Imperialism

Defined Panzer.

YES! Did you ever master Imperialism II? I just couldn't get the hang of it and kept running out of cash before getting any economy set up. Ah, but that first one is a beauty of turn based economics and set piece battles.

For my own contribution to the thread, I still love Lords of Magic for the diverse fantasy elements, balance of factions and classes that make it possible to literally win with any combination (although some are much more challenging than others), and the real time combat. The game did suffer from non randomized battlefields, so you get to fight on the same terrain or in the same dungeon over and over again, and the AI is unpredictable, so as a turn based game it can be either very hard or very easy depending on how your neighbors treat you. I'd love to see it updated to current graphics and AI capabilities. It plays very similarly to the Total War games, but is a fantasy setting instead.
