Lay down sleep my little FRIDAY

[Hofstadter]

Shadow Warrior 2 is pretty fun, very borderlandsish but the dick jokes get old FAST. Not getting Civ, find it pretty boring to be honest. Got an arma three mission, so gonna do that while drinking a bottle of the only red wine that doesnt make me gag

[jamus34]

So I broke down and picked up shadow warrior 2 and Witcher 3 GOTY edition. Installing now.

I dunno, Wang jokes never get old to me. A healthy diet of South Park and general immaturity I guess.

Nice tune MD

I've jumped into PBEM with CSME after decades of playing AI only. finished two already where i didnt even sniff a draw and have 3 going, 2 with Crossroads, 1 with Jason, talk about jumping into the deep end. Having fun get my little pixel troops used and abused, you figure out quick how lazy your play is when playing another person vs the AI. I'll fit in a visit to 7 days to die server to check hows things are going and maybe some Action PC football or golf.

Played a little DCS yesterday morning and a lot of Civ V most of the afternoon (Still unemployed for another week, so can't do any splurges of release day software purchases yet). Battling a cold, but still will try and slip in some more DCS and Civ V, and maybe a little World of Warships as well.

Glad you liked it, -budd-!  Good luck in your battles!  O0

Been dealing with a case of man flu this week. Due to work load and other people being gone I had to suffer at work the first half the week but was finally able to call out and rest Thursday and Friday. Which was fortunate because it let me dive into the new Stellaris patch and DLC.

Started an ironman (have come to regret this choice) as some Cat people. I set up the galaxy to have all races use warp line movement. Normally don't really like this style of movement, but it does make some of the otherwise worthless systems use full defensively if its a choke point. I had most of my arm to myself, and had started to expand into the next arm which only had one point of entry at the end. Things where going well. Then I decided to conquer some systems from a small empire that was pinned into a corner by me and another empire. Their fleet firepower ranking was equal but I had superior naval capacity and overall technology. They had a slight firepower edge in the first and only battle but my whole fleet disintegrated about 2 seconds after contact was made. That point I said **** it and deleted the save. Going to be starting a new game today using some mods now that most of the ones I normally use have been updated for the patch. Also thinking of doing my own ship mod. None of the ones I'm finding are really to my taste.

Keeping with the space theme for the weekend, I'll be continuing my journey to Bernard's Loop in Elite. I finally got around to configuring Voice Attack and damn is it cool. Configuring wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. Didn't have to change any of my HOTAS bindings like I feared. I think the only ones that I ended up changing where my bindings for the galaxy and system maps. Best $20 I've spent for a game addon in a long time.

Rounding out my weekend will be World of Warcraft and possibly a match or two of World of Warships.

Voice Attack is very good...but you spent $20?  Thought it was only $10?  Either way, good stuff.

Voice Attack is $10 but then I spent another $10 on the ASTRA Voice Pack from HCS.

Ah, gotcha...either way I agree with you, wonderful tool

Killer tune. Like Sabbath and Green Day had a love child. Forget the no work at the cabin. Swept the chimney. Watching the taped Bama-A&M game. Go Aggies. Not looking too promising at half.

Goddammit I sat through 7 hours of wind and rain to watch Army lose pathetically to North Texas. I need some gaming therapy.

Friday 

Binge reading this weekend. Books. Remember them? 

I subscribed to Airfix Modeller back in February and I've (obviously) had a magazine every month. I've just finished the May edition  ;D

I have found out anything printed on paper is such a drag to read. With Kindle, I can read with the Kindle itself, or pick up my iPad or even cell phone if I am stuck somewhere while say commuting or what not. I very much like most of boardgame 'living rules' are out as PDFs nowadays as well, so can load them to my iBook and Kindle libraries.

I have to say that I don't think I could go back to regular box just for that reason. I buy a book on Kindle and I can read it on that or if I've got downtime at work I can pull it up on my cell phone and read.    I have PDF manual's and probably about 70 books on that thing.  Plus the new ones have color

Real books smell good and have a nice weight to them.

Civilization 6 and Battlefield 1 so far. Perhaps Stellaris will join them by the end of the weekend.

I use both.

I have some series where I will pre-order every hardcover (right now this includes pretty much everything by Sanderson and Butcher)

For book series I'm not sure I want to re-read or if it is an ebook then my kindle comes in handy.
