The Emepror of Vietnam opens gaming for the weekend!

MetalDog · March 22, 2013, 05:55:03 AM

It's going to be Warlock and Civ IV BTS this weekend. A buddy of mine is trying to talk me in to SimCity 4 as well. We'll see what the old wallet holds if SimCity gets purchased and played.

Is this like a Friday thread in disguise? ;)

Going out of town for work, but before I leave I will spend more time with the Legendary Heroes beta.

Uncle Ho sez I pray:

Dom3

War Thunder (new update!) if I feel like shooting at others. MTG2013 for some more laid back card play?

Perhaps I'll try out the Tropico 4 Complete set I got last week, or one of the other myriad games I've not touched. :P

Yes. I've been trying to tie the thread title into historical events that happened on the same day I started the thread. I've just added, "this Friday," to the rest of them. One hundred years ago today, the French arrested the self proclaimed Emperor of Vietnam. The other choice was a a massacre of a Russian village by the Germans in WWII. Wasn't feeling the proper level of evil to promote that event in a thread title.

Oh, and I meant to ask you how you were enjoying marh of Eagles? I asked one of your sons on Steam last night and I think I scared him. He said, "This isn't tuna," and bailed ASAP!

~~Warlock MP.~~ **EDIT - too bad Gus**
SimCity - yes it's fun.
Heroes of Stalingrad - we're getting a new build at least once a week, sometimes twice. 8)
Home Reno - need to finish this as the end game Boss is getting restless about my incomplete objectives.....
Hill 218 - mobile card game - seems pretty light
Strategy & Tactics: WWII - mobile war game - free version is interesting but $7 is a bit steep for this light a game for the full version.

Mark of the Ninja and maybe starting a new Fall of the Samurai campaign. Maybe a new Civ V campaign too.

Metaldog - The Wife has commandeered me for Saturday night so I can't make it t Warlock MP, my apologies.

steve58 · March 22, 2013, 07:35:31 AM

Since the wife is out of town for the weekend the sky is the limit for me.

Kerbal Space Program (to check out the new 0.19.1 version)
Cities XL Platinum (finally picked this up to scratch my city builder itch and SimCity was out of bounds due to DRM)
StarDrive
Rawbots (if I get really ambitious)

TheCommandTent · March 22, 2013, 07:38:56 AM

With all the March Madness basketball on and work I am not sure how much gaming I'll get in. If I do it will be Far Cry 3 and StarCraft II, perhaps even some boardgaming.

LOL well since my computer was put away, they've been the ones online when my account's logged in. Not sure why they would log in for March of Eagles, you can play that without Steam.. I like it, but it is kind of 'simple' so not sure how long it will keep my attention, I hope EU4 uses some of it's format for battles though, a lil more detailed than the usual EU3/CK2 etc, being able to setup your lines.

They've both been on a Civ V kick lately.. Craig also downloaded Caveman to Cosmos for Civ IV... funny they have worse Game ADD than I.. but Craig definitely has been on a Major Paradox kick last few months..

I've got my PC setup down cellar with an wireless adapter, so hope to get some gaming in this weekend! Can't wait for this construction to be over, so I can get my self set back up wired and with TV (Need TV or something when playing Warlock with MD, so you can do something during turns ;D )!

jomni · March 22, 2013, 09:35:18 AM

Just started flying FSX in VATSIM.

Bison · March 22, 2013, 09:38:49 AM

Battle Academy and trying to figure out MMP's South Mountain.

I'm mostly just glad that Gus is getting boarded this weekend by his wife. Plunder the pirate's treasure and all that, matey.

WallysWorld · March 22, 2013, 09:56:47 AM

Just started the first scenario of the Soviet Invasion campaign of Combat Mission: Afghanistan. I think this is my favorite version of CM.
Fly a flight or two in FSX or FS2004 for the virtual airline I belong to.
Trying out the demos again for the Theatre of War games.

Sir Slash · March 22, 2013, 09:57:59 AM

Greetings to all Vietnamese royality. Steam and Iron with the new 1.50 patch to work on my tactics before the campaign comes out in a couple of days now. And teaching the Shogun the futility of resisting the Emperor and his Warrior class ironclad in FOTS.

MetalDog · March 22, 2013, 10:23:38 AM

@Gus: Good on ya', man! You realize that you'll have to bow to pressure and set up a time during the week to have an extended session, or agree to several nights in a weeks time to make up for it ;)

@Tuna: Just cuz I'm involved with one Warlock MP doesn't mean I am exclusive :) And if you're singing the, "takes too long," song, then I guess it's me. But what I want to know from all of my opponents is, what the hell are you doing to go so fast?!
