    We had a really nice session yesterday.

    X-Newbie, tchatzi, Sgt.Apone, and me. A bit later FuzzyBunny and Westy showed up. The usual suspects best team in this universe.

    First maps on Hard difficulty, to shove off the rustyness. Then upped to Insane.

    Which proved difficult, 'cos Apone insisted on rotating the map 180 or 270 degrees. Made it quite hard, but interesting as well. Ran into wrong directions several times, only to hear 'Marine down!' from behind, for lack of medication...

    We needed a couple of attempts for all the maps, and when we got through, we only did it on the last drop of health, or at the very last second.

    But the feeling of accomplishment was great, once again. I have still to find another game that can feel so rewarding. Thanks folks.

      Give me some advance notice and I'd join for another revival game. ND probably would too.

        Or you could make yourself reachable via IM. They grabbed me from Steam.
        Based on a true story.
        The prequel.

          I'm not going to run Steam in Lunix. x, LF, etc, do you guys have a multi-network IM program like Pidgin, Miranda, Trillian, etc?

                That makes it sound like I'm responsible for you.

                    What about a game this evening/tonight?

                    Time for another Alien Swarm Thursday, I say!

                            We had a full server yesterday!

                            Don't call it dead, anyone. If anything, the game has been zombified (or was that zombulated?), and everyone knows how difficult to kill those are!

                              Game running!

                              Nice game, starring Kangaxx, Meermumu and yours truly.

                              We wasted a good bunch of bugs, including a queen and a brainbug.

                              Only that nasty mission codenamed 'Salvage' held us up a while. And that can be blamed on the huge crate of beer that some marine smuggled into the dropship.

                              If the IAF hears about veterans misusing the cloning process for hangover prevention, it's gonna rain black marks in personal files, I guess.
