It's here!!  It's here!!  The Force Awakens is finally here!!!  I am hoping to go Sunday to see The Force Awakens.  If that's all I accomplish this weekend, it will be TOTALLY worth it!  If some gaming happens in the meanwhile, it's all good.

All that Star Wars nerd love and no Star Wars gaming?  Weak.

I'll be waiting for Force Unleashed to come out on DVD so I can watch it at home away from all the freakos at the movies.  Meanwhile, I'm enjoying greatly learning to play the Wrath of Sparta campaign in Rome 2.  I'll probably supplement that with some Rising Storm shooty-shooty this weekend.  Not sure what else just yet.

A weekend of beta-testing for me with both Victory & Glory and Last Days of Old Earth waiting to be put through their paces.  When I need a palette cleanser, there's Space Food Truck.

Dammit Carl!

In my pursuit of all things East Fronty, I have started the long, grueling slog that is Red Orchestra 2 and I have to say that I am impressed with the level of gameplay that I've had so far.  While I'm used to FPSes, they are more along the lines of Team Fortress 2, Unreal and so on; games where good, combined teamwork is good but not essential per se.  RO2 has shown me a whole new world of how good a good, team-based shooter can be.

I never got this much thrill out of Insurgency - must be the subject matter, I guess.

Will probably pick up Rising Storm to round out the package and to be able to get in on some PTO action.

After Star Wars it's wings and drinks at Hooters and then back to getting my ass handed to me in Civil War II's New Mexico campaign along with DC Case Blue where I'm actually winning. And then there's this whole Christmas thing to deal with. But wings and drinks and Star Wars should help. Happy Force Awakens Day Grogs.

Last day of work today for 3 weeks.  :D

There will be VASSAL work that I'm a little behind on.

There will be PBEM Barbarossa with JP that I'm way behind on.

There will be PBEM Wing Leader with SDR that I'm actually ahead on for a change.

There will be PBEM Heroes of Normandie with Cyrano that the Dice Gods have forsaken me in.

There will be Star Wars Force Awakens on Christmas Eve with my wife.

There might be Civ IV MP if 2K comes through with their conversion of my disc copies to Steam... so far they seem receptive.

There will be ripping the head off the engine of my Miata to get at some bad valves.... should be fun as I've never done it before.

If time the new Star Wars with the family, after a Return of the Jedi refresher.

Then I will attempt to pull myself away from AssCreed Syndicate, my new favorite AssCreed of all.

Then starting a new Shogun 2 Fall of the Samurai campaign...it's been too long.Then maybe some Verdun. Then installing Wings Over Flanders Fields on the new rig.

Then formulating a plan to ignore the impending Steam sale.

  Last day of work for 16 days.  I counted each one.  I'm checking the list twice.

  I have big trees to finish splitting down to firewood: ChokeCherry (very nice firewood), Maple, Oak, Hickory and Locust.  And then I'm
going off to Cape Ann, but there will be bits of gaming:  some Vassal and some Armored Warfare.

Wasn't initially planning to see it but I had of today anyway so I figured what the hell. It's good. Not earth shattering or anything but good.
Need a haircut then I'm off onto my second real attempt at HOI3. First ended when I realized I didn't nearly build up enough prior to the start of WW2. this run I think is going better (currently in early 37)
Also going to pick up civil war 2 and I think DC: case blue. I want Barbarossa but since it's not on sale anyway I can wait
Insert witty comment here.

Sitting at the theatre waiting for Star Wars to start:). Gaming takes a back seat for awhile:)

Underrail just released & got it's final content update. 

May test out the waters sometime this weekend, see if I should wait on a patch or anything.  I generally give at least a week or two for the initial patch flurry to settle down before getting serious.

Also may pick up Comic Book Hero, in the meantime, since Grey Dog just released it on Steam in the past week.  Never bothered before due to their in-house DRM activation, but now that's not a problem.   I see there is a Marvel '90s mod for it, so tipping further into "yes".  Wouldn't mind a different flavor of text sim from all the sports ones I own.  Gonna get nerd-tastic in this bitch.

Attempting to break into Germany in War in the West. Once again Market Garden just can't crack it. My paras are about to be surrounded by 60,000 jack-booted storm troopers and XXX Corps, only 10 miles away, will soon run out of supplies.



In addition to reliving this humiliation, I may get my head shot off multiple times in Verdun and try not to crash my aircraft in ARMA3.
