I play Civ 5 as the Sicilians... All the time.
I can't be defined as a good player, but still, I have the best fun of my life when my Norman Knights run over some Japanese soldiers.
It's the small things in life...

Just from that one screenshot I can tell you ain't that good of a Civ 5 player. Not bad either, just more on the casual side.
Yeah, i'm definitely casual. I'm also a very late warmonger. about 30 turns after that screencap was taken I got Dynamite and invaded Mongolia and took half their stuff. PWNT <3 I need to invade Gandhi next though because otherwise he'll just runaway with the game.
Not the scariest runaway AI i've had on Emperor though. That award goes to a Washington who invaded me with Cover II terrain penalty ignoring Great War Infantry around turn 350 on Epic Speed... I was second in tech and had JUST discovered Metallurgy. I won the war because I managed to get two research agreements and a great scientist RIGHT in time to pop my way into Artillery and Replaceable parts but yeeesh. I also had like 5 defensive pacts, lul. <3

Playing some Fallen enchantress Legendary Heroes....A 4x strategy game which apparently is a genre? I did fall in love with this game which is easy for me since it has tactical battles and lots of customization.
Has anyone seen this? Pretty similar game by the looks of it but I do like the changes they've done to the graphics.

I played civ 5 6 player deity randoms (i fkin rolled Ottomans I thought I was screwed), had the best start if I were incas, nothing but river hills and mountains as far as the eye could see. Managed to beat Russia in a war thanks to terrain (soooooo many chokepoints) and took one of their petra cities that I converted into my major production city, chokepoints combined with city states completely cut off Russia's reinforcements, was so good, from there I slowly worked my way up.

been playing the second Dawn of War or to be more specific, the Retribution stand alone.
Well, the biggest beef with the game is the army painter. having the official GW colors is nice, and it's a bit less limited than in the fist DoW, but still, it's lacking.
Like in the Warhammer Mark of Chaos, where you can swap out helmets, armor, all kind of crap like that.
I want to make my own stuff. not just recolor the base models. it sucks.
Heard they're making an Inquisitor themed open world RPG, wonder how that'll turn out.

Back to playing Diablo III. I'm playing Season for the first time. Not for the leader-board s*it, cause I'm not a Hardcore player, but because I want that sleek Malthael Mount for HotS. Additional prizes are also nice (like the pet).
I was looking to get back into the game anyhow cause they've added a lot of stuff with those big patches (and the recent 2.3.0 patch). I must say I'm really enjoying the game right now (more then ever probably). They smoothed things out. Crafting is easier and more rewarding (you can craft Legendary items from rare items), getting nice loot has never been so accessible and the game is simple fun. Jumping back and forth between Campaign and Adventure Mode keeps things interesting.
After the quick Seasonal Run to lvl 70 (for the mount) and with the hopes of completing "Journey quests" (for other rewards) I plan to play the game with a new class I didn't try before (I'm playing Demon Hunter a second time). Also, there are some rumors about a second expansion. If what they say is true, that we will get a Druid/Amazon hybrid character, then I'm hyped, cause I would like to see the good ol' shapeshifter making a comeback...

Me too dude
That mount is pretty sweet and I'm not gonna buy one so this is the best way to get one!
Honestly though it makes me miss diablo 2 lol. That game was a lot more challenging and I liked the classes better. I hope they'll make another expansion after this WoW one comes out.
There is speculation of a druid class

It was finally released on Steam. I'm really enjoying it. It's a unique game. For those of you who don't know it's practically a virtual board game (in gaming terms a TBS with some RPG elements) with original rules and graphics like in an animated cartoon, but in the style of those grimmer ones for instance Secret of Nimh or Redwall. Four characters (8 to choose from +4 that will be available for everyone later on) fight on a randomly generated board moving about, casting spells, lying traps, fighting and earning enough stats to defeat the corrupted king (there are four ways to win the game). Aside from moving most actions are triggered via cards (with gorgeous animated illustrations). You can also "burn" cards to boost you in fights. It's setting (furries!), atmosphere (art and music) and mechanics (card burn system) make it something else. I think that AI is decent, but the game is like the board game Talisman: simply staying alive is hard enough (there's no perma-death but you loose points and momentum with it and you can loose in effect) cause there are a lot of hazardous elements on the board (plus characters fight each other practically all the time). The game has a lot of RNG in it, but can be played strategically nevertheless.
I've played the Early Access version some time ago, and the full version is a big step forward from it. They've overhauled the quest system (now it finally makes sense and is deeper and more interactive). They've added a tutorial which at the same time functions as a nice prologue. Adding additional four characters made the game deeper. They also made some nice tweaks to the whole game, and made graphics more detailed. There are some small issues here and there, but I think those will be fixed in the future.
The price of 20 euros might be a little steep (Armello has replayability, but could've used more features imo), but I highly recommend this game! Also, dev feedback is quite nice cause they're a dedicated bunch (the whole game was developed after a Kickstarter campaign and had a long beta development phase).

Playing a Breton, too. Doing a mage run with emphasis on Destruction and Conjuration. Also building up my stealth skills, primarily Speech for selling stuff.
So far, so good. The enemies are still relatively easy to kill, but playing on Expert can be a bit tedious. I dare not try Master or Legendary.

It laid on my shelf 2 years because I didn't know how start it on win7 and disable Xlive something...Yeah it's Halo2. Currently fighting Prophet of Regret in temple. Regret me...
