The new computer is fortunately in a state to carry on, and so we're off. Two hours until dawn!

Nice! Like the side mounted radiator panels.  :bigthumb:

I really didn't want to buy a new machine at this point, but I have to admit that this one is pretty badass. I'd advise people to stay away from ABS brand gaming computers, given my "old" machine was not even three years old when it died on Saturday. Let's hope this one survives longer!

Dawn in ONE HOUR. There are a few of you who I don't believe have sent me orders for the day as of yet. Please do so ASAP.

Also note - if you've been sent orders from a superior, just because I've read what you've been sent please don't assume that I am acting as if you are implementing those orders. If your superior sent your orders saying "March to location A" I'm not just marching your corps off to location A. Please issue orders to your corps providing a marching order, rules of engagement, etc. and send those to me. I have a feeling some commanders may have the impression that they are implementing their superior's orders when they are in fact sitting still...

DAWN. Armies are marching on the stricken field. Or about to be stricken field. Or something.

That turn took a good long while for me to run. Lots going on, and I'm continuing to tweak my TTS setup to make doing this easier.

There are a couple of players that I'm still short orders for. Your corps are sitting idle while I wait to hear from you. That may not lead to an optimum outcome for you...

After a holiday break (and some time to let my scratched cornea recover so I could see the damn game) we're back to a regular schedule. Let's shoot for a next turn Friday.

Hope everyone had a good holiday!

I swear, next game I'm going to adapt "The Eagle Fights" tactical system to Table Top Simulator and have you guys game out the actual battles using that. I bet we could make it work.

Jim is working on setting up some TTS games using Blucher from Sam Mustafa, which is more complicated than The Eagle Fights, but can be played with unit cards as well. Watch for an announcement, but I would think we'll be playing a game on a Saturday evening soon. We stream those to Youtube. No reason we can't do the same thing with The Eagle Fights...

"The Eagle Fights" would work a LOT better in TTS than on the tabletop where the cardboard pieces are a real challenge.

Would you lot PLEASE not distract me from my task(s) at hand!!
