are you aaring sergeants?

I'll try to remember to take lots of pics of the next game tomorrow and turn it into an AAR.
So far I've done 3 games with complete newbies and they all love the game. Easy to teach and they pick it up after a couple of turns.

Greta fun being here.... Y'all need to come next year!

I am tentatively doing just that.  I just have to bump a few more people off on the seniority list above me to secure the dates for Origins.

Kerbal Space Program I think I have just about mastered getting to and landing on Minmus, next up is to land a kerbal on Mun.

Been debating starting up some KSP again.  But I may start using either my joystick or just using MechJeb to jockey the stick for me next time.  I managed a rough fully-manual landing on Minmus last year, with just mouse & keyboard, but it was rough.  I think the building & planning is the most fun anyway, so I will probably convert next time I fire it up.  ^-^

As for this weekend:

I just picked up Wargame: Red Dragon so I'll probably be checking it out sometime soon, if not this weekend.

Others:
War Thunder Ground Forces
WitP-AE and/or Carriers At War

Marvel Heroes Online if I feel like simple SMASH.

Some HPS Campaigns or TOME are my "go-tos" for when I want to relax with some turn-based thinking.

On the table:
Also played some more Sentinels of the Multiverse yesterday and had my three heroes stomped by Citizen Dawn & her minions in the 'Something Primalis' dino-land environment.  That now makes me want to try try again.  :)  However, I may bust out a different solitaire-capable game next, like Patton's Best, B-29 Superfortress, Darkest Night, or a slew of other choices.  Some of which I haven't even played yet.

It's a nice change of pace when I get into an indecisive funk on which PC game I want to play.   O0

Finally got a chance to finish the Heart of the Swarm campaign for SCII.  I really enjoyed the story line of both this campaign and wings of liberty.  I am looking forward to how they wrap it up with the Protoss campaign.

Judging from the pic above, the Flight Attendant heard your distress and managed to calm you down again.

I didn't play what I expected this weekend. 

Flew a ton of BMS Falcon Israel Theater and have the start of an AAR going.

I also played a bunch of Rising Storm.  I didn't expect to play that this weekend, but it's a great pick-up game when I don't have something else in mind.

I booted up CK2, but it was too much of a brain burn so I didn't get much into it.

Going to the beach today, but if I have some time I might fly some more BMS or Wings of Flanders Field (which I also played some of this weekend!).

This might be more appropriate for the TBT thread,  but I spent most of this afternoon fighting the Japanese at Midway.  Had much more fun with Carrier Strike than I would have thought.  Got it up and running under Win7 using Dosbox Frontend Reloaded with no problems. Only issue I had was with the poor showing of the F4F Wildcats against the Zeroes :-\. My airstrikes seemed to do about as well with the fighters as without them...

My list in the first page totally ignored. Spintires came out and spent a lot of time rolling in the mud.
