I'm going to throw my favourite out there - Galactic Civilizations (Specifically, numero 2 with a complete set of expansions).

So lovely. I'm downloading demo and the speed is good.
Seems to be more or less a perfect game.
EDIT: I tried it and it's so awesome.

' Wrote:1. world in conflict. <--- best strategic game I ever played so.This
- Of course cold war conflict gone bad.
- tons of details and nice effects. (one of the best explosions I have seen in a strat game so far)
- No base building
- units drop in by planes
- lots of possible aids.
Its the action junkie's RTS.
More focus on Teamplay
More focus on micro-management and unit control/effectiveness
Great Game
Not to mention. Massive Entertainment did a steller job on the cinematic department.

Actually, what bothers me most are Mercenary Cossacks.
Horsemen galloping all around the map, their sabres swirling while they travel at insane speed making you wonder "why the hell didn't I hire Pikemen ?"

Mercentary cossacks were fun, but against any descent defence they used to die like flies. At the same time it was always a joy to hire them right when your main forces are breaching the defence perimeter of hostile city and send the swarm in to completely destroy the infrastructure.
I can't remember another rts that really allowed you to use defences and spend hours in assaults on one's fortresses - as well as to play in more common way.

What I particularly like in this game is the possibility of ravaging the enemy's city with a dozen of light cavalrymen. That and archers:smile2:

The guys and I play a lot of SoaSe with several mods,maps we make ourselves,and some mods we tweek ourselves,just to keep it interesting.

Depends on the style of strategy game you are looking for. If you want RTS try Company of Heroes or the Dawn of War series. If you are more turn based, Civilization is the standard for a reason. If you arent a graphicswhore and prefer a grander scale try the Hearts of Iron series. STEEP learning curve, but oh so satisfying to march your Panzers into New York.
