I have been very disappointed in gaming lately. I have actually been Retro-gaming. I was one of 50 people playing MOH online the other day. You know what? I was actually enjoying myself. The servers are still up for Warfighter and has a decent crowd also.

I'm hoping Insurgency Sandstorm is decent. R6 siege is a disappointment and that had some great potential. The Vegas titles were the best of that series in my opinion.

Damn sorry guys. I'm a bit tied up at the moment. Reunion tonight and a 50th to go to next week.
Can't believe it, not been out in ages either!
I will log in to see if anyone is around later.

I may have scrolled right past it, but do we have a time for the upcoming event? I'm up for it if it's between about 18:00 GMT+3 (summer time) and 21:00 GMT+3. So in GMT+0 that's 15:00 and 18:00. Any earlier than that and I may not have a proper table set up for racing.

After that there will be a Finnish break: I'll be testing my new apartment building's sauna for an hour. I can't guarantee I'll be back in the game after that but I can try. Then again, if that's the only good time for the rest of you I could just wait a week for the next sauna shift.

Another new update incoming. Biggest changes: two new maps, new game mode: campaign. In the campaign game mode you will stay on the same side for the whole campagin (unless auto-balance kicks in). You'll be fighting for parts of Vietnam, possibly losing and winning territories.

A Campaign can take up to 11 years, going through three distinct War Periods (by default and subject to admin modification):

Early - 3 Years, 1965-1967
Mid - 5 Years, 1968-1972
Late - 3 years, 1973-1975


As players join the server, they will join either the Northern or Southern factions, which will be their team for the remainder of the campaign (barring any balance features enabled by the server). The armies available to each faction to use during the campaign will be based on several factors:

War Period (ex: Non ARVN armies will withdraw by late war, leaving the ARVN as the sole army for the Southern Faction)
Region/Map is being fought over (ex: The US Marines are available only in 3 provinces close to the DMZ)
Faction Abilities to use doing the Campaign (ex: The Northern Faction can use the Ho Chi Minh Trail Campaign ability to attack any region adjacent to the trail vs the Southern Faction ability to use Search and Destroy to inflict heavy combat power penalties on the North with a battlefield win)


The Faction Abilities of Ho Chi Minh Trail and Search and Destroy can only be used once every three turns (and up to three times in a default length campaign). Factions can win in one of several ways:

Control all Battlegrounds
Force the enemy faction out of Combat Power
Control the most Victory Points (each battleground is worth a certain number of Victory Points)
In the case of a Victory Point tie, the team with the most Combat Power left will become the winner
