[:D] How in the world can someone be currently playing 1/2 dozen games or more? All of them in a day-or spread throughout the week? 2 different games nearly everyday? That is impressive-I guess.[;)]

Well, all my wargames I only play PBEM, So in order to not get bored to death I have to have like 10 games going, then of course Counter Strike Source and Left 4 Dead 2 with friends from school. WinSPMBT and Empires of Steel are the only games I play AI. Even that depends on my mood.

HPS American Civil War series occupies most of my time.

Will revisit HPS Musket & Pike: Renaissance soon.

Eagerly awaiting the release of Matrix JTCS Modern Wars later this year (presumably). Also the Matrix TOAW 3.4 patch, due any month now.

Looking forward to Paradox' Magna Mundi (the Game), scheduled for 2011 release.

That just about covers it. (Recently uninstalled several disappointing and dead-end games. Will not name any names in order to protect the guilty.)

I've been playing this old game from Paradox I just discovered, Victoria.  I know Victoria 2 is coming out soon, but I got thr whole game for $16 or so and have been playing it.  I love uniting Germany.

In order ,

1) BOA2 , replaying F&I war monster

2) Horse ‘n Musket , I find the tactical engine with its replay-level the most enjoyable of any titles available covering the time period…….. (believe me I’ve tried them all and have the coasters to prove it)

3) Tiller's Campaign Series, The one and only WWII game left on my HD, great stuff, never get tired of this classic………. ( well the only one till CC2 hits Matrix buy it now)

4) Red Dead Redemption , purely for Therapeutic purposes …………(cheaper then anger management )

1. Armada 2526 - bought it on a bit of a whim a few weeks ago and been playing 10-20 turns (about 30 mins play time at a sitting) a day since. Highly recommend if you have any interest in Space 4Xs.

2. Air Strike Eagles of WW2 - playing on and off 1-4 missions at a time since I got it a few weeks ago, although I'm not too good at it, it only took a glance a the manual and about 10 mins playing to figure out all the controls so it provides something a bit different when I'm not playing Armada.

3. Starting to digest the manual and play Uncommon Valour - in preparation to playing WitP:AE which has been sitting menacingly on my shelf (and hard drive) for the last 6 months.

Looks very deep and detailed, but accessible if you have played JTCS here from Matrix. I haven't started the campaign yet, I'm working through the bootcamp scenarios and learning the nuances of those. The tutorial is a little weak, and leaves a lot for you to discover, but it does get you going in the right direction. Bottom line games runs as advertised. If you are interested in the subject area its a winner.
