I feel to be in a bit of an AAR mood (mostly to be done on weekends), but can't quite settle on a game:
- OOTP14 - Soviet Baseball League in competition to the MLB, starting in 1940s. "Real" World Series to be played between winners of each league.
- Elemental - Fallen Enchantress - got the game free because I got suckered into getting the original Elemental. Seems more polished now and pretty much the game promised at start. I'm a total n00b at it, though.
- Blood Bowl Chaos Edition - Again, I suck at it, but I like it a fair bit.
- Distant Worlds - Shadows. Taking a culture from humble beginnings to their destiny among the stars.
- Shogun 2: Total War - A game I like but haven't played extensively.
- Total Extreme Wrestling 13 - a text based, detailed sim about running a wrestling promo. Ideally with a 1989 or 1991 real world mod. (The related Wrestling Spirit 3, where you manage a single wrestler, will be out later this year.)
- Alea Jacta Est (original or Birth of Rome) games would also be an option
Elemental sounded interesting. Do that one.
Is there a way to get Distant Worlds and it's expansions without going through Matrix games?

Slitherine's webshop? :P
(Yes, I know they and Matrix are basically the same.)
Elemental.
Shogun. I have that game but have never really played it. If you do an interesting AAR it might persuade me to try. :)
Raz goes for Distant worlds.
So that's so far:
2x Elemental
1x Shogun
1x Distant Worlds
I like the Soviet Baseball. :ph34r:
Distant Worlds - Shadows, I don't know anything about it so I choose this one.
2x Elemental
2x Distant Worlds
1x Shogun
1x OOTP
I'm more important than these other jokers, so my vote is worth ten times as much as everyone else's.

:rolleyes:
Don't roll your eyes at me, son.
Distant Worlds is a pretty cool game, but you do want all the expansions (3 of them now IIRC) and matrix/slitherine doesn't seem to sell a compendium edition (ie it is expensive) :(
We need our man Tamas to get this sorted :cool:
So that is a vote for Distant Worlds Syt :cool:
Mix & match, Syt. Mix & Match.

They'll have a Christmas sale. :)
Sweetass, I vote to start a AAR and then drop it after it starts getting good.
Elemental - Fallen Enchantress
Thanks for the feedback guys.
Looks like a close battle between Elemental and Distant Worlds.
3x Elemental
3x Distant Worlds
1x Shogun
1x OOTP
I want to see the wrestling simulator.
I could vote for either Enchantress or DW.
But I gotta give the edge to Enchantress, only in that I am somewhat interested in trying it out myself.
DW
Distant Worlds
5x Distant Worlds
4x Elemental
1x Shogun
1x OOTP
1x TEW13
Looks like a slim lead for DW ...

Or I could just take a vote and not start at all. :P
Nah.

your tonnage don't count. Otherwise according to you a holes my vote would be x100. :P
We're all a bunch of lardasses, so nobody's getting extra votes.

If you're not going baseball, at least name the teams. :P

Bah, I figured you'd name new ones.
That equalized Elemental and DW at 5 each.
I wanted to start yesterday, but I had to finish a presentation for a training I'm doing this week. :P

I see what I did. I'll withdraw my vote, to allow you to go ahead with DW.
In fact, I will change my vote to DW to get it over with.

No worries - I haven't started playing yet, so you didn't delay anything, since I won't be able to start before the coming weekend, anyways (it's a busy week with trainings and our European Convention).
