It warms the black ash of my dead heart that The Compleat Strategist is still there.

Always do what you feel is best.

It's awesome to see The Compleat Strategist still thriving! Nothing quite like the excitement of weekend gaming, am I right?

Sorry Johnny. NUTHIN' gets past The ACD Anti-Spam Laser Defense System!    :o  That's not supposed to still be a secret is it?

Back on topic (and whoa, what a concept, right?), I played some Cruel Necessity, the updated version from the VPG game that was published ten years ago.

I did an unboxing comparison between the new and old versions, for the Front Page. :)

Suffice it to say, the new version is certainly several steps up, but I find it lacking in a handful of places.

Since I suddenly find myself having to isolate through Monday -- and not particularly wanting to leave my domicile anyway, given my current condition -- I figure I might as well take advantage and get some good gaming time in this weekend. 


On deck: 

Chaos Galaxy 2
Emperor of the Fading Suns (damn you both -- you know who you are)
Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes
Field of Glory: Empires
The Heroic Legend of Eagarlnia
Knights of Honor II: Sovereign
Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord
Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition
Rome II: Total War (DEI)
Shadow Empire
Stellaris (natch)
Three Kingdoms: Total War



Yes, I already know I won't get to anywhere near all of them.  ::)  Hell, I'll be happy if I play at least a few of them.  But it's good to have goals.  :biggrin:

I'll be starting the Assault '41 dynamic campaign this weekend.

I'm sort of oscillating between Assault '41, playtesting Assault '43, and playing OST II.
