Hey all!

Figured we’d try something like this. Let me know what you all think, and if you have any feedback on what you would like a weekly thread like this to look like. Thanks

What are you all playing? Anything you got from the steam sale you’re enjoying?

Beyond All Reason, a free and open-source game that has a surprising amount of polish.

It's a bit like Supreme Commander (an RTS), but smaller in the right ways. Where Supreme Command had 2 blobs of 200 tanks smashing into each other in chaos, Beyond All Reason has 40 units fighting a positional battle that is comprehensible.

The most popular game mode is 8v8. I didn't realize real-time strategy games could support such large player counts, but it works, and it's nice being only a small part of the overall team.
