If I drink I will do better and if I don't I won't care anyway because I will be drinking.
Does drinking the quality stuff improve on your game performance then?  O0 Raising a glass to you now Sir! :coolsmiley:

I think i'll use the sale on gamersgate to finally get Civilization V  and, as my credit card is ready again...
Try to get the "Complete" version - as it has all the expansions, and DLC. It doesn't cost that much more than the other offerings. I got it for our Mac, which was a mistake :idiot2:, as the wife and the kids are permanently on it!  :-\

Looks like PBEM of John Tiller's Campaign Series with a buddy down in Texas, and if we get bored of that, some CMRT. Trying to convince him to play some Band of Brothers via VASSAL as well. My boxed version of said game is supposed to be arriving on my doorstep any minute now.

I'm trying hard not to cave in and buy WitP AE while it's on sale...but I'm wavering...

This weekend
Lots of Field of Glory - as competing in the Digital League with my Spartacus Army, plus a couple of friendly matches. All MP these days. The single player AI is quite good, but the MP community is just awesome. There are some really nice members, and we have a good laugh. 8)

I'll restart a DWU campaign, my last failing miserably as I was wiped out by the Shakturi... :'(

Investigating Pandora, and will eventually do a flash review on it, but need to play it for a bit first.

A couple of QBs/a scenario of Combat Mission - probably Red Thunder
There are a few other bits and bobs I'll dabble with if I get time. I keep meaning to start a Parthian Wars scenario for AJE/BOR, but never seem to get round to it.

And I'll follow Gus' example, and have a few beers to see if it improves my game too.... ;) ;D

I'm joining you in that!
I might try out some WitP:AE or Distant Worlds or who knows. I will certainly start watching "The Longest Day" tonight in honor of those brave men who hit the beaches 70 years ago. Maybe I should also start a WWII game as well.

Distant Worlds: Universe
Flashpoint Campaigns: Red Storm
Diablo 3

Maybe finally spend some time with Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy as well.

I'm also reading Viper Pilot and will probably finish that this weekend. Which is making me want to load up some Strike Fighters. Anyone know/remember if there are SEAD missions in Strike Fighters?

I'm going to try to play some Morrowind, for as long as I can hack it.  I have to say it hasn't grabbed like I had hoped, and I fear this will be my last try at getting into this game.  If it doesn't stick soon, I may just hang it up for good.

I also installed Wizardry 8, which I got on GoG a while ago.  I'm curious to see if it's as good as it's hyped up to be.  More and more I'm finding graphics DO make a difference with how much I like a game, regardless of how awesome the gameplay is.  Sadly.   :tickedoff:

I'm pretty sure there are SEAD missions in Strike Fighters 2 but it depends on which model you are flying.  They may be a bit rare, even then.  Think it has Shrikes too IIRC, depending on which pack(s) you're using.
