Well, what did you get for christmas? Did you get what you wanted? What did you want you didn't get? Whad you get you didn't want.




Hotschi -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/25/2013 6:13:56 PM)

I got a couple books by my wife and my mother-in-law, namely E.B.Potter Bull Halsey and Anthony Tully Battle of Surigao Strait - nice additions to my library. Then some vouchers for the gasoline station - something which always comes in handy.

Most of the presents were to our little boy, and watching your son being excited by getting what he "has always wanted and need sooo badly" is the best present - a father can get.




Kung Karl -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/25/2013 6:28:06 PM)

Super Mario 3D World for the Wii U and a book.

I am at the stage in the life when the best part about christmas is watching my daughter opening her presents and go bananas of joy. Wonderful!

(Super mario 3D world is great!)




Twotribes -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/25/2013 7:13:26 PM)

Bought myself a Matrix game.




Hotschi -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/25/2013 7:42:52 PM)

Which one, Twotribes?




Twotribes -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/25/2013 8:14:34 PM)

Umm commander the great war? That sound right?




Hotschi -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/25/2013 9:07:58 PM)

World War I, hmmmm.... The only WW I game I got is World War One Gold but never was able to get it to run - andit's not hex-based either. Let me know what you think about Commander The Great War, it sounds interesting.




Will_L_OLD -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/25/2013 10:22:01 PM)

To go to work [8|] boooring...

Can't figure out how to attack with more then one unit. It is not explained in the manual, the Computer can do it so I should too. Posted in the appropriate forum but that looks dead for months.




dougo33 -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 12:05:52 AM)

I bought myself the Panzer Corp series with money I got for Christmas. I have been wanting them and figured "what the heck". Wife gave me a funny look, but that's normal lol




GaryChildress -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 12:23:08 AM)

Got two pairs of socks and a barrel of popcorn. The socks I asked for the popcorn was just icing on the cake! [:D]




Ratzki -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 2:09:47 AM)

Worked this morning, now will be deciding what game to buy with my loot.




Gilmer -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 2:33:44 AM)

I got two shirts. I don't ever ask for anything. I'm single and my sister is the only one that ever gets me anything. It was a rather poor Christmas (meaning hardly any of us had any money), but I don't like getting gifts. I am always glad to see others get gifts, though. Sounds like it was a good Christmas for everyone.

Why do you think the computer can do it Twotribes? You can only attack with one unit at a time - same as the AI.




Perturabo -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 4:17:29 AM)

Kuokkanen -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 1:16:15 PM)

Let's see... some money, few boxes of chocolate (~1,4 kg's worth), pastries, flashlight, decoration lights, socks, and Nausicaä anime movie with finnish subtitles. Decent haul.

[edit]
And Vengeance Weapon Battery for Warhammer 40,000 miniatures wargame. And I still haven't assembled Vendetta gunship I got year ago...




Lecivius -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 3:41:22 PM)

I luv fresh pineapple. So the wife got me the biggest one she could find. Darned thing was HUGE. She put it in a box, wrapped it all pretty, and put it under the tree.



The week after Thanksgiving [X(][:-][8|]




CGGrognard -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 5:20:10 PM)

Commander The Great War is a good WW1 game, however "out of the box" it has some ommissions and limitations as far as historical accuracy is concerned. There are a couple of mods out there (see Commander The Great War) in the forums that make this game even more historical and fun.

CGGrognard -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 5:23:41 PM)

One at a time (e.g. three units v one) each of the three will have a chance to attack to the one individually.

british exil -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 9:33:10 PM)

I got a powertool as I want to do a few odd jobs around the home next year. My baby son is still learning to crawl (7 months) so I still have some time to make the house safe. Gates on stairs etc.

He got tons of presents and I was allowed to build his "Bobby Car". was one of the best christmas's. Doing something for your child while watching him enjoy his first christmas.

Agathosdaimon -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/26/2013 11:24:26 PM)

Skeleton -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/27/2013 12:07:09 AM)

I am getting a new son; but he won't be here until the 31st! Future wargamer and finally someone to play all my (our?) boardgames with!!

Big plans that probably won't pan out. My son wanted nothing to do with my wargames.




Perturabo -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/27/2013 2:57:13 AM)

I bought myself Carmageddon 1 and 2 and Steam and Iron: Russo-Japanese War.

Carmageddon 2 is a very good game. Great idea and execution.

Yes Big plans. I got my son in May. And due to the various tasks that come along with the little chap, I find that I have very little time to play.
Daytime chores put a stop to my weekend gaming. And evening times is a little better, mum goes to bed while I look after the baby phone, I manage to get
An hour or two on the PC.

But seeing him smile, is worth every minute spent with him.

Skeleton -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/27/2013 9:58:29 AM)

Well, Mum relented and let me purchase Blocks in the East and War of the Ring in the event I can sway him!




nelmsm1 -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/27/2013 11:30:02 AM)

I was lucky enough to get AGEOD's Civil War II and the Distant Worlds: Shadows expansion. Plenty enough for this old man. Had lots of fun watching the grandkids tear into the presents.




wodin -> RE: What'd you get??? (12/27/2013 1:19:51 PM)

Nothing to open for me Xmas..though it's all about giving.
