Even with my nice long weekend, I know I won't get to all of them, but it's nice to have choices (and a plan, of sorts).  :D

Played WITE as the Soviets defending against the Axis onslaught during my gaming time yesterday. Finally finished up my Barbarossa defense. Trying to figure out if I want to play another campaign as the Soviets giving the Axis AI more teeth or play a full campaign as the Axis to see how much I can conquer & hold.

Got a couple of hours in this morning on CK 2 Charlemagne.  I am playing as the titular ruler.    I married the King of Lombardy's daughter.  That led to an alliance between our kingdoms that immediately embroiled me in a war against the Umayyads in Spain.  The Duke of Aquitaine rebelled, in an effort to gain more power.  The High Chieftain of Saxony declared war on me for Thuringia and brought five of his friends with him.  And my Spymaster, the Queen Mother, just came back from Paris after murdering her son, my brother, leaving me with a vast new kingdom and the ability to (maybe) quash rebellions and settle things with the Saxon heathen.  All this in the first three years of game play.

Pillars of Eternity-- finished up the crazy cultists quest under Dryford village with a ton of loot. Very Baldur's Gate-ish.

Finally got chance to get my hands on XCOM 2 - love it

Last mission was having to hack the enemy network in an abandoned factory. Taking it as slow as possible, Gus, MD and random soldier out front, Bob on the roof providing sniper cover. After killing the first guards, reinforcements land and hide behind the factory wall, until Gus spots a fuel tank and explodes the whole front wall, killing 3 more and opening the factory up. Bob takes out 3 guards from a house roof and then makes his way to ground level to provide support - MD enters the factory and spots another team led by a sectoid - man theyre much more mean and nasty in this one, little cartoon guys from the first game are hardcore baddies in this one. Random soldier runs for the data console and steals the data, getting wounded on the way. Gus is mind controlled by the sectoid but only 'disorientated' not actually controlled so hes ok, just reduced stats - he has some kind of mass shredding auto cannon as the heavy weapons guy and disintigrates 2 baddies, whilst Bob takes out the leader with a pistol shot to the face. Data hacked, all baddies dead, jobs done until a last security team come through the door - id left everyone out of cover because i thought this was the last turn - wrong!!! A guard jumps through the window of the data room and kills random soldier, Bob gets shot running for some cover and MD is fully mind controlled by a new sectoid and starts shooting at Gus. MD is a valid target for the guys but im not going to kill him, just hide in cover - fortunately he was nearly out of ammo before i lost control of him and i dont know if the AI reloads or not because he stopped shooting, just advancing menacingly on the Gus - we need to take out the sectoid, Gus lobs a grenade right at its fight and its turned to ketchup, MD is returned to my control and Bob just looks cool - its done, victory - great mission

Operation Spider Face? Is that a reference about Bawb's Stache?  ::) Sounds like fun. More please.

Once nice touch you can't see in the screenshot, is that while you're busy checking and promoting your troops, the transport is riding the craft elevator down into the hanger.


The operation name generator is HUGELY entertaining. (That was true in XC1, too.)
