I hope to play -

CMBN tournament PBEM
CMBN PBEM x 2
Age of Wonders III: Shadow Magic
PrON
CKII

What ill probably end up playing -

CKII

And hopefully some painting of WHFB figures

Im not too sure its like some kind of menstruation process - but im happy with my gaming right now, loving the CKII and CMBN with new adventures to be found in AoW and PrON BUT theres a nagging, itching feeling at the back of my neck to buy a new game - it happens every month, i dont need one, i dont particularly want one. It usually happens on the eve of new releases but not generally for games i want - theres a wargame:EE sale on, but i dont really want it, there AJE but im not sure im sold on it yet, XCOM is on the horizon, as is Game of Dwarves - they all just trigger the 'ooooo shiny games' button and i have to fight off the urge to buy a game i dont want - i must resist!!

Torchlight 2 - Near end of ACT 3 and would like to get to ACT 4 by end of weekend

Probably some Civ IV Colonization - Started playing again after finding this cool mod (http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=19763) that makes the game a little more interesting.
I really suck at this game but I can't stop trying to get better.  :P

Some more beta testing.
More work on vassal modules.
Maybe try to get a live vassal game in.

When I'm not working on Red Storm during the weekend I'll sneak in some time on xcom, warlock and maybe some fallen enchantress beta.

I have several campaigns going, so I hope to get a chance to process some turns/time with each to keep them advancing and play around with FTL and Dragon Pass here and there.  I tend to jump between games and process turns to keep them all going... I also have EU Rome game, ES and CIV V that has been setting.... however

- CK II (Trying to take over Poland)
- HOI III (Germany Campaign moded)
- EU III (Brandenburg campaign, in a tight spot)
- OOTP (Continue one of my team rebuild saves)
- AGEOD Civil War (process a couple of turns on a save that has been in limbo)

Mostly

- Alea Jacta Est (Recently purchased)

help me out here, is that dominion on your phone, or you with a board and an opponent with a board and you phone each other the moves? kind of like 1970s Vassal

LongBlade

Should be playing anything else but Orcs Must Die! 2.

Will be playing Orcs Must Die! 2 because my laptop is still in the shop (but due to be available Monday!).

Androminion for the phone
But the older v2 build. I hate the v3 UI

Not much pc playing this weekend, but hope to try out mission 3 in Wargame: European Escalation.

And then some board gaming with the girl friend and maybe unpacking my new Star Wars: X-Wing Miniature Game...http://www.twins4ever.dk/cougarscorner/index.php?/topic/2783-unboxing-star-wars-x-wing-the-miniatures-game-with-expansions/

I just buy lots of crap and feel like an idiot.  But then I get something good and I'm off on a spree.

The Elusive Victory board game turned out to be a good buy so now I'm on a jet spree:

Back to Strike Fighters 2
Getting an ancient Lock-on: Modern Air Combat set of discs and starting down the DCS World Line

Old sprees that are holding up:
Some Dangerous Waters
Some Harpoon 4.1 Pen-and-paper
And Maybe:
some WWII online
some CKII

W8taminute

I just picked up F1 2012 today so I plan on giving that a spin (pun intended) this weekend at some point.  I'll also be working on Dynasty Warriors 7 and maybe Forza 4.  Throw in some AJE and my PBEM games with Armada 2526 and I'd say it's going to be a great weekend.

Arctic Blast

Once again, it will be a lot of Borderlands 2. And I want to try getting something board game out. Maybe Napoleon's War : The 100 Days or Hannibal : Rome vs. Carthage will see the table for the first time.
