Is it live or is it Friday?

It seems that the only thing my computer knows how to run recently is Avernum: Escape From the Pit. Which is fine by me. My characters are level 22, we are cutting through giants like a hot knife through butter and I am still trying to decide what direction I am going to go, help the Empire or help Avernum?

I'm working this weekend and will miss the gathering of the local wargaming group on Saturday, which kind of sucks (would have played another round of FAB The Bulge).

On the upside, I'm beta testing VG Carrier for the iPad and will be keeping my tablet close by ;)

:o Wait, what?!? :o

What is it like? Can we see screenies? When will it be ready for the unwashed masses?

You can't just drop a bomb like that and not help with the cleanup!

Yeah, slow down there, slugger. Share something!

I will be playing mostly Darkstar One....currentely stuck in a mission where i have to help someone. By checking youtube aars, i noticed how bad my weapons are...maybe i'll have to go back to previous save and buy some better weapons...does someone know what kind of weapon fires something like a circle? Looks very powerfull.

Otherwise, Armada 2526 Supernova pbem and will also finish my quatre-bras battle in Fields of Glory.

Will be playing Distant Worlds and working on my theme for it and if I have the time, NOLF GOTYE.

Finally, after weeks of anticipation and delay, I am able to paint my entire body in blue woad, charge down from the virtual highlands and kick some Roman arse in a Radious modded Rome 2 campaign as the Iceni. Glorious.

OCD keeps me from my full gaming potential. I hope to name my first few veteran units after you and Bawb.

Stagger (and anyone else that didn't know and do care),

Found this link over at BGG regarding the VG Carrier iPad version:

Don't get your hopes up - apparently they've closed beta testing. :(

Still, some cool screenshots to check out over there.

Some Marvel Heroes Online for some simple action rpg ultra-violence (me droogies). Interspersed with WOFF if I want to get serious and clad myself with pc hardware. I may also take give Space Hulk it's first play, or maybe some Occult Chronicles for turn-based stuff.

Some more Rome II for sure, continuing my Athens campaign. Am currently at war with Epirus, with Macedon hopefully on my hit list after that. Gotta get an alliance with Spart first, though!

Also, since I'm in a medieval-period sort of mood, I'm thinking maybe a little Medieval Total War/Viking Invasion (XL mod) as well. I haven't played as the English in quite some time (it's probably been literally years), and I'm feeling an itch to rectify that.

Finally, I'm going to get back to Birth of the Federation; I haven't played a whole lot of it lately. Going to give the Cardassians another run, and if I get an interesting enough start, I'm thinking I'll turn it into an AAR.

Second Chapter in ARMA 3 campaign, "Adapt"; Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance; Kill Zone: Shadow Fall; and Planetary Annihilation.

Banner Saga, which I really like a lot and keep going back to. If I can pull myself away, I may give the Sons of Abraham expansion for CKII some real time.
