hi ppl, I&#39;m looking for some really good pc strategy games that have a more economical and envirornment aspect instead of fighting that a mediocre home pc can run (getting upgrades soon <_< ) and any other strategy games where you are like an emporor but you manage rules and pollution and stuff, sorta like sim city but with fighting involved. Know any? :rolleyes:

and no turn-based crap either :rolleyes:

mmm, have both, as for the environment, i mean lets say if you build somethings, it&#39;ll have effects on the surronding area, like pollution or stuff, sorta like what goes on the ground in starcraft when you build zerg buildings, and i&#39;m looking for a unique-like game.

Don&#39;t play Total Annihilation: Kingdoms.

Play the original, its much better.

Get Shogun: Total War. Real tactics in there.

The new one would be Rome

and FYI Total war isnt a own game its just the name of the series e.g. Shogun:Total War, Medieval: Total War, Rome: Total War :)

I was playing StarTrek Armada 2 at a friends house the other day, even if you hate Trek that game is pretty damn sweet.

ok althought the single player is turn based the multiplayer of civilization 3 is not. If you dont mind playing online civ3 is proably your best bet. Also homeworld 2 is pretty good

I personally haven&#39;t played it, but Starcraft seems to be a good game. Maybe someone here has played it and can comment further on it.

Dude you need to play it, it&#39;s probably one of the best RTS games to date.
Fairly cheap now, if you actually want to own a the cd, if not, download it.
You will not regret it.
