i like deep strategy. i don't like point and click rush/build rts.

i'm eagerly awaiting empire total war, and am trying to get my hands on Ageod's civil war.

any more suggestions?

If you like space strategy games at all, then Galactic Civilizations 2 is a must-have. I just picked up the Ultimate Edition (which is the base game plus both expansion packs) a few days ago, and am definitely enjoying it so far. :yes:

Sword of the stars is good fun. Total war in space with technology advancement :3

Crusader Kings + expansion Deus Vult (Middle Ages (1060 to 1450 or so), dealing with vassals, dynastic planning, crusades, pagans, church, etc etc)

Europa Universalis 2 or Europa Universalis 3: Complete edition (From Middle Ages (1350 or sorts) to Napoleon's time (1836?), discoveries, colonization, trade, imperialism, etc.)

Victoria: An empire under the sun + expansion Victoria: Revolutions (From the beginning of Industrialism (1836) to the interbellum period (1936); Industrialism, economy, colonization, globalism, ideologies, revolutions, techonology)

Hearts of Iron 2: Doomsday + expansion Hearts of Iron 2: Armaggedon (From the beginning of the build-up for WW2 (1936) to the height of the cold war (1960 or so); Warfare, strategy, terrain, combat, ideologies, domination)

The correct times (For those interested) are:
CK: DV - 1066 ->1453
EUIII - 1399 ->1820

And I have to also suggest EUIII - I just started replaying it with Magna Mundi Platinum again.

Ok, much more a tactics game but still apparently the best battfield experience out there.

XIII th century death or glory looks like an amzing game.
