Its ten to FRIDAY moving fast

[JasonPratt]

Unknown what my schedule with the Bro is this weekend, starting after work today, which will affect my gaming. Should still be fun, though.

[Dammit Carl!]

Not sure what I'll do, but I've been spending time on Day of Infamy a bit, so I'll keep on trucking there. See if I can wrangle the Iron Front mod for Arma 3 too.

[Nefaro]

Think it's about BRRRRRRRT time with the A-10C.








... mixed with the occasional SEAD in a Su-25T.

^That gif moistens my loins.

I will be playing Soviet Corps for sure and perhaps some Battle Academy 2, Sniper Elite III and Hearts of Iron IV.

Wonder what kind of truck JH is getting...

...BC when I was in the UK in 2003 I watched a Beefeater at the Tower of London almost have an aneurysm because a ten year old kid was wearing an Arsenal jersey. 15 seconds later another Beefeater came over to the same kid and pat him on the head and say 'good lad.'

So...be careful what you purchase :)

Wonder what kind of truck JH is getting...

Just another Durango. Nothing too crazy. Comes with no stock weaponry.

[Father Ted]

Don't go to the wrong place with the wrong one!!

True. *If* I buy one, it'll probably be one of the Celtic FC ones, at the airport, on my way out of the country. Unless you have a better suggestion...?

I've learned there are two things you do not discuss with locals - one is politics, the other is football.

Well, they're slightly inter-twined in Glasgow.

[Gusington]

No stock weaponry?? Not even a flamethrower?

[Gusington]

By the way I just tried out Hearts of Iron IV for a few minutes and my head exploded. Damn is there a lot of stuff to do. And that's just the tutorial :/

[Cyrano]

There's your accessible Paradox game for you...

[Gusington]

Yeah I was waiting for some guidance...maybe a pop window...it never came.

[Gusington]

Another set of gaming oddities: so I played the Winter War scenario in Soviet Corps last night, captured more than one objective, and lost, after the game intro told me that all I needed to win was to capture just one objective, any objective.

Then this evening I played the Soviet Invasion of Poland scenario and after only capturing 3 of 6 listed objectives, I was handed a Soviet Victory.

Has anyone played Soviet Corps lately and run into these "bugs"? I can't explain it any other way unless I won the 2nd scenario by destroying a certain amount of units - but that was never put forward as an objective...

I'm on a Pillars of Eternity binge where I think I'm at the final stage of the White March. And, damn is it tough! But fun. Here's a screenie of probably the worst water outside of Flint, Mich.  :wow:

[Ubercat]

Hey now, Flint is my home town!

Got out in '86. Only gone back a handful of times since ...

[Nefaro]

Did some multi-player, including SEAD in the Su-25T, on Friday.

Eventually scored a few SAMs in the smoky target area seen through the front left windscreen.  Then a grunt with a MANPAD managed to shoot me down when I got closer to scan for other targets.  Forgot to turn on the IR Jammer.   #:-)

Was doing poorly in fighters until a Saturday afternoon flight.  Then it turned around with two Mirage kills in a row (in the Su-27  ) and a successful RTB from the missile-rich hot zone.  Damn fun but I'm pretty rusty on my BVR jousting, even after only a few months of being away.  Especially when there is SPAMRAAM coming at me. 

[Sir Slash]

Sorry Ubercat. I should've said "Flint, Mich. The town with bad water but great people"? BTW The water's not too great where I live either.  #:-)
