HA W8...you can't use 'gay' as an adjective!

Says the guy that likes to play "AssCreed".
"These men do not want a happy ship. They are deeply sick and try to compensate by making me feel miserable. Last week was my birthday. Nobody even said "happy birthday" to me. Someday this tape will be played and then they'll feel sorry."  - Sgt. Pinback

X-Com UFO Defense. The one game to rule them all.

:notworthy:

(You missed out on the hipster points by not referring to it as UFO: Enemy Unknown ;) )
A War of a Madman's Making - a text-based war planning and political survival RPG

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.
- Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian


If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

Hence why Gus has brought us "Asscreedy"

War Thunder.

It's almost the only thing I play. Except for FOG 2 modding. I have lost the desire to buy new games.

Thank you MrsWargamer for recognizing my old school ways.  We never used that term as an attack on someones lifestyle, just as a put down as you mention.   O0

As Gus would say, it was an Asscreedy move.

Been playing Steel Panthers (now Shrapnel's SPWW2 and SPMBT) on and off for nearly a quarter century.  Haven't played it much in 2019 but have my eye on a cool Quang Tri ARVN attack scenario that I noticed for the first time in SPMBT.

You are all gay, in the best possible way.
