My corporate overlords decided I get some vacation during this time of year, it being the holidays and all that. With some free days on my hands I'm planning to mess around with a couple games.

First up is Millennia a 4X game kinda like Civ. The twist is there are different ages that go off the rails from real history—so you can get a steampunk age or one where aliens invade and stuff like that. I barely touched it when it came out but now, after 7 updates, I figure I will give it a proper try.

Then theres Songs of Conquest, an indie game with amazing pixel art that’s sorta like the old Heroes of Might and Magic games- I might play this with a friend early next year as well.

EDIT: OK im feeling a bit tired so Im just gonna play my current Crusader Kings 3 save till I go 2 bed. Happy Holidays everyone

What are the fine folks on Hexbear playing obama

i got into painting warhammer minis a few months ago though i've slowed down a bit since then. i gotta get back to it because i've already gotten myself a big pile of shame

I started with "oh, I'll just make a Kill Team set and see how that goes" a few months ago, too, and now I've just impulse bought a Combat Patrol set, which is just a "quick start your hobby backlog" pack lol.

Super slow progress all around since I'm a parent. I need to post some of my WIPs on c/hobby

I've also been digging through some of my old board games and have been thinking about painting the little figures from Shadows Over Camelot. I probably will want a break from science fiction characters eventually!
