Wait? What? No Friday thread yet - where's MetalDog when you need him?

I'm actually taking the weekend off from work.

I'm going to continue to not play Rome 2. Not really sure what I'm going to be playing. After losing interest in my current Austria game last night, I need a small break from EU IV. Probably start new campaigns in both CK2 and Distant Worlds. Other then that almost everything on my steam list is on the table for this weekend. And of course a shit ton of football on Sunday. Go GREEN BAY!

Sorry, fellas.  I was busy, uh, getting busy until late into the night.

That's not excuse for not waking up early and starting the Friday thread.

I've been playing lots of Xcom.  Its the perfect baby/daddy game.  Move a guy, clean up puke, move a guy, clean up poop, move a guy, burp...  :)

Amen Brother!

Rome II and some FSX with Air Hauler when I get the chance.  Busy weekend with the Guard.  A local Marine reserve unit is deploying and my unit is tasked with taking care of their legal. Going to be writing a lot of wills over the next two days.

Rome 2 and Splinter Cell: Blacklist.  Go Blue.

In a real slump as far at PC gaming goes....... :-\

Will do some board gaming... should really continue my DAR...  :P

More work on the VASSAL mods I'm working on... this will use most of my free time.

I'm just scrolling through this thread so apologies if you're asked this later on but what modules are you working on? 

I just received "The Supreme Commander" in the mail today. Going to sort through the rules and hopefully get a small solo game of it going.

Also sorting through the rules for "Force on Force".  Made some changes to the reaction tests.  I think that I have it tweaked just right.

More XCOM for me. No baby here but we do have 2 very bad puppies so for me it is ...move guy, clean up broken vase, shoot alien, yell at puppies to stop barking, and so on!

A bunch of stuff from LnL Publishing. Finally updating the Lock'nLoad Series, adding stuff to the Nations at War Series, maybe taking on the World at War series update.
Maybe others for them. Kind of a long term partnership.

Maybe not, but, it sure was worth it :)

[-budd-]

don't really have the attention span for anything deep at this time. Will be finishing Sang Froid [think i have 4 days left] and playing some Hotline Miami  and maybe burn some music while playing audio surf, and a whole lot of NFL on Sunday, Game on the TV and redzone on the laptop.

As Russell Wilson would say "Go Hawks"

Au contraire!  One should never have to apologize for getting laid.  8)

Rome 2 all day everyday this weekend in my mind.

  Yep.  Lots of Rome II.  I also read up on 18th century naval warfare for some board gaming.  Here's the thing: all games concentrate on
the Napoleonic period because it is well-documented.

   BUT it looks to me like the time for more interesting battles was the long period of amazing foul-ups from say 1690 to 1782. 

   After puzzling over how to simulate foul-ups ( I gave up), it seemed that since ships of say 1744 were in many ways much simpler than ships of say 1794, I could work on 1744-style ships for Close Action and -- while not producing the foul-up per se...I could reproduce the confused fighting (usually around the flag ships) in Close action terms using generic 60s 70s 80s and 90s and 114s (all with relatively easy-to-simulate batteries of homogenous and relatively crappy "long guns").

   So that's the current board game project.
