Ain't No FRIDAY!

HoodedHorseJoe · April 13, 2018, 11:28:58 AM

I love the work that's been done on Sins of the Prophet. It keeps the Halo universe alive for me in a way that the current mainline games aren't.

I've got friends staying the weekend, so I'm actually going to be table-top-ing again: Pengragon: The Fall of Roman Britain and Quartermaster General 1914 mainly.

I've also rediscovered my love for Men of War: Assault Squad 2. I might check out some of the mods for it - the Cold War one is supposed to be good.

Sins of a Solar empire is being revisited by our group at the moment. Amazing game to play every now and then. Just very relaxing really.

PS - When I saw the title of the Friday thread, I got so excited thinking you were going to post this...

These guys are phenomenal live!

I'm coaching my daughter's U14 soccer team this season so I had to fire up FM 17. I'll be playing OOTP 19 as well. Because...baseball!
I'm also lurking the Battletech RPG thread.

I've got to tell you...I've seen them 3 times over the last 15 years and their shows, although still good, are not what they were like in the 80s and 90s. Perry without drugs is just too calm and normal. I'm so grateful they are still around, living healthy lifestyles and making great music, but their shows just aren't as exciting.

Planed on playing Endless Space 2 then Gal Civ III Intrigue came out so that is going to be my focus (and it is looking good from my initial very brief impressions) but now someone has gone and mentioned Sins of a Solar Empire so that may get a look in as well.

My mom grew up with Perry Farrell and his family. She said he was 'always a weird kid but very sweet.'

mirth · April 13, 2018, 12:16:42 PM

You sure she wasn't talking about you?

Gusington · April 13, 2018, 12:20:28 PM

Rarely that kind 😢

Well.. I am off as of now.

Paid Time Off for the weekend (had a few days figured why not?)

So I am currently in my game of Neverwinter Nights.(Chapter 2)

Thinking on giving the CK II DLCs a spin, see what cooks up.

I have Talisman on my tablet (Free on Google play this weekend!) so I grabbed it.

But I am glad to be home, it is a mess out there. Wind and rain and cold.

Sir Slash · April 13, 2018, 01:32:36 PM

I loved Neverwinter Nights.

My new rig arrives early next week. I pulled the hard drive from the dead system.

I'm grading, cleaning house and perhaps finish a tabletop game so we can clean that room.

I played some Civilization III, IV and VI this week (one diplomatic victory in CIV IV and one cultural Victory in CIV VI). I enjoyed them all, even if i find the end-game in Civilization VI less interesting. I think i'll a new game but not sure with which one.

Going to play Dawn of Andromeda and once i finish it, going to launch either GalCiv 2 or GalCiv 3

Also played a few turn of my old Romulan campaign in Birth of the Federation...Sol is going to fall soon and the last Cardassian colonies are soo history....soon, i'll be able to focus on my last real opponent...the Ferengi....

Busy weekend!

Finally will get back home after two depressing weeks in Pensacola. Doubt I'll play anything but I might check out the GalCivIII DLC. The good news is it'll be a lot warmer than it was when I left. 8)

Welcome back, bbmike. Hope things are going alright for you.

Version 2.2 of the fantastic Star Wars mod Thrawn's Revenge: Imperial Civil War was just released yesterday. Check it out. I also enjoy the Halo mod, Sins of the Prophets.

As far as my weekend, gaming will be limited. Heading off for a week in Texas so will be busy packing and straitening up, etc.

If I play anything, it will most likely be ARMA 3 Tanks DLC, Star Citizen 3.1.1, House of a Dying Sun, Synthetik and some VR gaming too...

Everybody enjoy!

PS - When I saw the title of the Friday thread, I got so excited thinking you were going to post this...

Is Star Wars mod Thrawn's Revenge: Imperial Civil War actually Star Wars mod Thrawn's Revenge: Ascendancy?
While I am here, has anybody played empire at war multiplayer lately? I read that multiplayer, which was discontinued when it went to steam, has been re-enabled?

P.s. I love the song not an addict by janes addiction, but always though it was a female singer....

So of course you post about a new expansion for Gal Civ III makes me think, "Hey maybe Crusade is on sale since something new came out". Of course when I go to look, I already own it.

Such is the life of a groghead.
