Happy birthday Mike! I hope you have some great gaming and great scotch!


I actually don't really like games.

Thanks! It was great fun. Even managed to sneak in a tutorial game of Command and Colors Tricorne.

Don't know what I'll be playing this weekend but it won't be Pillars of Eternity 2 cause I finished that sucker. 204 Hours and you get to see this....

Yes, great game but I was definitely ready for it to be over. The ending was fun but a little disappointing as it felt like my character really was just there,  and not taking part in the endgame. Probably not accurate because I'm sure the choices in the game I made had an effect on the ending, including the choices I made in the end, but it felt like the choices made no real difference. Can't say more without spoiling things. Anyway, yes worth the long haul for sure.  :applause:

I have an ASL game scheduled tomorrow.  I've never played this scenario, which is set is set in bocage country a week after D day.  All German units are hidden at start.  I'm the Americans.

I’ve spent half my life’s earning on wargames, women, and drink. The rest I wasted.

It has a solo system (Star Wars: Rebellion) that I've been wanting to try.

All the recent Crusader Kings 3 talk has me getting (back) into CK2.  I didn't realize how much I'd forgotten, but I'm also realizing/remembering how much fun this game can be.
