Video di multi gameplay con Empire Total War

Lo scorso week-end ho fatto un match multi ad Empire; il livello dello scontro è stato piuttosto basso nel senso che mi sono trovato di fronte i soliti razzettari folli che le hanno prese di santa ragione, proprio perchè per proteggere i razzi si sono fatti massacrare separatamente, a fronte di un nostro assalto deciso. Forse pensavano che saremmo rimasti fermi a subire?

Close Combat – Panthers in the Fog teaser trailer

Ancora Guadalcanal con War in the Pacific Admiral edition

Anche se lentamente proseguo la mia campagna a WITP AE. Dopo aver sbarcato le mie truppe sull'isola, adesso devo tenerle rifornite: una squadra pesante giapponese mi ha inflitto brutte perdite ai trasporti, ma hanno pagato caro, perchè nel mentre sono arrivate le mie portaerei che hanno fatto una strage danneggiando anche la Kirishina.

Primo test con la nuova beta patch di APOS

Ieri ho fatto una partitella con la nuova patch di Achtung Panzer Operation Star; confermo che la grafica e l'interfaccia sono migliorate, ed in più ho fatto un bel massacro di tedeschi.
