Everybody's gone to war, it must be FRIDAY

My garden may be smaller than your Rome, but my pilum is harder than your sternum 

Asterix in Britain ?

Indeed it is  :)

[Sir Slash]

Great to have you back amongst the Groginationists, Dredd. What is this 'free-day' of which you speak?

I'm writing emails to various gaming companies customer service to get replacement parts and rant about the lack of quality control over their products.  Basically I'm playing a Ralph Nader sim.

Ugh.  That blows.

Well..I have Saturday off today, working Sunday morning.

I have been playing Kingdom Rush on my tablet,  ::)  I wish there was something like MOO for tablet.

Still at Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom.

My Polaris Sector game is going well.

I've been playing Order of Battle WW2 - The US Campaign in the Pacific (not the Marine campaign).

The AI has been really good.  The Bataan scenario was quite challenging.  Then the Nips beat me in the Coral Sea.  I sank two carriers (including a fleet carrier) with no carrier losses!  But the AI Japs pressed home the attack on Port Morsby and captured it (which they probably should have done in reality).

Although saddened by the loss, I'm really quite impressed with the Naval AI of the Japanese.  Trying to find their carriers, trying to keep them from finding my carriers, taking care of Tuglai is a hard balancing act.

I think I know what I did wrong.  But winning even after losing is not going to be easy.

Wife not home this weekend, sooo playing much more
Graviteam mius front, i have to learn more.
command ops 2
pbem on combat mission fb

Im not sure but I shall buy something from steam maybe afghanistan 11, battle brothers or day of infamy.

  Graviteam -- maybe, and some CMANO -- trying to simulate the Houthis (Shia in Western Yemen who wiped out Al-Qaeda there and are now getting bombed by the Saudis) reported techniques of using drones to knock out Saudi Patriot radars and then hit Saudi ships or airfields with other missiles or drone boat bombs.
And maybe some Heroes and Generals

  The game makes it pretty hard to do Houthiesque things.  Drones can't be flown right into their targets and anyway the Patriot shoots down the drone.  On the other hand the Saudis will shoot exocets at aerostats (which doesn't seem to work on the terminal segment)...so that's interesting.

I replayed the Coral Sea battle and managed to win.  One (of three) Yorktown class carriers were sunk.  My other two fleet carriers were lightly damaged by subs.  But I managed to sink the Port Morsby invasion fleet this time, sank the Jap baby flattop and also managed to sink both Jap Fleet Carriers!

I sank the second Fleet carrier on the next to last turn of the scenario.  I managed to sneak in a sub past the screen, and torpedo the carrier for some damage.  Then my SBDs finished it off.  I did not find the carrier until 5 turns were left in the scenario although I had suspicions where it was based on where the Jap planes were coming from.

I lost a couple of destroyers.  More destroyers were damaged.  One Heavy Cruiser just avoided being sunk.  I did not lose any air squadrons, but almost all of them got shot up badly (especially the F4Fs).

Spent most of my day working on a new CMANO scenario. Also put some time into Afghanistan '11 and The Division which I picked up on sale. I want to like Afghan '11, and there are parts of it I do, but overall I think its the first Matrix game I feel I wasted my money on. Not to far into The Division. Picked it up mainly for the change of scenery from World of Warcraft. Tomorrow I'll probably split my time between more CMANO, The Division and Ghost Recon.

Just curious...what game were you playing?

From an early post assuming Order of Battle WW2 - The US Campaign in the Pacific.
