Without the story, I found that none of the post winter crusade ones very good for the Dawn of War I. Granted, Soul Storm was by far the worst and least intresting.

On another note, we have all been hitting Civ 4 Beyond the Sword a lot recently and I'm going to try and get a all human game going tomorrow, Sunday the 9th, if anyone wants to join us.

I'm down for Civ 4, we can probably get 4most/KIA in for a game as well, stalker too probably. Probably get a few more and we could reenact the freaking cold war with nukes. :awesome:

Galactic Civilizations 2 Deluxe is $10 over on Impulse. Think Civ 4 in space with the best noncheating AI I've ever seen, crazy amounts of customizability within the game and thousands of mods. I haven't played this in years, but if some others want to get on board, I'll be up for some games.

No doubt its a great game, I already owned the orginal, but I bought the pack to pick up the expansions. So everyone should pick it up. HOWEVER, I should point out that there is no multiplayer modes that I know of, beyond a metaverse where you can post you game.

The RTS Club will be hosting a midweek tournment with a few small prizes.

We will be playing a free turn based game called Battle for Wesnoth, which you can get here

--->http://www.wesnoth.org/

It will begin at 7pm Central Time Wensday, people will meet in the RTS Club chatroom in steam. I will determine the time of tournment that day, either elimination or round robin style. There will be a turn time limit set in game. To signup just post on the RTS Club (steam group headed by KIA and I) wall. You can also showup the day of, but I won't wait around for you if your not signed up.

The winner will recieve a copy of Sacraboar.

Everyone who enters and participates will be entered into a drawing for Ghost Master.

The prizes are small, but this is just some friendly games and I may end up doing a larger one over the weekend.

I lol'd. RTS = Real Time Strategy and the bold above contradicts to that.


Other than that, I have:
-Company Of Heroes Opposing Fronts
- Dawn of War 2 Chaos Rising
-Sins of a Solar Empire
-All Civilizations IV games.
-Starcraft
-Command & Conquer : Wrath of Kane
-Universe at War.
- Age of Empires 3
-Demigod

And most RTS games arn't actually RTS games, instead they are RTT = think before you talk

It is just a term people know.

RTT is a subgenre of RTS so technically RTT is a part of RTS = think before you talk.

Also I suggest a small game of company of heroes since many of us have it.
No prizes or contests, it's just have some fun.

I will probably play in the tournment since theres not much judging, but if I play it won't upset the balance any, ie I'll play everyone or I'll play the last match in a elimination,

To Tampa I suggest ->

From Wiki =

Genre List

Strategy 4X game · Artillery game · Real-time strategy (Tower defense · Multiplayer online battle arena) · Real-time tactics · Turn-based strategy · Turn-based tactics · Wargame

Real-time tactics or RTT is a subgenre of tactical wargames played in real-time simulating the considerations and circumstances of operational warfare and military tactics.

While some publications do refer to "RTT" as a distinct sub-genre of real-time strategy or strategy, not all publications do so. Further, precise terminology is inconsistent.

I'm sorry if I bit your head off for the earlier remark, but this misnomer annoys me.

I have Civ 4 and I think doghouse got me to download gameranger, but I've not installed it. I'm up for a game of Civ 4 but I don't really have any other RTS games apart from the likes of C&C: Tiberium Wars and Kane's Wrath, and Red Alert 3.

If you had put your Steam ID in the forums I would have been in it ages ago, but since you haven't and I'm the sort of person who doesn't like searching through hundreds of people to find one person I'm not. But the thing is your night is usually my early morning, not so much of a problem now that I've finished college but it would be a lot better if you could do it in the afternoons, which would be my night.

I really think we need to set up a tournament in a game most of us have just for fun. No prizes or anything, just bragging rights. I propose Starcraft or Company of Heroes.
