              I liked Starcraft most. If I had a time to play games all night, I would try Warcraft III. Pavel Sonork 100.15206

                Civilisation II - the best turn based strategy game ever. Michael Programming is great. First they pay you to introduce bugs into software. Then they pay you to remove them again.

                    AOE rocks, but for a game played between friends, nothing can beat Diablo 2, with expansion set! Start with a barbarian, once you get the game, try a sorceress or necromancer:-D The following statement about your geekness is true.

Well, chess was introduced to me one recess in the 4th grade by a friend at the time. And, it just happens to be that chess and working out are the two things my birth father (who I rarely see) seem to be able to do and talk about if we actually see each other once a decade.

                            Big AOE fan! Looking forward Age of Mythology due out this fall.:-D For a slight change Star Wars Galactic Battleground is pretty good. Same general game play as AOE, with different different setting/ civs/ etc. Plus air units, are kind of cool. It's actually based on the AOE engine. BW {insert witty/thought-provoking saying here}

You are better off playing against human opponents. The computer AI is very poor, so poor that I can play against 7 computer opponents on hard and still win easily. Michael Programming is great.

Hard, is still a challenge for me sometimes, though, at least in AOK(conquerors). BW {insert witty/thought-provoking saying here}

                                    Warcraft 3. Blizzard corners the market on strategy games. I would choose Starcraft second. But I've always loved the Warcraft theme more...
