looking for suggestions
I guess this could be regarded as off-topic, but since civ3conquests has been my most recent favorite game, I'm thinking that it is on topic. So no flames please.


I'm a long time TBS gamer, favorites are Civ, MooI/II, Homm, SMAC, Strategic Command, Imp II, etc. I've most recently been playing a lot of Civ Conquests, EU2, and Strategic Command, and am looking for a change.

I have played a little of Dom2, MOOIII, Railroad Tycoon III, HOI, Victoria, Korsun Pocket, AOWII, GAlCiv, RON, and WBC2, and HommIII/WOG and HommIV/Equilibris, but none of these have really grabbed me. I'm now willing to put a little time (say 5-10 hours) into learning one or more of these games. Which would you recommend and why?

Thanks in advance.

I am a huge fan of HommIII. BTW they have a forum for games if you want more exposure.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (though I've never played any in the series I've heard of it before).

Two games I have enjoyed no end: Cossaks: European Wars (and the addons) and Sudden Strike (and addons) from CDV.
They are both over two years old, but I still do play them from time to time, I think they're awesome. Try http://www.cdv.deCDV for further info.

That's a long list Paplan, with plenty of good games. I'll vote for RT3.
