Marshall Tucker Band, 1973


And a little bit of trivia for Memorial Day: The lead guitarist in Marshall Tucker was Toy Caldwell.  Prior to his time with Marshall Tucker, he was a Marine and wounded in Vietnam. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toy_Caldwell


As far as gaming: I'm working on BoC, getting an updated image package out for CMO, finishing up a Combat Mission video AAR (which should be posted in the next couple of days, working on my Battle of Britain AAR, my Rule the Waves 3 AAR, reading the rules for GMT's "Sea of Thunder" and planting Hostas (yeah, I know that isnt' gaming, but it is unfortunately a big part of my life right now.... :cry:

In anticipation of the SGS games "We The People-New American Revolution" and "Battle for Spain" on the SCW in a few months I have picked up their games " Halls of Montezuma" about the US Mexican War in the 1840's and "Heia Safari" about the WW1 East African Campaign so I can practice the SGS rules.

Got both for just £12 in total so not much of a risk.

So far just played the first couple of moves in the Montezuma game and really like it.

1973 Was when music, and Life, was grand.  :Dreamer:   Many distractions this weekend but I'm gonna try to get a little closer to Victory in WitE 1, but probably will only get a chance to play a little Solasta or Second Front. Have a great Memorial Day weekend Grogs!

Still having fun with New World.  Downloaded WH40K Gladius Relics of War for free on Steam but won't be getting to it any time soon.

Just came back from my business trip in Amman, Jordan, where I played some Chariots of war, civ 3 and Ozymandias (with the middle east setting). With this long weekend ahead, I think I will finally manage to play something but I don't know what yet. Imperiums could be a nice option (@Gus).  :Dreamer:

UA Dreadnoughts - now playing
Probably Shadow Empires (a new game with all of the recent beta updates)
Possibly TW Warhammer III. Maybe they finally patched it into a decent game.

Dammit Carl!

Feels ya on the planting stuff, Tripoli; I've a slew of tomato plants coming in that need to be parceled out to other pots as well as planter boxes that need attention prior to being used.  Not to mention the typical yard stuffs needing attention.  Still enjoy the work, mind you, in an "old man puttering around the yard listening to his music," kind of way.

Think I'll dl "GR: Breakpoint," and add in the "Spartan," mod for some good, ol' fashioned killin'.

Stay safe, folks!

Got a great game of Shadow Empire going right now on a huge planet. Man you never stop learning with this game.

Also TWWH3 as the Chaos Dwarves. Fun stuff.

On the ropes right now as the Confederacy in my SCACW PBEM...

Continuing my WITE2 campaign.  Mid January and Soviets are slowly pushing me back.  I had been fairly conservative in my advance and preserved my strength at the cost of not reaching Kharkov, Orel, Rhzev.  My main adversary is the Blizzard attrition.

If it's Jan 44 you should walk it ....

Well Heroes & Generals is no longer online as the developer pulled the plug on it this past week.  I'm still in disbelief after spending well over 3000 hours on the game.  My go to shooter with heavy RPG elements is gone. 

I'm sad...
