RIP Randy Meisner

BoC work for me. Finishing up a small scenario in CMO. Wrapping up phase one of my AAR in Rule the Waves.

More Field of Glory 2: Medieval with some Knights of Honor 2, Crusader Kings 2 and maybe a dash of A Plague Tale - Requiem.

Trying out Baldur's Gate 3 (early access) to get ready for full release next week.

Have a cool weekend.

Playing Farthest Frontier. Having fun so far, but I've barely scratched the surface of what looks like a pretty deep city builder.

Have been playing a good game as Sparta in Imperium Greek Wars this week. I intend to complete it.

I've been playing a lot of WW1 Tannenberg in a desperate attempt to find an FPS to replace my beloved Heroes & Generals (which is now permanently shutdown).

Still on my choppy-chop trip on the Chivalry 2 trail - playing and trying to max my archer class as I'm a masochist at the moment.

Otherwise, the estate workings I mentioned last week has turned up a bonus for me: a no-shit box of D&D stuff from a corner in the attic. All the materials inside were in really, really remarkable condition for being squirreled away for an untold number of years. Also, several boxes/sets of miniatures from Grenadier to boot! Made this fat, old man giggle, it did. Pity I never found a supposed 2nd box of rpg things, but the Mom was veeerrrryyy religious, so I'm assuming it got tossed in the Satanic Panic years at some point.

The rpg nostalgia has made me look at my Traveller items and commenced me to ponderin'...

Anyway, if anyone is in mid-NC close to the SC line and looking to buy old peoples' things this weekend, hit me up in DMs for the details of the sale! TTFN!

Yet even more Jagged Alliance 3 and DCS. Contemplating getting Aliens Dark Descent on sale tonight though.

Has the campaign finally fixed the problem of all the major nations overspending and collapsing after about 5 years in game?

Kept ruining it for me.

Several patches addressed it. Have not played in a while. I hope so. There have been lots of fixes in the last three months. The way nations collapse may have changed, too.

Here's hoping.

My last campaign terminated on June 11 when the British Empire and France both collapsed before 1900.

Just couldn't deal with seeing all of Europe go anarchy and Mad Max in such a short time.

A little bit of both actually.

The people seem nice in this community/game and I'm actually doing well fighting against other humans. I get the impression that most people are used to fast paced shooters whereas I'm ok with taking my time in a WW1 style shootout.

Ironically, when playing against medium difficulty bots I get smoked pretty bad.

I tried Tannenberg with bots years ago and got destroyed every single time
