Been playing FTL almost the entire weekend. Fun, fun, fun. [:)]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FTL:_Fast ... ed_Edition

It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere,
I'm all alone, more or less.
Let me fly, far away from here,
Fun, fun, fun, In the sun, sun, sun.

I want to lie, shipwrecked and comatose,
Drinking fresh, mango juice,
Goldfish shoals, nibbling at my toes,
Fun, fun, fun, In the sun, sun, sun,
Fun, fun, fun, In the sun, sun, sun.

I'll pack my bags and head into hyperspace
Velocity at time-warp speed
Spend my days in ultraviolet rays
Fun, fun, fun, In the sun, sun, sun.

We'll lock on course straight through the universe
You and me and the galaxy
Reach the stage where hyper-drive's engaged
Fun, fun, fun, In the sun, sun, sun,
Fun, fun, fun, In the sun, sun, sun.

FTL is available on GOG as well as on Steam.

Although waiting for a sale seems like a good idea.

In the non-wargaming sphere, I'm kinda hooked on Heroes of the Storm (Blizzard's MOBA). It's one of those games you can play for casual fun, or try to be really competitive. There is so much variety between all the different characters and maps, you always feel like you are learning and getting better.

I also just purchased Strategic Command 3 and I'm really digging it. I already have more than a couple games covering this sort of thing, but SC3 is the ideal mix of complexity and fun. There is enough going on that it does feel like you need some real strategy to win, but at the same time it's very user friendly. Research, diplomacy, production is all there, but streamlined so you can easily pick what you want and get to the strategy. It also looks much nicer than the previous version, all the roughness has been smoothed out of the visuals.

Midway Arcade Treasures: Deluxe Edition just arrived today! It has 28 (said in the box) or 29 (said in the installer) arcade games. I installed the set and it works well enough on my Windows 7 and PlayStation style Trust game pad (has plugs for USB and PS3). I played Wizard of Wor and TOTAL CARNAGE! That's it for now.
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.

This week I have been obsessed with Phantasy Star II, part of this collection. I have read Mega Drive original used to come with maps and game guide, but no such things with Steam release. Google helped me to find what I need, and so playing the game isn't just banging my head against the monitor.

New game: Lords of Waterdeep. It's a builder game where you place your tokens on things and then do them. Pretty good. Then some Gremlin's Inc and Mount and Blade Viking Conquest. Recently dowloaded Lord of the Rings: The Third Age for it.

All these are getting boring though save for Waterdeep. It's still new. Looking for that Barbarossa game like Avalon Hills Stalingrad though.

By now I have played this game maybe more than either Crysis or Mass Effect. Sign of a good game?

Been messing around with Stellaris, try out the Star Trek New Horizon Mod. It is interesting setup they have there.

Every so often I get this hard to control urge to set up the board game The Longest Day by AH. 5x5.5 feet of pure fun.

Anyone visiting me would likely respond with "no boyfriends lately eh" if seeing it underway

I'm currently playing:

- VGA Planets on PlanetsNu http://planets.nu/#/start

- Fighting Flattops http://www.fightingflattops.com

- Master of Orion

- Distant Worlds: Universe

- Flat Top (Avalon Hill)

I wish VGA Planets had a download version to purchase and play. This is a cool game, just don't always want to play in a browser. It's much different than other space games too, so I don't know of a good comparison to buy, does anybody else? [&:]
