Going to be more World of Warships for me since they are celebrating their 9th anniversay.

Back to Hex of Steel for me with a relatively new global WW2 mod.  It's quite impressive.

Dammit Carl!

Home maintenance is the order of the day(s).  Might get a wee bit of gaming in but doubtful. 

As nerdy as it sounds, I need to arrange my array of rpg pdfs into something more cohesive as they're scattered in a laptop here, a external hard drive there and CDs in the desk drawer(s).  Think I'll bite the bullet and at least get started in that direction.

Toodles, folks!

Maybe some scourge of war or star citizen patch

I considered playing WOWS (world of warships) for the 9th anniversary goodies but just cannot be bothered putting myself on the marketting hook. Perhaps I should reconsider in case I get a free ship and play it again some day.

Just finishing up some turns in CBMN for the Matrix tournament.  Carentan will be mine!   Also some Warplan with Nelmsm.  And BoC work.  And Fight Club work

Just as an aside, George Jones isn't nearly as cute as Alice7's alleged image.  :grin:

If it's quiet in the morning, I may get in a little quality time with the Attila TW mod, "Rise of Christianity" as Constantine himself. Or I may just let the wicked AI in Second Front slap me around some more. Have a great weekend Grogs. You too Alice7.

Having a love hate relationship with xcom 2 longwar 2 - i have liberated west Asia, India, east Asia and the arctic, Indonesia is in the liberation cycle as is western USA - the golden path missions have me also in New Mexico and east Africa

I've completed 3 golden path missions and I think there's 2 left before it's all over

The team all have plasma weapons and I have 8 teams of 8 guys all at the top level - master sergeant I think, and 6 captains and 2 majors to lead the team

My issue comes with the golden path missions - the normal missions are a dream - I can take on 20 bad guys with no problem and watching my guys use their skills in over watch and thru the turn is great but the golden path ones are so ridiculously stacked against you it's almost like the devs couldn't think of anyway to make it hard other than to put 40-50 baddies on the map - I'm in no fear of having that uh oh I didn't research the right things moment and been overwhelmed but it's a bit silly

Having read up on the missions it's clear there is a way of min-maxing your soldiers to be absolute death machines and it's all over without taking any fire but I didn't do that

Still - loving the campaign and near the end I'm having what to do next time thoughts so I will play it thru again

Strangely compelling "Aska." Viking themed first person survival game. Plenty of NPC villagers to do your bidding. You spend much of your game time organizing them.   

The game is definitely not a rehash of "Valheim."

Winter is nasty. So much of the game year is getting your village to prepare.

Then there are the undead wave attacks, and the bears...

The game has taken some hits for "being too hard."  I don't see it that way. It just takes strategic planning to make certain you can come through winter without losing any peeps to frostbite. The game also allows you to tone down the difficulty...but so far I have been playing "vanilla" and liking it.
