    Europa Universalis IV

    What's the trick to cracking Great Britain? I'm going for the Bohemians achievement and had solidified my position in europe, more or less, but no idea how to build a big enough navy to secure an amphibious landing on them, not to mention actually getting a CB to do do. At least, not without...

    Soccer/Footy 2015-2016

    Why is everyone calling Bournmouth the weakest team in the competition? Obviously they're weaker than Liverpool and a game we should have won more comfortable at home, but they still won the championship last year, which should put them ahead of the other two promoted teams. And given how dire...

    Liverpool looking good so far after the early pressure from Bournemouth, but very luck to not have the goal chalked out since offside should have been called. Coutinho looking great with all the passes he's setting up. Lallana looks fairly ineffective though.

    Shame. Seems like a great night to have extra football on. Guessing it's due to the CL qualifying Man U has to do in conjunction with the shortened season.

    So there's an EPL game on friday night this week? Is that going to be a regular thing or they doing to just to help catch up on the schedule?

    Soccer/Footy 2015-2016

    I'll take 3 points at stoke no matter how they were achieved. Only watched Spurs / Manu this week and both teams were pretty shit. Man U looks a bit more solid defensively but didn't really have much going forward and seemed to just capitalise on Spur's mistakes, which is fine but seems a bit...

    Cities: Skylines

    I'm ashamed to say that I probably put in way more hours into Simcity, yet I feel much better about the skylines purchase. Do wish it had a bit more depth to it though. No doubt I'll pick up the expansion and play it some more again.

    DOTA 2

    I take it back. Despite what looks like a below average draft, Secret are executing pretty well. Let's see if they can go for the jugular this time.

    Isn't one of their players an aussie? That's pretty much only reason I'm supporting them since I'm so out of dota these days.

    That gets me itching to dust off football manager again. Question is, do I wait for the new one or just bust out last years which I barely played anyway. I do like having up to date squads though

    XCOM is a great game, but I can see how it might not suit everyone. Played Roll for the Galaxy recently and really enjoyed it. Can't wait to try it again now that I know what to do since I haven't played Race yet. Think my next purchase is going to be Viticulture, even I haven't tried it...

    Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

    I wonder how much revenue is brought in by the players themselves. I assume they all end up living close by and spending significant money on crap from the local area.

    Bit unconvinced about signing Benteke. Great player, who's probably worth 32m in today's market, but seems like it will create formation / playing time headaches. Obviously can't rely on Sturridge but he'd be first choice when fit, but also picked up ings, and origi, along with the misfits we...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Nathan Fillion would have made a good Harrison Ford replacement about ten years ago. Probably missed the window now.

    X-Men: Days of Future Past.

    The Rogue cut just came out. I only skimmed it to look for the new footage but seems like they've edited it a lot different which changes a lot of the pacing and structure. Think I prefer the theatrical version but may have to watch it properly.

    Europa Universalis IV

    Trying a re-reconquista game with Granada. Really challenging, though I've managed to make a nice base in Africa, vasseling Tlemecan, Morroco and should make more moves on tunis. Finished westernising but taking a while to catch up on techs. Think I made a mistake in releasing Aragon as a vassal...

    Hope City hurries up and offers 50m for Sterling before they realise how much of a waste of money it is and how toxic it will be having him in the squad.

    I've been really hooked on Concordia lately. It seems to have the right blend of strategy and random elements to make it satisfying to work out the best moves without them always being the best moves. Also succumbed and got some x-wing but haven't played it much yet. Debating whether I...

    Dark Matter

    Firefly was almost like that. Second episode had Mal kicking a guy into the engine intake, in cold blood. Sure, he was a bounty hunter chasing them but still not something you'd ever see on Star Trek. They were also the subversive underground against the oppressive government, but we only ever...

    I must had watched a different one, because the Pilot I saw was a bit of a mess. The CGI looked really shitty in places which normally I don't worry too much about except they filled half the episode with it. The pilot felt so rushed, squeezing way too much into it and jumping from one thing...
