You are a true master. Got Plague Inc. and Wings!

On the fence with Dishonored 2...I just can't tell yet from all the noise online if it's fixed enough to drop the dough.

Dammit Carl!

Eh, not rightly certain, but I know I'll be shooting something or someone via War Thunder, Red Orchestra 2, or any number of other games.

Anything I damn well please.

My computer is together. I-7 6800k, 32 gigs ram and 1080 8 gig water cooled evga card.

So, I bought Witcher 3, the rest of skyrim. Plus my motherboard and video card came with Gears of war 4, Rainbow Six something or another, some Warhammer game and an Invite code and Bonus code for World of Warships, whatever that is?

Downloading my Steam games now and am going to lovingly pack the beast up to take it to our house in the deep woods for an extended weekend. I thought about getting GTA V while it was for sale but I think you have to be online persistently to even play it.

Nice new rig there! I built a new one back in May with a 1070. I've been loving it. I've had the whole week off and won't be back to work until next Wednesday. So far I've played some Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation, and Front Office Football 8. I plan on trying Husky in War in the West, and getting more time into Football Manager 2017, Battlefield 1, and Civilization 6. I've also been spending a fair amount of time following the World Chess Championship match between Magnus Carlsen and Sergey Karjakin.

World of Warships
Front Office Football 8




Maybe one of the Total War series, when on my laptop.  Want to do a new Warhammer or Attila campaign, but the campaign map runs like shit on my wimpy Nvidia laptop video card.  Especially Attila for some reason.   So it's either:

TW Rome 2
-or-
TW Shogun 2
-or-
Medieval TW2  w/ Stainless Steel mod

hrmm...

Nice rig Moreb, gaming beast/night light.

Perfectly acceptable start date for this thread as I'm one of the lucky who is off until Monday  :bd:

There will be too much food, too much football and on the downside probably some black Friday shopping :pullhair: and yes there will be gaming. I will continue my CSME pbem's, throw in some strategic command and top it off with HOS which I just bought. I'm still following the chess championship so maybe a few chess lessons and puzzles also. Looks like things will get interesting now in the championship after 7 drawn games and the champion losing game 8, he'll have to push now because the challenger will turtle.

Hey vyshka, join the Ashes Escalation Discord channel to hook up with the community if you're interested at all in multiplayer.

My Secret AAR Project has dwindled down to the bitter end. So now I'm trying to decide if I should start working up posts, or wait a month so I'm not competing against myself for the AAR award.  >:D
ICEBREAKER THESIS CHRONOLOGY! -- Victor Suvorov's Stalin Grand Strategy theory, in lots and lots of chronological order...
Dawn of Armageddon -- narrative AAR for Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Ultimate Apocalypse
Survive Harder! -- Two season narrative AAR, an Amazon Blood Bowl career.
PanzOrc Corpz Generals -- Fantasy Wars narrative AAR, half a combined campaign.
Khazâd du-bekâr! -- narrative dwarf AAR for LotR BfME2 RotWK campaign.
RobO Q Campaign Generator -- archived classic CMBB/CMAK tool!

I dunno what I'm going to play this weekend.  I'm definitely in the mood for some gaming, but I'm feeling a little...unfocused.  Directionless.  :-\ 


I'm sure some sort of space-strategy is on the menu, but what?  More Stardrive 2StellarisDistant Worlds?  Renew my Romulan campaign in Birth of the Federation?  I'm also contemplating some Master of Orion: CtS, as I'm hearing good things about the new update/free content (minor civilizations, Antarans, etc.). 

Or maybe fantasy 4x is what I need.  I haven't fired up Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes in quite some time, and I haven't played Age of Wonders 3 in even longer. 

As usual, Total War beckons to me as well.  Thorgrim's grudges in the Warhammer universe cry out to be avenged, yet I also feel the original Shogun and Medieval calling ot me.  And of course, reading Bernard Cornwell's excellent Saxon Chronicles puts me in the mood to fire up my Mercian campaign in Attila: Age of Charlemagne... 

Last, but not least, I long for some RPG action.  So Pillars of Eternity sounds mighty appealing.  But then, so do my older games like Neverwinter Nights and even Baldurs Gate

Nice headset Hofstadter! It was between them and Sennheiser for me. Went with the latter in the end, but no doubt the Hyper is a fine headset as well. Comfy too, but I prefer open cups.

I need a new set of cans but I'm thinking I'm going to just get a good set of cans then getting an antlion modmike and sticking it on.
