Re: Best strategy game
the original Blitzkrieg, i didnt like the second one..
C&C Generals is alright, but i wouldnt list it in the top games of all time
World in conflict is really good, i find it really tough though, i cant get past this one mission :S

Yeah its very hard. I passed it all and it really can get on your nerves sometimes
Just when I discovered the meaning of life, they changed it.

Re: Best strategy game
I must maintain my opinion about XCOM. You aren't a strategy gamer until you played all three.
I cant play SR2020 well but I still love 2010. Chris will hate me for exploiting his game to death.

Re: Best strategy game
Some good choices above.
I'd like to vote for a few:
- War in the Pacific (WITP) & War in the Pacific Admirals Edition. Probably spent more time with this game than any other.
- HOI 2 and now HOI 3. These are a close second to the above.
- Steel Panthers. Great game, but getting too dated for my taste.
- Take Command 2nd Manassas. Great game by small publisher (now defunct).
- Silent Hunter Series. I personally love sub games. Love the career options. Hate depth charges.
Interestingly, other than WITP which I play-by-email almost exclusivley, all the others (including SR2010/2020) I play against the AI.
First person shooters and flight sims can be fun, but aren't really strategy games. I like them for an occasional diversion, but they don't hold my attention for long.
Regards,
Feltan

Re: Best strategy game
PC gamer did an artical on X-com a few months back. Heh I bet its sales have increased over the last few months becouse of it.
But I also want to add to the list. Panzer Generals, and TOAoW (The Operational Art of War) that game was very heavily stat orintated, And takes a real arm chair general to play. And one of the steepeset learning curves out there.

Re: Best strategy game
Panzer general is awesome.
2 is basically Xcom 1 on horse steroids. I finally edited the cash with hexeditor and went for R'lyeh, I mean T'leth.I love XCOM: Ufo defence, loathe XCOM: Terror from the Deep and haven't really tried XCOM: Apocalypse.

I can't stand the boat missions. The levels are much too big and take too long to complete imho.The Khan wrote:Panzer general is awesome.

Re: Best strategy game
Feltan - How do you feel about Steel Panters II: Modern Battles?
I have it in my collection, but have not played it since 1998. Maybe I should revisit it.
