I have never played that one. Is it on North Africa?

patrickl -> RE: Top 10 wargames... (2/11/2007 4:43:45 PM)
No, it is on Gaudalcanal and the Solomon Islands as per your signature.[:D] Made by Microprose- a surface action simulation.[;)] Pat

sapper_astro -> RE: Top 10 wargames... (2/11/2007 5:14:52 PM)
Hmm. 1)CC3 2)Great War in the East (SSG) 3)Carriers at war 1 and 2 4)Conquest of the Aegean 5)Panzer general 2 Plenty more, and probably needs a reshuffle, but this lists 5 of the Wargames I have played the most. Surely that means they are the best to me, no?

Ok. Either I never heard of it or I forgot about it. Sounds like it was interesting.[:)] quote: ORIGINAL: patrickl No, it is on Gaudalcanal and the Solomon Islands as per your signature.[:D] Made by Microprose- a surface action simulation.[;)] Pat

Hmm... I'm not good at wargames, but here is my list, in no particular order 1. Dominions 3 2. Europa Universalis 2/3 (and HOI 2) 3. Medieval Total War 1/2 4. Galactic Civilizations 1/2 (with new expansion pack) 5. UFO: Afterlight and Aftershock (Squad based lite!)/X-com series 6. Conquest of the Aegean 7. Silent Hunter III 8. Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War series (yes, I know it is RTS) 9. Warlords series (including Battlecry) 10. Age of Magic/Master of Magic As far as board games go, there really are only 4 major wargames for me: 1. Twilight Imperium 2. Diplomacy (6 hours to lose/win by backstabbing your friends) 3. Risk 4. Cults Across America (Lovecraftian Risk-clone)

Fire in the East GDW Hanibal AH Am Civil War Victory Games Terrible Swift Sword TSR Highway To the Reich Victory Games World In Flames 5th Edition ADG Total War ROME Activision Total War Sho-Gun Activision Total War Medieval War Activision 1/300 scale WWII armor miniatures The three computer games by Activision are pretty good. World in Flames is my active favorite. Terrible Swift Sword was made by another company before TSR Victory Games were pretty good. I left out the games that got me into the hobby, like SPI's Sniper and Napoleon's Last Battles Quad Game or AH's Panzer Blitz or Panzer Leader.

ravinhood -> RE: Top 10 wargames... (3/5/2007 5:42:59 PM)
Only really two board wargames I ever really liked and wanted to play over n over. 1. Of course Squad Leader (the origional) 2. Swords & Sorcery (this was an excellent monster fantasy rpg wargame it had three ways to play. Armies vs armies, Armies & Heroes vs Armies & Heroes and Heroes Vs Heroes while playing armies & heroes vs Armies & heroes. You could even go questing while fighting the wargame to get the random power item in the game. That's what was neat no two games or wars were ever the same. Killer Penquins from the North could disrupt or destroy entire army groups on EITHER side. Vortex like tornadoes that could sweep thru raging battles and toss armies all over the map. One of the best fantasy board wargames I ever played. Wish someone had brought something like that to the computer.

Hmmm, in their day ... Third Reich Squad Leader Dauntless Risk/Supremacy Panzer Leader/Blitz Midway/Coral Sea Starship Troopers Ogre/Gev Air Cobra Nuclear War (What a blast!) Some fine computer games: The Operational Art of War Carrier Force Age of Empires Medieval Total War Gettysburg (SSI) Empire Mechforce (Amiga) much like Titans of Steel V For Victory series Falcon 1.5 Close Combat

Kevin E. Duguay -> RE: Top 10 wargames... (3/7/2007 8:06:34 AM)
Advanced Squad Leader is still one of the best. I for one still buy the modules and mags especially the historical ones. (great maps). Alesia was another great game. Hope in the future to set it up and give it a whirle. Starship Troopers was just as good.[:)]
