And On the Sixth Day, God Created.. FRIDAY!!.. And There Was Much Gaming.

Whatcha playin this weekend?


If I can peel myself away from WOFF long enough, I'd like to start up either Falcon 4 BMS or some Flaming Cliffs 3 from DCS.  I may never get away, though.

Also need to start up a TW Rome 2 campaign soon.

I've been playing a lot of War Thunder lately.  I would like to do more full-real simulator battles but the wait times are often pretty long so I mostly play in the historical battle servers.  I generally do pretty well in my Typhoon 1b/late and Tempest Mk. V but on the two alternate history maps where it's the Brits/US vs. the USSR, I get eaten alive by the Soviet planes.

Going to try to finish The Banner Saga.  It's not exactly on my A-list of games but it's alright.

The usual Iron Front and ArmA III MP sessions.

EDIT: And probably a bit of IL-2: Battle of Stalingrad just to see what this week's update has to offer.

I'll be playing more EUIV. In my current game as Spain (Castile), I've colonized most of the US eastern seaboard, the Caribbean, and South America. Just finished up a short war with Great Britain. As soon as I finish upgrading my fleet to galleons and early frigates, I'm going to go after Portugal. They've dishonored are alliance one too many times and I feel the need to teach the AI a lesson. If I can tear myself away from ensuring the sun never sets on the Spanish Empire, I need to start the Hapsburg CK2 + EUIV AAR that I have been planning on doing for a couple of months.


Other possibilities include Rome 2 and Command.

Dammit!  I was hoping to start this thread!   >:(

JK.

Well, I'm splitting my time between going Medieval and flying this weekend.

I'm going to continue my campaign in CK2 as Duke of Normandy.  I've also started dabbling in King Arthur: Saxons Campaign lately.  I really like KA a lot; it scratches an itch differently than M2TW, but the need to fight the battles in tactical mode almost all the time sort of drags me out of the game frequently.

On the flight sim front I will be flying BMS Falcon.  @Nefaro, I have a mod for the Alpha Guam theater that you might enjoy.  If I get a cleaner version I may post it up.  It's super rough right now, but does lead to far more dogfighting than anything you're likely flying in BMS right now.

I've also been neglecting FSX having fallen completely out of love with it for some reason.  I hope to at least get one revenue flight in this weekend.

I reserve the right to play Steel Beasts or Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm as well.  Oh, and DayZ...man, I have a lot of games to get to!

Still playing Darkstar One....making a lot of progress in the story after upgrading my ship and destroying all the pirates in the galaxy  ;)

Great game

What's WOFF?

I don't know what I will be playing this weekend. I have so many games on my gaming plate and I just bought a bunch more during GOG.com's DRM-Free Time Machine Sale. Plus today is the last day to use my holiday credit towards Amazon's 2013 Editor's Choice Games.

Color me undecided.

What's WOFF?

Wings Over Flanders Fields.  See here:http://grogheads.com/forums/index.php?topic=8425.0


I'm in the middle of a big battle in CMBN.  This is the best part of the game for me.  Often I load up a scenario, get baffled by the bocage and flummoxed by the prospect of sorting out all my pixeltruppen into their respective command-structures, so give up.  Also, the final few turns often consist of me just hitting the "go" button.  So the middle phase of a big battle, when enemy have been encountered and stories are developing is the sweet spot of the game.

Other than that, I may hook up with some mates in Planetside 2 and have a jaunt in the virtual skies of RoF and IL2:BoS

[Greybriar]

Thanks, Father Ted. Now I know that WOFF = Wings Over Flanders Fields.

I assume that RoF = Rise of Flight. And what is IL2:BoS?

[undercovergeek]

EUIV - expanding Austria into Venice and maybe into France if i can talk Burgundy into it too

Finishing off a test scenario for ARMA III to familiarise myself with the editor and then hopefully building a mission or two

Rome II - Woad or Carthage, probably Woad for now

Beta testing a game ive been looking forward to for ages

[Jarhead0331]

Thanks, Father Ted. Now I know that WOFF = Wings Over Flanders Fields.

I assume that RoF = Rise of Flight. And what is IL2:BoS?

iL2: Battle of Stalingrad, the newest game in the IL2 series since CLoD...it's currently in alpha phase, but looking really good.

Anyway, I'll probably play more of my Rome II Spartan campaign. I have a pretty formidable empire, but I did just lose a grand army on a foolish expedition to Cyprus.

Might & Magic X Legacy.  I'm digging it a lot more than I thought I would, despite the somewhat clunky interface.

What's WOFF?

just realized it'd been a while since we updated the game acronym thread

[MetalDog]

Warlock has me in its grip.  Have a Civ IV BtS MP session set up for tomorrow morning.  Can't imagine I will get up to anything else.

[Gusington]

Rome 2...making the known world safe for fans of woad.

[Shelldrake]

Geared up to play the last mission (Templeship assault) in XCOM. This is my second time through since my laptop locked up the first time near the end of the mission - just as well as my squad was getting a thorough pasting. At this time I am undecided about my next game - maybe trying to finish Shadowrun.
