To continue MG's theme...

I'll be doing some F1 2013 - Monaco. This is a real test for me...I normally bail at Monaco because I'm so crap at it.

I'll also continue my WitE campaign. I'm doing the 10 turn scenario (Road to Smolensk I think).

And I'll be doing some
The Golf Club
Phantom Leader - finishing the campaign - which is going terrible! I'm doing the 1965 Long campaign. You've got very little choice in weapons and no ECM pods. It's a case of take the chance and don't evade or use the evade and take 2 stress hit points each time. There's only so often you can use that. It's an extremely difficult campaign. No SAMS and no bandits though.
OOTP 14 Now I've got over my "normal block" of dealing with the draft which I picked up 6 players from (I let the AI choose them - so I hope it made the right calls. One of those has dropped out and is going in the draft the following year...clearly he thought he was better than I did! :D

And drinking - as always - drinking.

Have a good one all.

I am unfettered of parental duties, there will be late nights and beer

I shall be sobbing into my mead at the state of Britain in CKII The Old Gods

Either carrying on as austria, or starting a Naples game in EUIV

and fighting with my conscience over a Red Dragon purchase

balls ninja-ed by JD - can we be merged??

Looks like I might be going with....

Football Manager 2014 - thanks to the generosity here, I should be able to grab this pretty cheap when I get a moment. Will see though as I probably need to put some time aside to learning this.

Qvadriga - Got this with the recent coupon after enjoying a tabletop chariot game, I think this could be fun for a while.

Space Empires 4X - Have a friend over tomorrow to play this great boardgame, really enjoying our ongoing games of this. Going to add in a few more rules I think.

Also have a VASSAL game of Blood & Roses going, plus a playtest game to get started on cyberboard.

Last Federation and Fallen Enchantress Legendary Heroes for sure. Ground Pounders is starting to come together nicely, to my surprise, so I'll probably fool around with the latest build, and I may fall off the fence on Endless Legend, depending on feedback.

Merged, tho I will admit to being impressed by UCG in that I didn't think our Anglish cousins even knew who the Eagles were.

That was truly weird- I was posting just as brant merged the threads- next thing I know the forum software is telling me I don't have permission to post. WTF!!! >:( >:(

Then I back-browser and see the merge. Whew! :D

ah well, we'll let you post again, I guess.

I have to work for a while tomorrow and the lawn needs mowing, so, there will be precious little time for gaming. But when I do, it will be Civ IV MP and EUIV MP as well as solo games of Warlock and hoped for continuation of a MP game with Tuna and W8taminute.

Ya don't say? What's the scoop?

Gusington · April 25, 2014, 07:31:16 AM

I will be moving back to my house after the longest darkest winter in recorded history. If I can score some time and get my (thank the gods) WIRED internet connection back, I will be catching up on some gaming housekeeping and updating that my crappy wifi hasn't allowed in over a week. Also putting together a new computer gaming room/office. Then, finally, if the space/time continuum will allow, I will begin a long awaited game of Civ V as Venice. Perhaps some Medieval 2 as well.

Anguille · April 25, 2014, 07:35:54 AM

Not much time but i am starting to enjoy the games i've never played as they were on steam. On my new computer, i've installed them almost all:

- Horizon Humans in Space. A game i've been following since 2004. It's very retro but so far i am enjoying my first game.
- Napoleon TW: i want to play some battles first (just Waterloo so far)
- Grand Ages Rome...such a beautiful game...have been waiting long to play it.
- Age of Empires II, Joan of Arc campaign. Never finished the game and i remember now....i am just too bad at this....anyway, going to do it this time.

Happy gaming.

Barthheart · April 25, 2014, 07:40:23 AM

More yard work, fence staining to be done.

Some VASSAL work... hopefully.

Some old school board war gaming. I'm feeling the itch to dig out some of my older games that were bought in the late '70's and haven't been played much in the last 35 years....
Man... that sentence made me feel old.... :P

Tuna · April 25, 2014, 07:55:27 AM

Long Weekend for me.. Yesterday and Today off too..

Trying out Active Sky Next trial for FSX (adds a lot of realism to the flight)

Playing Fallen Enchantress Legendary Heroes. This was a great deal for ten bucks!

Supposed to Jam with some old friends tonight..
