Hangdog Hotel FRIDAY

Gordon Lightfoot, 1988. IMHO, this is slightly better than the original 1978 version. It features one of the best lines in Rock Country music: "The kind of test I like the best Is treating the wrong girl right"

As far as gaming? Task Force Admiral and CMO this week for me. Y'all have a good weekend

I will be playing Stalker 2, that I picked up on sale a while ago.

Enjoy the weekend !

AOE IV
COH 3 - A CHAR B1 tank is coming with a french battlegroup attached to the US. LRDG and sturmtigers

Maybe some star citizen.

Sturmtiger? That is relevant to my interests.

Is that expansion out yet?

Playing Strategic Command American Civil War that I got with my Anniversary coupon at Christmas. That and stressing out about the house I bought plus moving (and decluttering). Is it a bad omen that I closed on the house on April Fool's Day?

Actually I own 2 homes now! Have to do major basement repairs before I sell the first one. And get floors refinished in new one before I can move in.

It comes out in a month or so iirc
The game itself is 50% off or something right now.

Terra invicta - capital ships are starting to roll off the line, I have bases on titan and I can get there from earth in 12 weeks thanks to some nifty drive tech - will always love this game - even planning the next

Looking into solar expanse which also looks great

Any chance of you creating a thread to post pics and do something like an AAR. I'm intrigued by the late space game, but feel like it takes so long to get there, that I've been put off from making the attempt.

I need to check a few image hosting sites - all the links I had are closed down since the new UK law and to avoid any confusion they just shut down image hosting

Anything you guys post on here never shows up for me - just a blue square with 'unavailable in the uk' in it

Doesn't look like it. Full price on Steam and aggressive DRM. Not sure this is for me, Sturmtiger or not.

I must have been thinking of AOEIV... I could have sworn COH3 was as well. Aggressive DRM, yeah I think so.

When you get bored of the base game try out my mod! It's a brand new game!

Looks like a lot of good stuff in there (especially the slower game). Downloaded!
