The last couple days, I've been mostly going back and forth between my new Wekkarus campaign in Distant Worlds: Legends, and kicking it old-school with Lords of the Realm 2.  Germany will be mine...regardless of what the Baron and Countess have to say about it! 

And per usual, I'm continuing my PBEM campaigns in Armada 2526 Supernova.  Am getting really REALLY annoyed with the Teyes in a couple of my games...   >:(

After recovering from the shock of realising your mothers day isnt on the same as UK mothers day and thinking it was this weekend (TFFT) ill be sailing the Carribean Sea and trading with nefarious doings in Port Royale 3.

Tonight i shall purchase CK2 and jump straight into a Leon campaign and fire up something in the AAR section, more informative than story so i can hopefully pass on some learned knowledge

Fly to South Africa tomorrow so god knows what ill be able to fire up there

This weekend starts my vacation so I"ll be leaving Sunday.  However before then I'll probably lost in 'Warlock: Masters of the Arcane' and maybe some BF3

I will be playing the usual suspects:

- Tin Soldiers: Julius Caesar

and

- Armada 2526 Supernova pbem

maybe some Master of Orion or Revenge of the Titans which i play with my son...

Other than "Weeds vs. Homeowner" I'll try to get some more exploring of Warlock in. Also want to try out the Xenonauts demo.

Huw the Poo

I'll be playing more Evochron Mercenary on that server I found.  Also, just slightly late to the party, but I've just discovered Company of Heroes.  I had a quick go at it last night and I plan to take a longer look over the weekend.  May even investigate this Men of War business too.

Always playing Stronghold Kingdoms.

I bought Alan Wake but I'll be off taking a course all weekend so I likely won't play anything.

SDR, Did you buy from GOG. I am really tempted but would appreciate your early impressions before I pull the trigger.

^Me too! Please post details. Suddenly Alan Wake is on my radar.

Until the release of Diablo III I will also be playing Warlock: Master of the Arcane. Just dipped my toes in last night and enjoyed my intro.

Conflict of Heroes and Warlock for me.

I'll be fishing in Skyrim. If you haven't seen the mod, Fishing in Skyrim, it will allow you to buy a fishing net in most shops that goes into your Misc. inventory. Just walk up to any deep water lake or stream, drop the net in and wait a few seconds and the net returns with randomly generated items, usually ingredient items such as varieties of fish and seaweed but sometimes gems or dragonbones and even junk like shoes, rusty buckets and human remains. Certain areas are more productive than others and if overfished the area will be empty until it respawns. You can also buy, Dwarven Fishing Poles-- sticks of explosive-- so you can do some redneck fishing. The only problem is you can't watch for dragons very well while your watching your net.

Company of Heroes 2 has been announced I'm so excited!!!!!!

I'll be playing Armada 2526 SuperNova Pbem with my partners.  I'll also try to fit in some Dawn of War II Chaos Rising in celebration of the recent announcement of Coh2.


But after taking care of my mom and my wife this weekend, I plan on spending most of my time popping chievos on my Xbox.  Here are the games I'm going for:

Toy Soldiers
Fruit Ninja
Fable 3
Civilization Revolution

^Post impressions of Toy Soldiers! I bought it but won't have a chance to play it for a while.

I've got a 5K Saturday morning and then a hospital fundraiser saturday night in NJ at my girl's hospital. So its going to be a tight weekend.  But hopefully Sunday I can get some Warlock, Endless Space and maybe some more Cortex Command in!

I'm taking the wife and family to Turtle Bay up on the North Shore this weekend to drink cocktails and play in the pool, so no real gaming on Saturday and most of Sunday.

I have been making some real progress in my King Arthur campaign and I suspect I'll play some of that tonight.  I can only play it in small doses- it's really hard and I get burned out after an hour or two at the most.

Mount and Blade online continues to be a favorite time-waster for me- I played about an hour on a siege server last night and just had a blast.

Finally, they have Witcher 2 on sale for $25 at the Exchange nearby, so I'm going to pick that up.  I don't know if I'll get to it this weekend, though.
