We had a four-player game of Kill Team today! Turns out I'm pretty shit at playing my team (Imperial Guard) and I barely did anything and got mostly shot off the board. I came third and that was because the fourth guy was having fun just blowing shit up and wasn't actually playing objectives, heh. Though in retrospect, I don't think the terrain was really set up very well, there was a lack of heavy cover around the deployment zones which meant I had to be bunched up and in conceal to avoid being murdered on the first turn.

Yesssss, first multiplayer game since COVID hit! I brought my decks in, and although I only won one of the three games myself, my decks won all three. 💪🏻

Apart from doing chores, this weekend has been spent almost entirely playing Cities: Skylines on the Xbox. NO REGRETS. They released a free "remastered" update that brings it in line with the (software) architecture of the PC version, and one of the things that allows is that instead of a maximum of nine 2x2 kilometre tiles in total area, your city can now be a maximum of TWENTY FIVE 2x2 kilometre tiles! Unfortunately the save file format is totally different and so can't be brought from the original game to the remastered version, so I'm having to start from scratch. My biggest city in the old game was about 120k population, I'm at a bit under 19k in my new city now. As always my favourite part is setting up the public transport and watching all the little people go everywhere!

Mid-week #WarhammerUnderworlds with @[email protected]! This time it was me playing the tricksy Skaven, Skittershank's Clawpack, and him playing Khagra's Ravagers. I'd played the Clawpack once before and it went disastrously poorly, but it seems to depend entirely on the cards you draw and when. This time was FAR better, there were lots of fun things to do and we ended up calling it at the end of the second round when I was ahead 13-7 and @[email protected] had only a single fighter left.

First game of Kill Team: Into The Dark! Heavy Intercessors vs. Astra Militarum Scions. Really enjoying this format, it was a hell of a close game, sadly I lost 6-7, mostly due to a couple of mistakes on my part.

And tonight's Wednesday night gaming was Warhammer Underworlds! Khagra's Ravagers versus Grashrak's Despoilers. The Despoilers were mine, made with the new Nemesis format, and while I won 12-8, I don't think the Tooth and Claw deck is the right one for them, they're a bit too fragile to be wading into combat.

First game of Warhammer Underworlds with the new Gnarlwood rules, Ironsoul's Condemnors vs. the Shadeborn! I used Battle Mallet's suggested Nemesis deck (https://www.battle-mallet.com/nemesis-decks/) for the Condemnors because it turned out the one I had put together a while back sucked, and it was very fun, but ended up very one-sided, oops. It was partially due to some lucky rolling on my part, but we called it half-way through the second turn out of three total because I'd wiped out @yayKM's warband entirely and the score was already 9-5. Fighter of the match goes to Brodus Blightblade who single-handedly killed two of the four enemy warriors outright (the first one in the first activation of turn one) and did two out of three damage to a third one that allowed me to ping that third one for an extra one damage to kill him. I really like the new rule changes for activations specifically, and the Nemesis format is great.

It's the hot season in Forza Horizon 5, and it feels like I'm driving on Tatooine. And then a dust storm rolled in!

Haha, Forza Horizon 5 is getting into the Christmas spirit as well: there's a giant Christmas tree in the middle of the city, and various other places have big candy canes lining the side of the road. In related news, still having a ton of fun in my hotted-up Datsun 510.

First game of Warhammer Underworlds in a little while, the vampires of the Crimson Court vs. sneaky aelves of the Shadeborn. It was a very low-scoring game, I won with the Court 9-7 but on THREE separate occasions @yayKM needed to roll a critical success (essentially rolling a 6 on one single D6) or one of her characters would die, and she managed it all three times.
