This week's Game of the Week is Civil War Battles: Campaign Peninsula, 25% off October 19–25.
McClellan's Army of the Potomac is closing on Richmond, but a swollen Chickahominy, stretched supply lines, and Lee's counteroffensive stand in its way.
Command the fighting from Seven Pines through the Seven Days, including Gaines's Mill and Malvern Hill. The road to Richmond is yours to contest. Can you take the Confederate capital—or save it?
The game has just been updated to version 4.05.6, with many refinements to artillery fire and more.

Well firetruck. Talk about a mess and a half. There are Viet Cong everywhere and they are dug in exceptionally well. We are making some progress and succeeded in securing two primary objectives, but it has taken nearly half the scenario to do it and the losses. Well, it is best not to talk about the losses. It is an interesting challenge to figure out how to reduce these various Viet Cong positions with the limited forces I have. I'm grateful for the heavy artillery and gunships though, they make a world of difference!

Star Citizen Event still. Doing some gathering missions. I don't usually do any mining, but the event is an exception. So I purchased a Prospector and a Helix head. I am in search of a mineral called Beryl. Refine it somewhere, then deliver it in a cargo ship to the destination location.
EDIT: Just finished the event. The good thing about doing these events is that the rewards you get are generally permanently added to your account, rather than just being added as one shot inventory rewards you can lose. Although I guess after 1.0 when the game finally drops, all bets would be off and you could lose them permanently. We will see.

Been playing around with the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 campaign. It's not that bad. Enjoying it a lot.

Just checked out the Nathan Fielder documentary "You Can See Everything" about that Theranos con lady, Elizabeth Holmes.

If you've ever dated a pathological liar, you'll be watching this like a Vietnam vet having flashbacks during Full Metal jacket.

I may actually do Seapower.  I was watching a Youtube video of a play through of Seapower tonight, and caught myself muttering about the guy's weapon selection doctrine.   :tickedoff: Yes, I need a life..... :Nerd:

It's about 2 weeks until Aurora 3.0 drops so I'm taking a break - I got a handle on everything I wanted to in my current and that was a restart of a previous run so enough Aurora-ing for now

Torn between civ 7 and sea power - I've played 10 mins of civ and liked what I saw so I may continue but nothing scratches a strategy gaming itch more than launching Tom cats off a carrier - we'll see

October 13 was the USN's 251st birthday. To all my fellow squids, Happy (Belated) Birthday!  And because the USMC is our kid brother, they get a Happy Birthday too!  :grin:

This is the "Guadalcanal March" from the TV series "Victory at Sea", performed by "The Orchestra at Temple Square"


As far as gaming: Task Force Admiral.  Fight Club work.  BoC work.  I really am going to actually start "Battle Plan" or "War Footing" both of which I purchased this week.  I'm also playing the "House Training the Two New Puppies" simulator.  Except this isn't a simulation....
