Apologies for starting this thread early.
I'm new here, not really sure of the rules.
Just drove home from Camp Lejeune, where son finished SOI and just joined the 3-6 today.  Really impressed with the NCOs.

Got home a day early, and was hoping to see a Friday thread.

I'll try to start this one.

Let's see...

Pathfinder for some tabletop RPG gaming goodness

Divinity Original Sin

Huw the Poo

Dunno, just installed a new OS so I'm more likely to be tinkering with that than playing games this weekend.  But assuming I get the time:

Wurm Online of course

NeonXSZ

Celestian Tales: Old North is a JRPG-styled game which aren't very prevalent on Linux so I picked it up because I was in the mood for one.

In honour of his seniority here it's customary every Friday to post a link to any Bon jovi song you like for Metal Dog and work the lyrics into the thread title - something like 'you give FRIDAY a bad name' - he loves that one

Going to a big nerdfest tomorrow night to play some Sails of Glory and check out some of the other miniatures games. 

Still trying to attain my next rank in Naval Action.

Just finished Rise of the Tomb Raider so I'm not sure what to play next.


Hofstadter

Playing a bit of Close Combat Gateway to Caen. I'm not sure I am liking this, dont get much control over your soldiers. Hard to see the terrain and defensive capabilities.

Getting Mius Front as soon as it releases. Woohoo.

Also screwing around with Scourge Of War Waterloo mods.

I plan to play mostly the following games.

- Grand Ages: Rome...i failed twice at the "Cross the Rubicon" military scenario...it's challenging and fun, still i hope i manage this map this weekend.

- I will continue my second Master of Orion campaign with the Humans (first was with the Burathis). Take my time and don't pressure the AI too much.

Maybe a little of other games: Horizon, Stardrive 2 (DLC should be available soon) etc...

What did you think of Rise of the Tomb Raider?

I played Tomb Raider (last one) and I couldn't get into it. I'm still trying, but it's a slog tbh.

As for me, probably some F1 2015, pCars and I might start another campaign in Masters of Orion and take on a combat stance rather than a diplomatic mood...make friends with the other two factions and take on my biggest threat kind of thing.

My daughter is back from University this weekend for my birthday though and it's Mothers Day so I might not get a lot played.

I really enjoyed Rise of the Tomb Raider but if you didn't like Tomb Raider, you probably won't like this one either as they are quite similar.

JudgeDredd

Cool. Thanks. I'll see if Tomb Raider picks up for me.

Semper Fi, paplan. You must be extremely proud.

Miss Front, once it's released
Xcom 2
farcry Primal
MOO 3 for part 3 of my Lets play video series
Maybe some Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Future Soldier. Love the active camo.

Wednesday we head out for 2 weeks of vacation, so this weekend will be spent preparing.  What gaming I can get in  will be devoted to the new build of Predestination and perhaps firing up a new Victory and Glory campaign.

I'm not playing anything that really excites me at the moment.

JudgeDredd

paplan - sorry - I didn't know what your post meant. I believe congrats are in order. And as UCG says - normal practice is to honour MetalDog, anything Bon Jovi normally grabs his attention  >:D

JH - I absolutely love the GR series...especially the last one.

As for MOO3, I did watch one of your videos. As well done as it was (and kudos for doing them - anything for the community should be applauded), I just couldn't get into MOO3 (which I got as part of the MOO bundle) - not even with the help of your video...not after the beauty of the latest MOO. It may be a shell of the others and simplified, but it is stunning and I actually really enjoyed the game.

Mius Front - when I will finally have time to get my hands on it, that is.

Also - Sovereignty: Crown of Kings turned out to be surprisingly captivating.

Other than that I will continue my quest (not to say - grind) to earn enough cash to deck out my mercenaries with decent equipment in Battle Brothers.

You're not breaking any rules, paplan.  Just glad you like the tradition enough to want to start one of your own :) 

And congrats to you and your son!  You must be very proud!

Finally, don't listen to those who say Bon Jovi is the way.  God will deal with them for their treacherous taste.
