Gods & Kings

Posted on by

Just started playing the latest Civilization V  – Gods & Kings expansion. Nothing much yet to say, other than the faith system seems to be very interesting and the game seems to run more smoothly than before.

I started to play with the new Ruler Gustavus Adolphus (Kustaa Aadolf, as we finns would call him) – the Swedes. Also I am trying to be less aggressive than before, and the changes to the diplomacy system seems to support it!

I got also my copy of the Chaosium’s Basic Roleplaying Game -the hardbook edition. It is bigger and heftier than I expected. I was very positively dumbfound that it used metric system instead of the imperial standards. Didn’t expected that one. The book seems promising indeed, but lots of reading to do. Yes, this is what I do, I collect roleplaying game books.

The summer vacation is over, and back to work! l don’t want to. The winter is coming!

RopeCon 2012 is gone and I missed it again, as I have missed since its conception. This year I actually considered to go there with my son, but nevertheless we didn’t make it. Instead we bought Magic the Gathering deck builder’s box and builded several decks (black/blue, green, white and red). Last time I have played the game, was in the 1996 about 16 years ago.

My son got hang of the game, and surprised me with his english skills. He is now drawn to the game like a moth to the light. And I had forgotten how fun game it is. Some MtG gaming expected tonight!

The Beginning

Life, as I know it now, is not simple. There are obligations and expectations to fulfill. Fun and enjoyable things to be found in every passing day. Still, I cannot be all the time as nice as you would want me to be. Therefore, this is the media for some Steam venting!
