PSA: Game Discounts

[Habbaku]

Syt, did you ever play any of the Decisive Campaigns series? I've enjoyed them all, but have precious few people to PBEM against. 

[The Minsky Moment]

I've been eyeing Last Train, any reports on gameplay?

I've never really broken into them. They seem ... big and clunky? Though I guess that Ardennes is most accessible (Steam says I have 13 minutes in it. I have 5 hours in Warsaw to Paris - much of that doing the tutorial two or three times, similar for Barbarossa )

[Habbaku]

They are big, to be sure, but I've not found them all that clunky! The number of decisions seems daunting at first blush, but I think it's actually quite channeled for such a complex game.

If you ever want to give one of them a real shot, let me know. 

[Josquius]

Last Train is on my list to get someday. But time....

Mashinky is also one  I'm eying up in this promotion (albeit not on sale?). That looks potentially very good.

I really should learn how to play A-Train someday.

[grumbler]

I think that the management aspects of Last Train look good, but the real-time combat is a no-go.

On Matrix/Slitherine taking over Battlefront: if you bought any of their "new" Combat Mission Titles (Shock Force or later) through their Battlefront website, you can register them on your Matrix account and get Steam keys.

Log in here to review your orders: https://battlefront.com/matrixgames.html

Go here to redeem your serials (activation codes): https://www.matrixgames.com/member/registerserial

Note: It seems if you bought a bundle of main game and expansion, it only seems to let you register the expansion of the bundle - Steam forums indicate you will have to hit up Matrix support to redeem the main game. Alternatively, it seems that if you bought single game upgrades (the $5 "engine" upgrades also count as serials for the main game if you bought those).

I contributed to Jingle Jam and there are a few games that either I don't want or already have.  If anybody wants one of these message me and I'll send you the Steam code.  If you want more than one list them in order of preference, as I'll wait a bit to see if someone else who hasn't gotten one wants it.

Shadows of Doubt
For the King II
Citizen Sleeper
Submachine: Legacy
Scorn
Eternights
Wildfrost

There's also a MCC Island access key and a Displate 40% discount if anybody wants either of those.

That's very public spirited of you.

Yeah, saw that. I re-upped my subscription a few months ago. I have OW already, but I'm kinda stoked for Crime Boss Rockay City - it's one I wanted to check how good/bad/bland it is with all its star cast (throwback to the old GTAs, esp. Vice City and San Andreas in that regard), but never wanted to pull the trigger regardless of price tag.

Also, make sure to buy Warcraft 1 & 2 on GOG soon, because Blizz will pull it off the store soon.
