The weekend started for me at 4:55 PST on Tuesday. So far its been a mix of Diablo 3 and Kerbal Space Program. The rest of the weekend will be a mix of:

Kerbal Space Program - Been practicing basic maneuvers in sandbox mode this week. No inter planet trips, but I've done several trips to both of Mun and Minmus. I even started building my first space station in Kerbin orbit. Going to start my first career game this weekend. Also been trying out various mods and now my KSP install is starting to look like my Skyrim folder.

Distant Worlds: Universe: Most of my time will be spent with this. One of my most anticipated releases of the year.

Wasteland 2: Along with an official release date announcement, it got a major patch this week.

Diablo 3: I got several legendary blacksmith plans during the anniversary event this week, now I need to start hunting down the unique crafting materials required to make them.

Distant Worlds:Universe, of course. I also plan to get in some retro PC board-gaming. I just reinstalled Armageddon Empires and Montjoie!

Greybriar · May 23, 2014, 05:56:24 AM

Dailies for World of WarCraft, HearthStone, and World of Tanks. I'm not sure what else, but I recently acquired Democracy 3, 1849, and Blackguards. I may fire up Age of Wonders III or one of several games I purchased last week from GOG and GamersGate, including Fall Weiss. Decisions, decisions.

It's Memorial Day on Monday, here in the States. It's a day of remembrance for the men and women who died in the service of their country's armed forces. It also serves as the unofficial start of the summer season. BBQ's and family gatherings. And beer. Lots and lots of beer. So, us U.S. gamers have a three day weekend and a little added something to think about with our hobby.

I chose to extend the three day weekend by taking the rest of the week off, so, after work today, I am a free man until 7am on June 2nd! It won't be the gaming bonanza I could hope for, but, there will be copious amounts of time spent on various contests of digital daring. And if you see me online, and want to get a game going, hit me up!

Just coming to the end of my week off as this past Monday was Victoria Day here in Canada.

Played more CiV than I expected.
Played lots of WoT on Xbox too.

Also played lots of Yardman and Honey Do Lister.... my aching back....

Just received Cards of Cthulhu KS edition so have to break that out. Hoping to get Unconditional Surrender today as well.
So looks like a board gaming weekend. :)

75K xp on all seven nations Tiers IV-VIII (only top ten finishes count) Japanese was a real grind....

Anguille · May 23, 2014, 06:40:26 AM

I am going to play mostly the following 2 games:

- Horizon: Humans in Space about to win my first game (cough on cough easy cough).
- Total War Battles: Shogun about to finish the campaign.

BanzaiCat · May 23, 2014, 06:43:21 AM

Last weekend of the show I'm in, but with the extra day, maybe I can get my writing for the Birth of the Federation AAR and some reviews I owe, done this weekend.

Blakjack · May 23, 2014, 06:53:25 AM

My wife and I want to use the weekend to get away from all-things related to being house fire victims. We want normal! So, bearing that in mind, the weekend plans include:

Today: Get off work early & go see a movie! X-Men: Days of Future Past is starting.

Tomorrow: We have a nice long motorcycle ride planned with our Southern Cruisers chapter. If you've ever been to Hillbilly Hotdog in northern WV you'll know where we're headed. It'll be about a 300 mile day & the weather forecast is really good (for once)

Sunday: Since my wife is a Children's Minister, we'll be going to church then after that its GAMING SUNDAY - I'll be diving into Drums of War and Heroes of Stalingrad finally, with some sprinklings of Frontlines: Road to Moscow thrown in.

Monday: Family picnic - can't wait. :)

Happy weekend and Memorial Day everyone!

Gusington · May 23, 2014, 07:42:05 AM

I too am free after today until June 2. Traveling to St. Louis with my buddies for.the first half, when back home will be starting the Rome 2 Hannibal at the Gates campaign. Have a good Memorial Day to all in 'Murica.

undercovergeek · May 23, 2014, 08:18:58 AM

Long weekend here too

There will be war game red Dragon, and ck 2

Sir Slash · May 23, 2014, 08:44:36 AM

In honor of Memorial Day, I will be having some Hot Wings and a couple of stiff drinks in memory of all the digital soldiers who've laid- down their digital lives in all manner of poorly executed battles and campaigns I've sent them into. It's the least I could do... and the least I can do is usually what I do. I will be sending them more company from CMRT and Decisive Campaigns WtP where I've gone from Case White to Case Yellow, the same as my teeth when I forget to brush and floss when I play this game too much. Thank you Service Men and Women everywhere for your sacrifices. O0
