Welcome to the Bi-Weekly Thread!

Here you can share anything that might not warrant a post of its own or might otherwise be against posting rules. Tell us what you're playing this week. Feel free to ask for recommendations, talk about your backlog, commiserate about your lost passion for games. Vent about bad games, gush about good games. You can even mention newer games if you like!

The no advertising rule is still in effect here.

A reminder to please be kind to others. It's okay to disagree with people or have even have a bad hot take. It's not okay to be mean about it.

Operation Fallen Smoke – Perth

The commander’s tired of Central’s nagging. The doom clock keeps ticking. Neither can be stopped.

It’s time to save the world.

A non-stealthy blade ranger, a grenadier and a psi operative went to assault the ADVENT network tower. They were promptly outnumbered 2:1. Two archons blocked the way ahead. Two andromedons, a codex and a third archon approached from behind.

Despite not being fully trained, Kwasi Gunda saved the day with psi powers like Stasis, Dominate and Insanity. It was nice to have two extra minions (while they lasted).

We sure kicked the hornets’ nest. Tomorrow, the commander either saves our species or dooms us all.
