Hegemony Gold Wars of Ancient Greece.

Cyrano

Campaign: Waterloo (PBEM)

Commander: The Great War -- Austro-Hungarian Empire is out, but I let the bastards sue for peace too soon thus securing Doug's southern flank.  In other news, I've sent my second Portuguese Army to the Levant in the hope that it can make its way to Jerusalem.

CMAK against a long-time opponent who has left CMx2 for past glories...

SB: WWI against Boggit...scuttling like so many crabs at the moment...

Napoleon at Leipzig (OSG)...maybe solo, maybe get lucky and a buddy comes over and plays...

And, if we can manage it, co-op SoW:W with Doug which, given the whipping we took the last time, shouldn't have been half as fun as it proved to be.  It was a rare experience watching the men of the 4th Division plodding into place and wanting to reach through the screen, grab its commander by the neck, and insist on greater exertions...

Oh, that and playing "Ace of Aces" out in the yard with my son.  Gratitude to Vance on that one!

Best,

Jim

Happy B-Day, Tuna!

Witp: AE is still commanding my attention. I am 3 1/2 months into the 1942 campaign as the Japanese. It took awhile to get over the hump, but I got there. This is easily the most complex computer game I have played and ranks right up there with Eurofront on the board game side. Now each turn requires not much input from me, so the days can fly by.

I also played some Ark Survival this week, a gift from a relative. Its a good game, they are truly doing a good job. Yet, the game hasn't captured my heart. I wanted a survival game, but you are only really at the "survival" stage for a six or so hours. After that, thriving becomes pretty easy. After you are thriving, the only thing to do is tame more dinos and build bigger houses. Despite living in a land of dinos, you really aren't in too much danger. That is really my biggest gripe, I want to run for my life when I see a T-Rex! All you need to do is tame a fast dino and your safe from just about anything.

...which is why I bought 7 Days to Die! I am hoping it will scratch my survival/building itch.

Yeah, after the recent talk on 7 Days here I went back in. A lot's changed since I last played. It seems a bit easier now (which might be good). I'm currently in a huge apartment building on the edge of city. In the earlier versions I couldn't even enter a city without dying!

I was all in on ARMA 3 last night.

I gave up about 20k in helo's last night.  Apparently, not only can I not drive drunk, but I also can't fly drunk.  As my scotch intake increased so did my debt as I rolled Pawnees into trees, telephone wires, etc. 

I made the cash up by sitting in the target zone while watching YouTube for a few hours, but still, man did I crash the crap out of some stuff last night!

I only got a few matches of World of Warships in yesterday. Been a long week at work so I passed out on the couch as soon as I walked in the door from work around noon.

Will be doing my weekly CMANO stream today, although sleeping all day yesterday threw my original scenario design plans out the window. After the stream, its going to be the same mix of CMANO, CK2, and World of Warships that I've had over the last few weeks.
PanzersEast: Have to think to myself.... will I play the first one by the Winter Sale?  Probably not, then I should remove Dragonfall
PanzersEast: but that is thinking too logically.... and Steam Sales are about ignoring Logic

Also patiently awaiting the arrival of Grand Ages Medieval and Oriental Empires.

Otherwise, not sure what i'll be able to play as i have so little time...some Horizon i guess and i feel the wish to start Hegemony Rome.

Last few days of vacation, spending time on bbs, playing Victoria 2, and  feeding lil Alexander the Great while watching Ken Burns 'The Civil War'.   O0

^ I bought the Ken Burns set a while back. I've been waiting to have that Civil War itch to play before I start to watch them...perhaps I shouldn't put them off any longer

Tonight it's a Bronx Bomber pie from Lopardo's. 

Gaming wise though?  Finishing up the campaign on Expeditions Conquistador and some Pike and Shot Campaigns.
