Arriba! What games are we playing this Cinco de Mayo?

[LongBlade]

Warlock. That game is addictive as (fill in the blank).

Also going to be working on some Flames of War minis. I am participating in an infantry campaign (working on an AAR but holding off publishing until we get some more games in so the wait won't be too long between serials). It's fun, but 15mm infantry is too small for me to really feel like I should invest in much detail. Still, I can't help myself - I'm filing off the seams where the cast molds were and lord help me I'll probably paint more detail than I should, though I draw the line and adding historical ranks and such. I just don't think at 15mm it's going to ever be appreciated...even by me.

So you actually acquired a full PR copy? Cheat! :P

Occupational hazard.

Btw, how many Miniature games are you playing?
I remember you playing Warhammer 40K, you're talking of Flames of War and in your avatar I see a mini from Dystopian wars.
Isn't it really expensive and time consuming beyond measure to be in the hobby for so many modeling-miniatures games???

So is there a celebration in every nation that once defeated France in a battle?  That's a lot of potential partying.

Weekend Games on the docket that will get some playtime for sure:
Day of Defeat
Port Royale 3 - (I'm a sucker for economic simulators and couldn't resist the pre-order temptation.)
CMBN

[Gusington]

^Probably all except Germany. Too much rubbing it in.

[Toonces]

^I've missed your avatar.

I was just thinking that when I saw Marty's avatar.  Where have you been hiding?!

Nice to see you here at last.

[Toonces]

I will undoubtably be playing various flavors and mods of Mount and Blade.

Skyrim will get a few minutes' play.

Rise of Flight.

Crusader Kings 2.

And I'm very seriously considering reinstalling Medieval 2: Total War to play alongside my continuing adventures in King Arthur.

It took me a while to find the place. I didn't realize that I had the PM's at the wargamer site. Sometimes I'm just not very observant  :)

[Gusington]

Too busy smiling at your desk.

Life's been good, hell even the Orioles look like a real baseball team this year!  :)

[Gusington]

^I wouldn't go that far :)

I will be down at Camden Yards the weekend of 6/15 to watch your Os play the Pirates, btw. Also catching two Nationals games against the Yankees.

Yeah well as bad as the O's have been the last 15 years, a winning month is cause for celebrations.

Nationals Stadium is really nice. Not as good as Camden Yards but it's a good ballpark.

Dawn of War: Dark Crusade

[Gusington]

Marty if you know of any Nationals fans please tell me. I have not been able to find one.

Not enough.

ATM I'm just playing Flames. But yes, I have WH40k, WH fantasy, Dystopian Wars, some Malifeaux. DGS has a new game system in the works that I need to look at.

Probably more if I sat down to think about it. Funny thing is, I never thought of myself as a minis guy. But minis are what everyone plays at my LGS so I've migrated into it.

- Tin soldiers: julius Caesar
