I'll be doing the usual PBEM thing, not sure what else been kind of in a gaming slump besides my pbem. There is some early spring cleaning on the docket, took a load to goodwill last weekend and probably another this weekend.
My pbem games:
SCWW1- Only 4 turns left in the Russian civil war scenario. I've been getting kicked around as the Bolsheviks for most of the game, retreating on interior lines. The good news is Moscow and Petrograd haven't really been threatened but Poland is making there play with the Whites so we'll see.
SCWW2- Russia DOW on Germany in May 41 really threw my opponent off his schedule. It's August 42 and were trading body blows in the east, he wont get Moscow or Leningrad. I've slowly getting control of the Atlantic with RN, one sub kia at a time. The Med is pretty much under control with the Italians pretty much keeping their ships in port. I've started to push in NA against the DAK, slowly, not sure if i'll bring the Americans to NA, might go straight to the continent. Been getting the American war machine cranked up, thought about landing in Spain, but been putting diplomatic pressure[chits] on Spain and they've swung our way so the only way to land would be DOW on Spain. With me attriting his forces in the east and NA he hasn't been able to do much research or diplomatic stuff as he has to keep reinforcing in the east and NA.
SCGC- just started this one, with me as the Allies only one turn in. Poland will fall of course and the Japanese are pushing in China, not much else yet.
CMRT- Just started a new CM Red Thunder medium sized meeting engagement scenario. It's at dusk so the LOS is restricted, map is farmland with some trees. With the point buy scenarios you just never know what someone will bring to the party. 3 turns in, no contact.
Concealed Intent- Finished 2 MP games, not sure if we'll continue there some limiting factors in this game. You can't view the last turn replay.....its not in the game currently, so sometimes you just don't get to see the ending outcome but just a message whether you won or lost. Another thing is...well its only one ship vs one ship, all you get to pick is ship type and map type for MP, and there no full game video replay like other games that have the same mechanics.....Frozen synapse comes to mind. Its got some interesting mechanics and potential but its a one man show and the patch is long over due. The dev did respond to my post and maybe April to patch in the last turn replay and full game replays just depends on his work schedule.....hey we all got to make a living. The SP side looks well done so ill give that a spin but the MP is lacking.
have a good weekend everyone and good gaming.
