The weekend is upon us, well, almost.

The forum ninjas are watching...... what are you playing this weekend, although i dont expect this to veer far away from D3 and Warlock.

Myself, im still on the high seas working the Caribbean trade routes in Port Royale 3, and ill be downloading CK2 after being inspired by a quite frankly hilarious AAR over at Paradox.

Will be finishing off a CMBN scenario also

Good gaming chaps and have a great weekend................

No gaming this weekend. My wife and I and some friends are going to wine country for the weekend.
Off all next week, Monday's a holiday up here, to put in the veggie garden and other general start of summer yard work. Might get in some early morning Warlock or late night VASSAL games.

After my wife and I put in our garden I think I might have earned some gaming time.

I plan on playing some Warlock as well as repressing some peasants in Tropico 4.

Otherwise: Armada 2526 Supernova pbem

Also on my netbook: Caesar III and Master of Orion

World of Tanks has become my thing between 8-11 every night. Clanwars has really brought new life to the game for me. Im developing most of the  tactics for our Clan (   http://worldoftanks.com/community/clans/1000000874-WKC/  ).
We have come a long way in a few months actually taking and holding territory for a few days this week.
The difference between playing public matches which are a total free for all, and clan battles where you are actually using real military tactics is huge. Also meeting a great bunch of guys including a retired British army guy who now lives in New Zealand, and a couple other ex-M1 Abrams tankers like myself.

Undercover hit most of my faves.

I'll probably start a new Warlock campaign, do some Diablo III, and try to set aside some time to paint some Flames of War minis. Port Royale 3 will probably rear its head at some point, but after that I'm not sure. I may have to do some Heroes & Generals just to check in on it.

I'll be spending some time with Warlock and hopefully will find some time to start checking out Endless Space.

@UG  If you're one of the lucky 500, maybe you can pick up CK2 for $10 today (the flash sale starts 12pm CT US)

Gamersgate are currently doing a crazy deal (-80%) on Disciples 3: Resurrection so I'm downloading it now.  I haven't finished my main campaign but I love the Undead race so I will probably fire it up to have a look innit?

I've really been enjoying Stellar Impact so I will definitely play a few more games of that this weekend.  Might get some time in with Evochron Mercenary.  And, as ever, I'll be playing Stronghold Kingdoms.

No gaming for me either.  I'm taking my girlfriend's coon hound to an agility training boot camp in Philly. We're going to have a blast.

That sounds like a ton of fun. Can't wait to hear about it.

Well - thanks to Virgin Media my broadband was increased from 20Mbps to 60Mbps free of charge - unfortunately after a few days, it is not working today and the engineer is booked for Monday...so no iRacing or BF3 for me this weekend.

I will therefore be doing 1 of 3 things...
1. Playing Hornet Leader (boardgame)
2. Playing KA-50 Black Shark or A-10C
3. Model making - working on my Mosquito
4. OOTP13 - must continue my Anaheim Angels career

That's a lot of megabytes.

What will I be doing?

1. The endless WitpAE PBEM.
2. StrikeFighters2 off Iceland 2.0
Boardgames: Prussia's Glory and Harpoon 4.1

I'm one turn away from my first victory in FOTS as Sumatsu clan. After that I'm going to try out the Darthmod and see how it compares to vanilla. Also trying to take a break from Skyrim but it just keeps calling my name.

oops - first off, I meant one of 4 things

Secondly - yeah - it's alot of megabytes - but when it's not working it's equivelant to 0! :-)
