I think I like this quite a lot. I’m not entirely sure, though. There don’t seem to be many different units and there’s no way to manually make mixed groups of units that you can easily access. (When playing Dawn of War yesterday I was struck by how much I group units with Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2,

Things I learned last night: 1) Being party leader is really quite stressful. 2) Lag’s no fun. Except in Rocket Race, which is insane enough to survive. 3) I am not good at all at Ninjaball.

One quick go on Saturday, second round of the UGVM Tournament. I lost 10-5, but I’d feared a much harsher score line, so I was quite happy with the result.

Last night I played a lot of single player and got up to the penultimate level, level eight. Now, level eight is already infamous online with The Internet deeming it to be a rubbish level in an otherwise stunning game. In this case, The Internet is right. It’s bloody atrocious. Incredibly repetitive in the most

I am loving this. However, after playing the single player for an hour or so I accepted a game invite for some multiplayer fun, assuming the game had been saving my progress as I’d been going along. It seems not. Looks like I’ll have to restart, but I really don’t mind, given the fun I

I’ve discovered something. Using the Needler and the shotgun is the way to go on Easy. Oh, and that sword thing, whatever it’s called. It starts to feel more Quake-like and is a lot of fun.
