Its a campfire cooking kind of night.

Went for a bike ride today with my son rather than a hike. So here is a small waterfall from yesterday

Won my 1st game with Kush in Old World. Quite easily, and I allied with Numidia (tribe) and took over a bunch of their city sites. Only war was with Egypt (Orange) to protect my tribal ally and no cites were lost or gained. Points Victory

This morning's fun. Scout day rocket launch. Thanks to Southern Area Rocketry for hosting. We had 3 successful launches in 3 attempts.

Latest go round on the Random everything Old World. Got gifted Babylon under Nebuchadnezzar on a large single continent. (I did check where to find this in the game) Beat Greece to one tribal choke point, and nabbed a whole area from under Rome's nose.

Random map - Hard Wood Forest Random leader - Cyrus/Persia The Strong difficulty. Points win. Apologies, I can't alter the Egyptian Orange which is super close to Persian red when over forests. Good expansion versus the tribes, using Cyrus and other generals to make a difference.

This was a fun one of #OldWorld Random nation Assyria - not a huge fan of them, especially their unique units but that was the hand dealt. Lakes and Inland Seas map. The "border boost" technology card came late for me an the effect is very obvious with so many cities

Goal was a quick win, ideally a double win as this is easier than I typically run. In the end I won, in 101 turns so pretty fast, and flirted with the Double win from about turn 48 through 60. First time playing a random desert map, it is definitely different. Some cities close, others apart

5th game as Kush (finish 4-1 with the different leaders). Fast out of the box, kept Carthage and Rome relatively happy with caravans and the occasional bribe, plus a good wall of steel on each border. I think the next DLC I get will be the one that adds families to the existing nations.

Random large map, Random leader gave me Carthage. Set me up for a trade/diplomacy/espionage type game I *think* the script is multiple continents, but cannot be sure. First solid border between myself and Babylon was mostly determined by a mountain block, only could get round the edges.

The mayor did a Baker Institute luncheon this week & this moment caught our ear. Apparently staff have chided him for not listening enough.👍 Yet he seems to not realize community input has often been ongoing BEFORE he arrived with his OWN ideas. 👎 🤦 Full video: www.youtube.com/live/5-SiH3g...

According to Pete Hegseth, his leadership did not put our troops in, “more of a harm’s way.” But now US troops are coming forward, saying they were not adequately protected. America deserves answers.
