Cat's in the FRIDAY

Wish you a speedy recovery Mr. Tuna.

Have a charity MS walk this weekend and the oldest boy is moving out tomorrow, and the weather is nice so the yard is calling. Had a gaming slump for a bit but that seems to be over. Will be tending to my PBEM games with a renewed enthusiasm.

Just started a Guns of August in TOAW4, lost everyone of my WW1 pbem games so far, hope to change that.

Playing Alesia as the Romans in FOG2, the Gauls just reached the walls.

AOW3 playing as the Dwarfs, haven't run into my pbem opponent yet, but the independents are giving my trouble. Lost my army twice already, man i suck at this game.

SCGC- playing as the Allies, taking it on the chin from the Japanese as they keep taking islands but there not moving against the Chinese. Nov 41 and i'm giving him a tough time in Russia, squirreled away 4 level 2 tank units and a couple of armies and kept them south of Moscow and hit him in the flank when he moved on Moscow bagged a HQ and an army. Battle of the Atlantic is still up in the air at this point, U-boats everywhere it seems.

SCWW2- Playing the Allies, June 44. I surprised him and landed in Europe in 43 to take the pressure off the Russians. One hex away from Paris and the Russian hordes are about 10 hexes from Warsaw, he done a good job of slowing me down but the Italians are about to fold and Yugoslavia just got liberated. This is a first run through for both of us, plenty of mistakes, but its been a lot of fun.

Playing Germans in a Panzer Korps scenario, getting creamed, money is running out with just 4 turns left and i'm 2 hexes from the map edge.....don't think i'll make the 4 turns.

For solo play i seem to be in an RPG mood, got 3 of them going.

Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition

Neverwinter Nights 2

And after reading Airboys excellent write up i purchased Underrail and i'm a couple of hours in and enjoying it.

Enjoy your weekend everyone.

Tuna I also wish you a speedy recovery. The upside may be that you are home when I am!

It's going to be mostly Dawn of Andromeda for me. I am playing the second scenario as the Humans.

Probably playing around with some other games as well.

Have a great weekend guys.

Well my plans have changed a little. Still yard work and youth soccer but also managed to snag a whole pork belly from work yesterday so will be roasting half and smoking half.

No, one. Don't know how the heck people can do two at the same time! You'd think you would one good leg while rehabbing the other. I don't know how long I'll wait to do the other.

Hope you are doing better! Don't wait too long on that other one. My dad did and it was a huge mistake.

Hey JD
The donation page is here https://www.nationalmssociety.org/Donate I have personal connection with this cause and we turn in our donations in person before the walk.

As far as my gaming habits, well my gaming HDAD forces me to play a wide variety of games.Besides how else would i justify to myself my seemly endless appetite to buy games i in no way need, to add to my gaming queue long enough for two lifetimes.
