[: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.)

Trying to play another run through of Oblivion when it doesn't decide to lock up.
 
Also on my soon-to-play list is:
 
BfTB
WWII: ToW
CC: TLD
CoH
Achtung Panzer

Whoops I forgot Squad Battles PBEM.

WITP (just got AE.. but haven't got the courage to try yet)
HPS Stalingrad 42
HPS Antietam
Arsenal of Democracy
Kharkov Disaster on the Donets
Rise of Flight (just updated and loadded again this weekend after watching the Red Baron)

when playing with Friends
Battlefield Bad Company 2

Panzer Command series a lot,
Kharkov: Diaster on Donets a little

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.

Storm over the Pacific
TDU (waiting for TDU 2)
Mount & Blade Warband
Alpha Centauri
Eufloria

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
2) Distant Worlds
3) Space Empires V
4) Hegemony: Philip of Macedon
5) Alexander
6) Worldshift

Red Victory
Distant Worlds

Still in the process of learning the games.

Playing Football Manager 2010
The brilliant beta UFO alien invasion
Settlers worlds
Catan PC
MUD TV
Castles 1 + 2
HPS Sealion

Red or dead redemption on Xbox.

Looking at GG war between the states but hate changing screen resolutions so can't even get around the tutorial.
Bought Rome gold but not installed yet.
Eagle day and bombing the reich. Uninstalled since xmas.{gift} I don't think its my thing.
Thinking about deleting Armada 2526 as never,ever play it.

Of course it has alot of scenarios, this is John Tiller's Squad Battles title that covers the ENTIRE Eastern Front from 1943-1945 all the to Berlin.

Advanced Tactics WWII PBEM, (the mods are really good)
Left 4 Dead, ("one"...don't like "two" so much)
Le Havre, (boardgame)

[edit] forgot to add in

RAF (boardgame from Descision Games)

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.

Sabre1,

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.
