Everyone must be wargaming :)

Post by MrsWargamer »

Sure is quiet in here :)

So what game are you busy playing.

I'm currently binging on 72nd scale models, a lot of Airfix classics. Today it's an Opel Blitz and a PaK 40 anti-tank gun set.

Still not entirely sold on Vassal regardless of how convenient it is.
I still prefer to push physical pieces, much like I prefer to own physical books, hardcover if possible.
Sometimes digital is too much like 'self-love' acceptable, but not what you really wanted.
Wargame, 05% of the time.
Play with Barbies 05% of the time.
Play with Legos 10% of the time.
Build models 20% of the time
Shopping 60% of the time.
Exlains why I buy em more than I play em.

One more turn of Civ4 Beyond the Sword reinforced with Caveman2Cosmos mod.
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

I currently play World in Flames, the Matrix version, and Bombing the Reich. Although I defend the Reich rather than bombing it.

Been so tired lately that I haven't had either time nor energy to post. [:(]

So... umm Zak. What's what? [;)]
I've been playing a lot of baseball games lately.
OOTP 21 - Started a Mets historical team beginning in 1977 hoping to avoid the lean years that followed.
OOTP 21 Perfect Team - Running my three free to play teams in Silver & Gold promotion and relegation cycles LOL.
Pennant Chase - Running teams from the '70s, '80s, '90s, 2000's, 2010's and '70' to present. It's interesting but moves a bit slow, three games a day. www.pennantchase.com if anyone wants to check it out.
Civil War II, FOG-Empires & WITPAE get my wargaming time on the weekends.

Try Empyrion. It's Wurm in space. I've had this one for years and it keeps getting better and better.

Hey PK,

Glad you've found a baseball game you enjoy. Just my opinion, but I must have paid $5 for Baseball Mogul 2015 on Steam and it appears to be a cut above what I saw on the DK page for $40+. Complete "commissioner" mode editing options, real players from all eras, and like DK, not crazy complex like Out of the Park Baseball.

Might be a consideration if you're looking to add to your collection.

Thanks for the post!
