Do any of you use any hardware gaming aids when you play your RTS games - such as the Strategic Commander, zboards, Saitek gaming keyboards, etc? Are there any really good peripherals out there that help manage your RTS games?

Don't use them. I don't play enough to need them.
The mouse and keyboard will do for everything bar flight sims - there's no need to invest in extra equipment.
Hello CybrGamr,
I only use mouse and keyboard.
so do i...
keyboard and mouse for me as well. Well those and one of my kids to keep me properly stocked with food and drink. There's no point in conquering the world if I end up dying of starvation or dehydration, now is there?
I looked up the "Strategic Commander". What is that supposed to do 0_o?
Anyway, I have a good mouse (logitec mx518), and a decent keyboard. It's all you need. Well, a monitor helps, too.
Here is a good review of it:

It allows you to very quickly access functions in RTS games by recording them on the fly and then mapping them directly to buttons on the controller. The controller also allows you to move around the screen.
I cant really imagine playing a TW game witha controller it jsut seems way to confusing. Im happy just to play with my keyboard and mouse :yes:
