The Tide is High

Could it be? A Warhammer 40,000 equivalent of Vermintide?

Apparently so. 

of course this is a trailer so it's too soon to have any concrete details but it would seem that the players would be controlling a group of Guardsmen - a far cry from what I thought would work in doing a Vermintide-esque setting (that being an Inquisitor and their retinue). 

Still, call me excited.

Todd you so

Not much i can say here except this made me laugh 

Benchtop

Recently, I caved into peer pressure and obtained Tabletop Simulator. 

I've heard some good things about this game. Sure replicating a tabletop game on a computer may not sound like much but what is particularity impressive is that many users have replicated their favourite games, thus resulting in countless add-ons. With such effort invested, something must be there right?

Well, the first thing I did, upon installation, was indeed have a look at the amount of games. And the rumours were true: There is indeed a monumental amount of games replicated. So much so, it is baffling to know where to start.

Although I am puzzled that there is a 2nd and 4th editions of Talisman available but no 3rd edition....

Commanding position

Of course I would buy the remastering of Command and Conquer. I would have to be a complete idiot not to.

From someone who grew up in the eighties, the original Command and Conquer was spoken of in terms of awe. It became one of those games that you had to own. In fact, i think I knew more people who had Command and Conquer than i knew people who had Warcraft. And of course, the only thing that could surpass Command and Conquer was it's successor Red Alert. 

Because I, at the time, was both broke and in possession of a crummy computer, I didn't play a lot of Command and Conquer. So playing it now, complete with modern resolutions, is a new experience. And it seems that it's aged remarkably well. Okay sure the intelligence of my units is woeful (even to the point that their marching right into the fire and ruining my chance of victory) but the rest of the game still holds up. And the music still rocks. 

So, how about remastering Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2 then?
