Hells yeah, ya' mooks!

Whatcha playing this weekend!   >:D


I'm going to be playing "set up the new table in the man cave so you can leave board games out in a cat- and child-free environment for an extended time" and then I'll be setting up something big just because I can!  mwuahahahah!   

and if y'all piss me off about not having some tunes, I'll post some Rebecca Black for your musical enjoyment

Scourge of War seems to be my flavor this weekend. 

[MetalDog]

Warlock.  In preparation for the dismantling of Banzai_Cat.  That is, if he shows up for his beating ;)

We really need a schedule for who gets to start the Friday thread....

I managed to actually do almost everything on my list last week, going to try and make it two in a row.

Command - More scenario work. Spent a good portion of last Sunday plotting out he locations of former soviet air bases in Google Earth. Now I need to find out what ones I'm going to use as targets in my RSR Dreamland scenario and bring them into the game.

Wasteland 2 - RPG of the year IMO. The games forced me to do a ton of save scumming, usually only a few minutes back, and the story is really cliche so far, but there's something about WL2 that's got me hooked.

Xenonauts - Starting another new game with some mods I've never used before. I'm suffering a little bit of the The Elder Scrolls syndrome, where I'm constantly starting a new game to try our new mods. This time I'm not even going to look at the Xenonuats modding forums until I finish the game.

Kerbal Space Program

Distant Worlds AAR

With how shitty my week as been, a few hours of mindless demon / hell spawn killing in Diablo 3 might be in the works as well. CK2 Charlemagne is a possibility as well.

I always had to spend more time researching historical scenarios than actually working on them in various game editors.   >:(

Has anyone done specific period/area map templates that already have some bases located on them for CMANO yet?  That kind of stuff always made it pumping out scenarios notably faster.

For me research is one of the things I really enjoy but most of my play time as been creating scenarios in editor mode on an ad hoc basis. One of the things I love doing is loading up one of my US carrier battle group import files, load up the Kola peninsula bases and defenses, add in some opposing air craft and ships, and then just hit play and see what happens. Also done similar things for other countries defenses. Taking out a countries defenses with a battle group is one thing, doing it with a SSGN or two is in some ways more fun.

I was going to release the bases I had plotted out as a import file consisting of single unit airfields. I built the airbase at malminkle (yes, Clancy got it right, there really was an airbase there) as a multiple unit air base in GE and was going to release that as an import as well. I'll be building out the other air bases as multiple unit airbases on an as needed / time permitting basis. If you haven't already, check out the stock import / export files. There's probably a file or two that will give you a head start for most scenarios.

blh42 has done some amazing import files to. World and US cities for both the CWDB and DB3000, World Airports, ans US bases and squadrons. blh42 Imports

Hopefully we'll get some more PBEM turns in for Pride of Nations but things are screwed up right now and I can't make the game recognize orders from UCG or Tuna.
