I wish Pete would buy/play the civil war game and then talk to me about it.

Also, I feel like I am about to get in to another round of civ iv binging after I win the Civil War so if anyone wants to talk about that, that is cool too.

What's this civil war game?


It’s in this thread, with a screen pic

Two data points in a row equal a trend.  OK, I will give it a shot! (if I have minimum system requirements  :cross fingers:)

Not sure I like what they did with the rating system this year.

I do too. The numbers are far more realistic than past years. I feel like games are going to be a lot closer.

It's pretty fun, but I have almost no idea what I am doing.  I took and held the first little town.

I wish there were better instructions.

Yeah it wants to mess with you a bit with how to prepare and especially as the game goes on it will have twists and turns.  It helps if you read a bit about the battles before hand to find out more about how they went, which is fun for me.

My strategy was basically like Grant's, I tried to maximize my army's size/skill and then overwhelm.  I usually doubled up the Confederates toward the end of the game.

Very impressed with MLB the show so far. Plays alot better than last year and hitting is way less frustrating. Anyone else having a problem getting the right roster for opening day in franchise mode?

rules of survival is about 1 million times better than pub G.  Which is impressive given they are basically the same game.

I wasn't sure how I would like FarCry5, but it's pretty great so far.  The .50 cal sniper rifle is legit.

This is my first time ever playing a farcry game, but having a blast.  got my silenced sniper rifle and pistol and just playing sneaky bastard mode.

I've also never played a Far Cry game - but have been eye balling Far Cry 5 hard. did you guys buy upgraded versions that include season pass or just go base mode?

It is my son's game, but it is the steelbox version.  Hit me up if you want to play in co-op mode and smoke some fools if you have a PS4.  ID is go_EMAW .

We (my son and I) bought the upgraded version with the season pass and extra digital content.
