OT: Any good strategy games?

[SuperKungFu]

I want a good modern-day strategy game. The last one I played (which was pretty fun) was Command and Conquer Generals: zero hour, I was wondering do any of you boys play anything similar where you get to control small aircrafts and such. I’m going to try out Act of War: Direct Action and Joint Task Force today, are there any other games out there that’s similar to command and conquer? Most of these games today you can’t control a fleet of aircraft, you can only radio them in.

Google Supreme Commander

 

Its a game where developers had redefined RTS's.

Nothing here, sorry. I never really liked command and conquer ZO. I could suggert company of heros, but that's WWII and I do believe that you can only radio in aircraft.

C&C 3 with Grace Park and Tricia Helfer :chair: I said that b/c they raped C&C right with Generals, and now they have Warhammered it 40000 times, and now it sucks.

Yeah heard this is good. Also War Hammer 40K is excellant too. Also have a look here http://www.battlefront.com/index.htm for Theatre of War not released yet.

But most of these are not modern-day era.

It's coming out on 19th of April. It can be preordered now for 10$ less (although they charge at once). When it comes out, you can download it from their site and receive a copy by mail a few days later. Cool thing since you don't have to wait for it to arrive and still get a hard-copy.

Hmmm Not that realistic. Just been looking at the Falklands War and it shows a mechanised attack. This never happened, certainly not on the scale they are showing anyway.

lol i have that game but stopped because that's not exactly modern-day, pretty futuristic. I want something within this time era.

Not exactly modern times, but Medieval 2: Total War will blow you away. There are hundreds of hours to be spend on this one.

[Pilotasso]

Oh man, my brother plays that game hours on end (keeping me from coming online with LOMAC) and it makes me completely sleepy. Its like chloform for me. DUnno why.

[MBot]

You have to catch him at a moment when all dimplomacy fails and he dukes it out on the battlefield with 10'000 men deployed. You might like that :)

[EagleEye]

There are i.e. Apaches, Harriers, Black Hawks and Alligatores in Joint Task Force!

Don`t much like these type of games but had lot of fun with the demo and a money cheat.

[Frostie]

Company of Heroes is WW2, but it is a totally awesome RTS.

Joint Task Force RTS is a complete mess, gameplay is annoying. Save time, don't bother with it. It just looks good on cinematic screenshots that's all. You can't get these kind of screenshots in the final game. Camera is locked from above on like 30mx20m terrain.
