is full of old oil and I'm not touching that crap again this weekend. Ugh.

Just drinking as I do everyday. Lose interest right away in any game I've ever tried.

I ended up playing mostly Call to Arms Gates of Hell. It's such a kickass game. Definitely the pinnacle of the Men at Arms series. I also reinstalled the original Call to Arms and had some fun experimenting with realism mods. Finally, I rounded it all out with Ready or Not.

Good times.

I spent the weekend doing TS Debby stuff and playing a little of CMBN's Courage and Fortitude Campaign scenario, "Crossroads". A nice little recon mission after the last 2 Battalion sized assaults.

^Has the storm passed you?

Yes, mostly except for the lingering thunder storm or two. North Florida is catching holy hell. Soon to be followed by the Carolinas. Sarasota, about 45 miles west, had over 11 inches of rain, the most EVER recorded there.

I agree. Always wear your rubbers when it rains.  :lipsrsealed:

Just noticed the title of this thread and was misled into believing it was a "Beat the (New Jersey) Devils" thread.
