So far I've clicked on and stared in amazement at the oob for the cmano scenario - I'll get stuck in later

Some PBEM turns

And watched churchills funeral on tv - what a moving and emotional spectacle that was

[Blucher]

War Plan Orange PBEM
France '14 PBEM
WITE vs A.I.

Maybe try to figure out SSG's Korsun Pocket again

How is War Plan Orange?  I've always been tempted by the subject matter...


As for me, it'll be some CMBS PBEM and it sounds like Jim will be sending me some Liepzig turns. If I can get sufficiently recharged to want to play something solo I'm not quite sure what that will be. I might have to dig through some neglected games that I haven't given much time to lately like Flashpoint Campaigns or Steam and Iron.

War Plan Orange has a lot less micromanagement then WITP AE.  I can bang out turns in half hour or less. It's an interesting game in that you have to use cruisers, destroyers and subs to scout because planes in this era are almost useless.  Find his fleet and then have a Pacific "Jutland" battle. It's cool because in the 1922 scenario you have Pre-Dreadnoughts and Battleships, Battlecruisers. So if your into naval history you will see a lot of early 20th century late 19th century ships in the OOB.  If your going to play it go PBEM the AI is not very good.

Where did you watch Churchill's funeral UCG? I've never seen it.

just a documentary on BBC 1 it was 50 years in Jan, im assuming it was a repeat and a filler this morning

I got no gaming in on Friday, but today have done my turns for 3 Field of Glory games, 1 for Commander Great War, and 1 for SB First World War - where Jim (Cyrano) already has me by the balls and it's only turn 1! It's the bad terrain I tell ya! ;)

Yes, I'm familiar with the battle.  Are we talking about a PC game or boardgame?  I suppose I could just Google it, but what's the fun in that, eh Gus?

Sir Slash that was a very moving tribute to your mom.  She must have been proud to have a son like you and I'm sure she still is looking down from heaven at you.   O0

Yes -  that's the game. Jim and I have been doing a two-sided AAR of our fight for Lowenberg for the mythical other portions of the GH site: http://grogheads.com/?p=6596

The next bit should be going up shortly. We're about to go at it hammer and tongs.

[Gusington]

^Careful, you'll put your eye out!

I think we're ok as long as there's no running.

[Gusington]

Oh there will be running...

As Wolfenstein : The Old Blood downloads, I'm felling time with Assassin's Creed Chronicles China. I'll be breaking out Medina and Murano on the table quite soon, though.

And with the shiny new graphics card installed, I hear the beckoning call of GTA V. Once payment for my last freelance job hits...
