Yeah, been quiet around the ol DC side of things lately. We all havn't had a common interest in a game in quite some time. So, I've been trying to keep myself busy. With the release of the latest Civilization 4 expansion pack (Beyond the Sword), I decided to finally put my UI skills to use.

http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=240644

If anyone is into Civ4 and mods, I'd greatly appreciate any feedback. It has a long way to go, but I whipped it out under a self-determined and somewhat outrageously estimated deadline.

Anyone else have anything "fun" to report?

Wow.. haven't played Civ 4 yet.

Just finally getting my gaming time back myself. Started a new WoW characer with a cousin.. and trying LotRO trial account. A little bit of quakewars beta... But nothing major. Plan on setting up an IL2 server again once i get some work done here in the house. Need another circuit so i can have it running 24/7 without needing to shut it off to work on computers. Hopefully i will get that done in a few weeks... need to sync my free time with an electrican friend so i don't kill myself and it know its done right.

I beat Bioshock playing as a nice guy... now I guess I need to try as an evil bastard to see how much different the game is down that path.

Also, I've been pillaging Europe, Asia, and Africa as Venice in MTW: 2

The mod I am playing is called the Long Road, and each turn is roughly 10 minutes long (if I don't have a battle), and 5 more minutes of loading through the computer factions. So, I don't get very far very fast :)

Milan, France, HRE, Denmark, Hungary, Poland - RIP fuckers....

Actually, yeah, that's totally easier.

That works.

Ha, yeah, I played a bit of Long Road. But, as the name implies, it was too long for me. I finally found a home with Stainless Steel as it had faster gameplay, but I think the modder made some poor choices (popularity explosion) recently by expanding the map size and slowing down movement rates ><

Venice rules, nothing like seeing the gleaming steel of the Venetian Heavy Infantry supported by Venetian Archers.

Just so ya'll know, I'm selling my soul when WAR comes out because I'm such a goddamn fanboi for Warhammer. If ya'll don't pick the same server this time, ya'll don't even have to aknowledge each other's presences...I'll come for you..each and every one of you!
