Anyone recommend some good strat games?
Already have Company of heroes and Sins of a solar empire
These games are great but can get boring quick
Already looking into starcraft 2 and dawn of war
Just trying to find some good strat games that are recommended

Oversized signature is oversized.
It should be not bigger then 700*250, as I remember.
When it comes to games, I usually recommend the oldschool stuff from Cossacs/Cossacs 2 to the Heroes-like games of the ancient ages.
Or you can try "Stalin versus Martians".

Total War; either Medieval, Empire or Napoleon.
You could also try old ones like... Age of Empires/Mythology, Command and Conquer, Star Wars Empire at War (or wayyy back to Rebellion or Galactic Battlegrounds :ylove:) of course Starcraft original is always a good choice too, or Warcraft if you don't mind single powerful units.

Codename: Panzers Phase 1
Codename: Panzers Phase 2
Codename: Panzers Cold War (dunno if this one was finished and released to public)
The first two were the first strategy games I played and I still consider them to be the best WW2 related games.
Also, the Total War series are very good (the only thing I don't like is the lack of historical accuracy for the Medieval 1 and 2).
And Sins of a Solar Empire. I just got it and it's nice (mostly cause I find it a bit hard)... oh, you already have this one. Try Homeworld or Nexus... for space adventures.

' Wrote:I can only agree. Cossacks games rock.The first thing to do in the first Cossacs' multiplayer was to turn off Diplomacy center; or the game tended to end 5 minutes later with Dragoons' rush.

There is a Peace Time option with the Art Of War add-on.

1. world in conflict. <--- best strategic game I ever played so.
- 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.
2. men of war. <--- very tactical thinking or you are sure to die.
- Close combat
- both 3th person and the normal overview camera
- manual aiming
- kinda like commando's but then nicer.
3. Total war games.
- if you like massive historic battles? go for these.
4. TBN - Freelancer - Freeworlds mod
- yes, they are working on a total strat cam mode/ NPC controling stuff.

It still can turn into rush due to slightly unbalanced nature of mercentary Dragoons; or the Peace Time should be really long and make some players complain about boredom.
