Anyone here plays Field of Glory 2? The just released Rise of Persia DLC is really fun and I'll be playing in the tournament using its armies, starting next week. you should join.

I have it and play it occasionally, but not well enough for tournaments.

I am quite hooked on Magic the Gathering: Arena. I am working on a zombie deck in honour of the black deck I had in Magic's Hungarian rip-off when I was a teenager.

Time to play some AC: Odyssey! Well after it finishes all that time to copy to the hard drive and then update itself.

I played it for 5 hours straight as soon as I got home from work

Btw, the coolest thing I've done so far is murder 3 sharks guarding a sunken temple while I'm swimming with a giant axe in one hand and wearing bronze armor.

Game is good.

Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion is $9.99 on Steam. I think I'm going to take a shot at it. I've always liked the idea of the game, and it gets high ratings, and might be multiplayer bait...

It delivers though I'm 9 hours in and have yet to have the opportunity for male on male romance. Just tried to push that bitch Odessa on me with flirt option every single time you run into her. Eventually pity asked her onto my crew.

I'm running with Kassandra and tried to romance Odessa when I first met her. No dice. 

I'm only about 7 hours in, though. I'm kind of taking my time and doing most, though not all, of the side missions. Only just started doing stuff in Megara.

I found an Athenian amphitheater in some other town I stumbled upon and I kind of got shivers. There is something about Assassin's Creed games and connecting with the past. AC2 and Brotherhood did that for me as well.

[The Brain]

Are you sure it was an amphitheater?

Still ain't found no male love (and I've even explored a bit of Athens!). Game did try to pitch an old woman at me though...

I'm beginning to forget my pre-friday life where I hadn't yet stomped (spartan kick) on wolves, bears, boars, etc.

Also, notoriety for slaughtering chickens / chickens attacking when you attack one of a group.

My Kassandra and the old woman got it on. The cutscene was hilarious

My Kassandra and the old woman got it on. The cutscene was hilarious 

Last night in Assassin's Creed: Xena Warrior Princess, I infiltrated a Spartan Fortress to kill its local Polemarch and steal some loot. I jumped onto one of its towers from a nearby cliff and proceeded to one-shot or two-shot a Spartan captain and his accompanying warriors with devastating fire arrow headshots. I ziplined to the other side of the fortress and laid a trap on the signal fire that defending troops use to call reinforcements and then snuck around to find the bear cage.

From a nearby rooftop I shot open the bear cage with an arrow and the bear proceeded to maul about 6 Spartans while I shot arrow after arrow into their backs. The bear finally died after killing 5 men. The Spartans finally seemed to locate my position so their leader put a bounty on my head. I fled to my original tower of death as 3 different mercenaries, one after another, climbed up to face me. I dispatched each of them and threw their arrow-ridden bodies from the tower as the Spartans looked on in horror. The Spartan Polemarch, my target who I had not yet killed, ran up to the signal fire to send for reinforcements. I laughed out loud from my tower as my trap exploded him into pieces. I mopped up the remaining Spartans shortly afterward and killed one final mercenary in a rooftop duel.

Lastly, I tracked the Spartan who had put out the contract for my head to a beach encampment not far from the fortress I recently conquered singlehandedly. One headshot later he joined his colleagues in Hades.

My Xena Warrior Princess simulator is fun and good.
