Strategy games introduced

[Skybird]

Here the tankers have a multi-page thread going introducing strategy games to the other guys. Maybe there are some games you did not know so far!? Good pages to wade through.

P.S. The thread features comopute rgames and tabletop/map&counter games as well. Interesting stuff to be discovered.

The ultimate classic strategy game: Civilization 2 !

I still play it! Simple graphics but unbeatable gameplay.


The naval units in its 'modern' era are nicely balanced and can be played infinitely:

Battleship = most powerful unit in direct combat, but becomes somewhat obsolete as cruise missiles are introduced

AEGIS Cruiser = not as strong as a battleship, but very resistant to aircraft and missile attacks.

Submarine = invisible 'glass cannon'. You'll sink most naval units if you attack first, but they'll usually sink you if they see you/attack you first. Subs are also able to carry cruise and nuclear missiles.

There's also: aircraft carrier, transport ships, Cruiser, and Destroyer, etc. units.


Awesome game.
