Lay your hands on FRIDAY, lay your hands on FRIDAYYYYY!

[Nefaro]

Steel Beasts Pro multi-player, when I can peel away for a good long time.  O0


Got some new goodies to bust out on the table too.

[bayonetbrant]

As of today, I have 6 master sets and something like 8 expansion sets. It's getting stupid.  ;D

GenCon 2006 Heroscape table






2007 table

Is that a cry for intervention, Brant?  ;D

TCT how are you liking the Spartan campaign? It's either Sparta or Macedon next for me.

So far its been alot of fun.  I'm trying an experiment and keeping a campaign journal of sorts that if all goes well I might turn into an AAR.

I loved the Thompson Twins!

One of the greatest songs of all time.

Oh, almost forgot...Elite, Civ IV and maybe some NTW.

[Huw the Poo]

Dota 2

We just lost a game we should have won.  The enemy team had a Phantom Lancer who really knew what he was doing.  By the end of the game he had an army of illusions and his push was insane.  I actually laned against him, mid, as Viper and got a couple of early kills, but as soon as he came online there was nothing we could do.  It didn't help that we had a Pudge who didn't land a single hook that I saw, and a Lion who died more than anyone else in the game.  Bah.

I'm stuck on what I think is the last level of Mag-Runner so I'm hoping to crack that.  I'm also playing Xenonauts and cursing the jump-suit cladded morons serving as my foot sloggers.

I saw the Thompson Twins live back in 85.  They were blown off the stage by their opening band...OMD.  None the less, I still like T3.

Big surprise but I'll be playing CKII all weekend.  I've gone so far as to Ebay some stuff around the house so I could pick up some of the DLC without going over my gaming budget.

Distant Worlds AAR

Xenonauts - Starting yet another new game. Damn this game is tough. I'm making it a little farther every attempt, but I don't think I'm remotely close to actually winning the fight against the alien scum.

Skyrim - I tried switching from Nexus Mod Manager to Mod Organizer by the STEP team this week. Why people think its better then NMM is beyond me. The only thing that's even close to being better is that it doesn't affect your vanilla data folder. I uninstalled it less then an hour after install. Now I get to rebuild my install with NMM..again.

Command - More Red Storm Rising scenario work.

I'm really really REALLY tempted to buy into the Elite beta, but $75 is a bit much to throw down for a beta.

[Toonces]

I'm going to commit to some Scourge of War, but that's all for now.

Oh, and Morrowind.  I've been spending a bit more time with it and I'm starting to get a more drawn in than previous attempts.

[Cyrano]

Gentleman who designed Heroscape (met him at the GenCon in the photos) has a background in history.

He deliberately smuggled in the knights, Romans, and continentals, and was hoping to do some French Imperial Guard before the system was shut down.

The spooky thing is that, although the turns get long, the system is so simple it doesn't break in the mega-games.  Tribute, I think, to the design.

Best,

Jim

I'll mostly be playing the Sovereignty beta this weekend, with hopefully some Pandora: First Contact and maybe a little Rome II on the side. 

[Arctic Blast]

I don't have quite enough stuff to make THOSE levels... ;D

[JasonPratt]

Succeeded in finishing my second cup as the Amazons in Blood Bowl; will begin writing up and posting Season Two of the AAR next. (Which shouldn't take nearly as long as Season One as I don't have any prologue material per se. Yet.  >:D )

[smithcorp]

A weekend of:

Flashpoint Campaigns: Red Storm - playing a PBEM with a fellow SB:ProPE VU member. We are playing his first PBEM in it, sticking with 2.03 as we started that way;

Ilya Muromets - the Rise of Flight spinoff in Beta. Getting to grips with the big and poorly-armed bomber and trying out some missions from the included campaign;

IL2 Battle of Stalingrad - the other Rise of Flight spinoff, checking out the new controversial FW-190;

Rise of Flight - I've been getting used to the flight quirks of the Gotha and want to fly a cross-Channel strike on England, as well as trying out the newly released Hanriot;

DCS World - Belsimtek Sabre - still getting used to this lovely aircraft, helped by some useful community video tutorials.

A flight-sim heavy weekend, during a golden age in flight sims!
