League of Legends:
I just got done playing a couple games of League of Legends, and I only reported one player for being a dick! I have begun to really enjoy the game more as I have gotten better and don't get completely rolled each game. League of Legends is a multi-player kill-fest in it's rawest form. 80 some champions (They add new ones at an alarmingly fast rate) to choose from, and it is free to play if you are okay with only playing the free champions that week. (They rotate several in and out each week.) You can buy champions permanently with points earned in game, or bought for cold, hard cash. For Christmas I got a couple points cards and I have had a good time buying the champions that I think look cool and learning to play them.
Shadowrun:
My Shadowrun game is finally continuing. We moved it from out Monday game to our Sunday game. The table is SUPER FULL, and I am hoping that I can still run a good game with the number of people playing. I am expecting to have to ramp up the difficulty in order to provide a challenge for a team of 6. However, Shadowrun is a game where PC's play a specific role, and having lots of people means lots of roles are filled.
Fantasy:
I am trying really hard to get my fantasy character, Karsh the Unkillable, into the game as more than a secondary... tertiary character. (There are NPC's more important.) I think I am getting a good foot under me, but have a long way to go until I will be happy with my own ability to participate in the game. Currently, we are fleeing a castle under siege to request help from a floating castle with knights that ride giant hawks. Only, we know of a prophecy where the whole thing is going to come crashing down. Two of our party members just got hitched in game, and are dealing with oodles of personal drama.
Firefly:
Cain Haverly Transport is making tons of cash transporting people back and forth from the small town we are in with the new brothel/casino/riverboat thingy. Also... Cain won an asston of money at a higher risk table and now has to enter into a high stakes tournament so he can loose it all. (Damn compulsive gambling.) We also have a family that is supposed to be dead stashed out in an old abandoned military facility awaiting pickup to get off this planet. Cain wants to go with them.
Dresden:
We just fought Muffy's (Our rich, sorceress in training) thought to be dead warlock husband. Now we are traipsing into the never never to find and rescue Adrian's (Rich white court virgin) mother. (She just happens to be my superior in a super shady organization dedicated to eradicating all existence of things not meant to be known.
Steampunk:
I'm not 100% sure what is happening, but, I got a cool idol with some kind of creature magically sealed inside of it. I need to take a strip to Istanbul so I can go in the library there and figure out what the hell it is. (I suppose Budapest might work too.)
DND:
My sad gaming. I basically got pushed out. Our GM is a grad student at UCLA, so, his schedule changes with what classes he has to teach. And, well... apparently the only time he can run is Monday nights or the weekend, and Monday is when we play Fantasy or Dresden, and the weekend, well, I just can't commit to that with all the trips I have to make to Lynchburg or Greensboro on a regular basis. Poo. We are in epic tier and I was just starting to get really into it. I have a lot of trouble getting into 4E and the GM finally caught me and now... well... no more game for me.
Battlettech:
Our missing player was finally able to make it, it was awesome, I like gaming with him, and our mercenary command is a little weak without our third voice in it. Currently we are working for House Kurita pirate hunting right before the War of 3039. We are expecting to have our contract extended and modified to go smack up some Davions and Lyrans.
Life:
I just got a new job. It was a difficult decision that I had to make. I really appreciate all of the responsibility that FLBE, my old company, placed on my shoulders and allowed me to do my own thing. However, it was a small minority owned business, and couldn't provide what I needed to live the lifestyle that I want. So, I have made the change and will be working for Wiley|Wilson in Alexandria. It is a much shorter drive, and the benefits are out of this world. I am super excited to start on Monday. (Today was my last day at FLBE, no rest for the wicked.)
Other shit:
I am still working on Persona 3, Deus Ex, Assassin's Creed 2, and Oblivion. I need to get back on those games and kill them off soon.
