Yah... won't be tonight...

I've got to head off to work my graveyard as shift auditor for the campus network here at IU.

I'll take my flashdrive along so I can download the patch though.... when it gets posted TONIGHT... at MIDNIGHT!

And then I can play a game tomorrow while watching election returns!

I just got it last week so I have been playing around with it.... Checkin out the editor
but I have not begun a full game until the patch comes out. I dont wanna get all the way to 1944 and discover all my leaders have morphed into Japanese sub lieutenants.

I will say however from what I have played with.....I love it [&o][&o][&o]

A good game addiction is a terrible thing to waste [:(]

Maybe we need a thread for predictions of the number of downloads within the first hour of availability?

"Captain Kid, we'rre putting out 3 terrrabytes per second, she canna handle that for much morre."

Scotty is currently a good customer of William Shatner's provider of fine "Gridles for Men", although he has to make do with the supporting man support...

There was a funny video about someone that stole William Shatner's hair piece, the results of using it and the big fight between the 2 over Will's attempt to recover. This all resulted in a poor experience during a fan show. [cues up Star Trek fight music]

Stopped my game because the Leader Leak was quickly becoming a flood. (I think a third of my subs have unrated WO's commanding them now.) Am off playing Evil Genius and conquoring the world that way.

Rome:TW, Forgotten Battles, Matrix Online Beta :-)

Yea, I would have to agree. Ready to start a new game but am waiting for the.... well you know what. Meanwhile, retooling old games on the harddrive.

But as soon as "patchly" possible

I am holding off starting PBEM while I wait for the 1.3 patch. In the meantime, I am finishing my UV PBEM with Nessaya. We are in September 1943 and have less than 100 turns to go. We could be the first PBEM to go the entire distance, and right now I still hold a lead in victory points (I am playing Japan) but it will be a near run thing.

One thing about it, though. Since this is the second game of UV that we have played together, and this one has pretty much went the distance, then we have each established that we can stay with the game in the long run. I feel that is crucial considering how long it will take to play WITP. I know that I am grateful to have such a reliable opponent.

Out of interest - how is Rome: Total War? Any good?

Yep. Been waiting for many weeks.

My game slowly fell to pieces.

- Several brigades dissapearing into the ether
- American bases with Oscars in them
- American bases attached to Russian HQ's.....

Hope the patch can unscramble most of these problems without restarting my campaigns!

The title says it all. List yourselves.

I'm continuing with my sole PBEM game. But my hotseat game with my son is on hold as all AI games. But then again, most of WitP time is about at an end. Only my PBEm game will survive. I actually have a life outside of WitP.
