JudgeDredd · July 18, 2014, 03:03:04 AM

I absolutely fell in love with this woman back in my youth... (I can't for the life of me work out how to embed a Youtube video!)

But, given she's not in my life, I'll be gamingm this weekend...so what's on offer?

A few games of OOTP 15
Fire up Steel Beasts Pro and see what the fuss is about...at least learn it!

I've got all my primer and Tamiya paints - so I'm hoping to break the fear of my compressor and air brush and use them. I still don't know if I'm going to repaint my Challenger II yet...I'm sooooo tempted to do so...

Some Steelbeasts Pro with Asid if all goes well today (JD why don't you join us around noon on SB Teamspeak? ;) )

Otherwise will be busy on my PS4 and Vita for some Persona 4, Soul Sacrifice, Watch Dogs and FFXIV (yup! Have some free time this weekend! )

tgb · July 18, 2014, 05:00:33 AM

Divinity:Original Sin, now that the new patch is out. Perhaps Star Ruler 2 if word on today's Early Release is positive. Still waiting on word on the Sovereignity beta.

Yeah Blondie!

For me it will be a couple of PBEM Commander The Great War games, including one with Gus (my situation will become much more difficult once les Amies arrive in force). Wargame Red Dragon is also on my gaming menu and maybe some RPG but not sure which one.

We have house guests this weekend, friends of my wife's and their annoying kid, so not much gaming to be had.....

I bought Battle Fleet 2 fer my iPad yesterday and it seems good so far. Nice campaign feature included.

I also have Desert Fox, the 3rd Crisis in Command series for the iPad. Challenged DicedT .... see if he's up to the challenge! ;)

There's also a new Planet of the Apes update for Plague Inc. Great fun trying to get the apes to take over the world.

So mostly iPad stuff in the quiet moments in the morning or late evening.

I am on now (13 GMT), but Asid isn't (yet). :)

I'm at work :(

Hey Judge,

I thought I knew my Blondie real well but you surprised me with that gem. Thanks! Blondie was one of my crushes as well when I was a kid.

I feel for you man! Duck and cover as much as possible brother. ;)

Gusington · July 18, 2014, 07:54:43 AM

Some PBEM Commander: The Great War, some Strategic Command WWI (Middle East scenario - Kut), some Over Flanders Fields, and Wolfenstein - The New Order waiting in the wings.

Also have annual training for the NY Guard starting Sunday lasting the whole week. So Shelldrake if you don't get a turn back from me, that's why.

Perfectly understandable....physical exhaustion, sleep deprivation, excessive alcohol consumption I remember well from my time in the Canadian Armed Forces. Have fun! ;D

TheCommandTent · July 18, 2014, 08:39:57 AM

Hopefully some Civil War II and Divinity Original Sin. Also hoping the next patch Commander: The Great War comes out soon before I start a new game.

Blondie was great. I remember one song especially: accidents never happen in a perfect world....precognition in my ears....

Speaking of which -- my third wife and our two kids -- they are all going away for 2 weeks!

Lots of gaming will ensue: WITPAE PBEM, some boardgames and an indeterminate amount of Heroes and Generals. I keep expecting to
get fed up with such an arcadey FPS, but there are just enough fun elements so far to keep me going. Maybe another week or two even.

A little birdie told me that will be coming to Steam soon, so you might want to wait.

Command: I got my first Red Storm scenario to the point where its ready for testing. I still have to do event scripting but the scenario is playable. I have a couple of things I want to try to do to add some re-playability to it, but I'm not sure if its going to work our not. Want to finish up the rest of the major items on the to do list then move on to my next scenario. I'm debating between and expansion of my current Ghostrider strike scenario, or a sub based scenario with the player charged with intercepting a Soviet amphibious group.

Distant Worlds: Continue my Kiadian campaign and AAR.

Xenonuats: Going to start another new game. Lasting a little longer every time I start. Going to try and get a second base up and running from the get go rather then waiting for a month or two. Probably going to try out some mods this time as well.

Skyrim: Loving my Breton Battlemage. Haven't started any off the major questlirne except the main one. Wondering in the general direction of the college of winterhold, but am getting distracted by random cave/ruins.

Divinity OS: Going to give it one last shot. Having a hard time getting back into it. Shame, from the stories I've been reading I should be loving it but I'm not. Right now I think its just going to be one of those regretted purchases and become shelf ware in my Steam library.
