I'm going on a 10 hour deep sea fishing trip in the Gulf of Mexico.  Hope all of you enjoy your gaming!

Fun! Post some pics of what you catch :)
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

I will take my A-10 out for a spin and then some Gnomoria.

I've only given it a 10 minute spin thus far, but it's up soon on my "To Do" icon list on my desktop.  :D

I have a wargames pal staying over this weekend, so we plan to get some Conflict of Heroes firefights done.

I'll be doing my usual dailies in World of WarCraft and World of Tanks, play a few hours of EVE Online with some friends, solo play some Warlock: Master of the Arcane and Civilization V. I may play a few oldies to fill out my time.
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

Between Liam's soccer and demoing the deck I'll be playing LOTR Online and nursing my pretty hands.  :'(

A lot of Thief 3. Eight years on and it's still one of my favorite games ever. I am hoping that Dishonored takes up some of the slack when it's released.

CK2: Third try as Count of Breifne.  I have claims, but not enough soldiers.  It seems like there is never enough money to go around.  And people keep dying on me.

Bison, is DDO free to play?  I always see you playing it.

Yes, DDO has been free-to-play for quite awhile. 

The reason it didn't do so well for an MMO, after it came out, was because you used to be pretty much forced to group up to do the quests after a short time into the game. 

They've since done a couple things to make it more solo-friendly last I saw, but the biggest is adding AI mercs you can hire to fill out a party with.  But I believe those generally cost some small amount of real money in the shop as cost.  Still, you won't need to do so for a little while into the game and you get some free mercs on a new character anyway.  ;)

The game really is quite different than the usual MMO "Kill 10 Bazonga Beetles and return to me" stuff, and keeps a fair amount of the 3rd Edition D&D rules at it's core.  8)  For that reason, I always plan to return and play some more (damn yous, time!).

You know it brother!  Its a great Dungeons and Dragons game.

I am working part of the weekend.  The other part will be step and some friends house who enjoy boardgames so that should be fun.  I might try and get some CMFI if I have the time.

Finally starting up Napoleon Total War. I might also play something a bit more 'shoot people in the head', too. Oh, and I've got the War of the Roses Beta installed.

Board game wise, it's less playing and more culling. I have WAAAYYYY too much stuff that never gets played and it's time to send it off for store credit to buy more stuff. it's the circle of board game life. Sent off one big box a couple weeks back, and I'll probably have another packed up for Monday.

Somehow I've gotten off on a Third Age Total War mod for M2TW detour and can only think about ways to quickly develope heavy infantry before I'm up to my ass in orcs and should I even try to take-on Mordor or just hide from them and hope they don't find me. Where's that damned ring when I need it.

I now have three Counties and I am Duke of Connacht.  My wife and I had three daughters.  The eldest married a Portugese Prince who agreed that issue will be Matrilineal.  They propmtly went out and had a son.  I married the second off to the King of Scotland (almost sent the proposal to the King of England.  Good thing I didn't though.  Norway gobbled him up :-).  Less than a year in, Andrew I died in an accident.  Number 2 married the Duke of Moray.  The youngest is still being tutored.
