Help me fill up my laptop !!!

[Blacklight]

Okay. I just freed up 14 gigs of space on my slightly older laptop, a 1.6 GHZ, AMD Semperon 3300+ with one gig of ram.

I'm looking for some great games (emphasis on wargames and good military simulations. Text based sims are fun as well. I LOVE retro games as well) to fill this puppy up. DosBox and a Commadore 64 and an Atari 2600 emullators installed in case I want to go retro as well.

How about a list of suggestions of cool games ! Maybe I'll discover something new !

The games I play the most on here are:
Harpoon 3 Advanced Naval Warfare
Total Extreme Wrestling 2005
Extreme Warfare Revenge
All the Sonalysts sub sims including Fleet Command
Steel Panthers: Main Battle Tank
Steel Beasts Gold
Allied General
Fighting Steel
The Operational Art of War III
Incubation
A CRAPLOAD of interactive fiction including all the old Infocom titles
A collection of chess engines and the Arena client to play them
Buzz Aldrin's Race Into Space
Light Cycle: Game grid Champions (FUN time waster)
Third Reich PC
Fith Fleet
A capload of old dos wargames from the early 90's. Too many to type
Puresim Baseball (It just got released as freeware. I don't even like baseball, but the game is fun)
Orbiter with a few hundred addons
SpaceProbe
Noctis
Begin2
Fleet Tactical Combat
Uplink
I just found an old copy of Silent Hunter II (Silent Hunter III won't run on this thing) and put it in. Unfortunately, I lost the manual for it so I'm blindly clicking my way through it and trying to wade through the differences between II and III. I have Destroyer Command too (Also manualless. I think a lot of that "extra stuff like manuals" got lost in my last move.
Harpoon Classic Commanders Edition (no reason I have this. Just in there in case I want to play a simpler Harpoon)
Forgotten Realms Universal Adventures with a ton of mods

Believe it or not, I play with all of these games all the time. I have something for every mood and I want more !

Suggestions ? Reccomendations ? This laptop is my mobile entertainment so the only catch is that the games need to be controlable by keyboard and mouse. No joysticks or game pads.

Thank you in advance for your reccomendations ! :DL

Seeing you like wargames I cant recommend enough for you to get the Close Combat games. Very good games, best of it's genre hands-down.

Some like the older ones, CC1-3, but the thing I dont like in them is the linear campaign. In CC4 & CC5 you get an strategic map to move your soldiers between the sectors.

As I said, HIGHLY recommended and will keep you busy for a long time and then abit more with mods. :yeah:

Combat Mission series is pretty good too, kinda like CC but turn based and maybe abit more technical when it comes to tanks etc.

Yeah. I like turn based wargames a LOT better than the real time strategy ones (Aside from maybe Harpoon, and Highway to the Reich and Conquest of the Agean). Those meatgrinder games where you build structures to build units and then just overrun the opponent with units (Warcraft, Command and Conquer, etc..) do nothing for me. I find them a bit too...arcade for my tastes. I was raised on those board wargames with the hexes and 100000000 cardboard counters all over the place and also historical miniatures with model scenery. You know.. I may have a copy of a couple of the "Close Combat" titles or at least the first one kicking around in my game closet. I'll have to go look.

With regard to other games, get one or all of the Combat Mission x 1 series (CMBO, CMBB & CMAK).

Tiller's HPS games are also worthy of consideration. The engine for most if not all of his games was designed to run on a P-II.
