red alert 2 was the only good strategy game because you could make your little men disguise themselves as cows to infiltrate enemy strongholds

oh age of empires was cool too for the cheat that gave you sports cars with machine guns as units

Because the good ones (Civ 4) are actually extremely cool and fun. Beyond Earth will probably be like Civ 5 in that it is an alright game to play and relax with but won't have much depth.

playing a board game online sounds miserable.

the appeal of board games with real people is you can punch them when they dick you over.

I have a fetish for hexes, so I will be playing this soon.

If previous games are any indication, I may not be sleeping this weekend.

Some gamers such as me prefer the extra challenge of 1 unit per tile... Other's prefer Civ 4 where you spam all your guys into a giant stack and inexorably destroy everyone.

that's a nice city you have here. *lines entire army into a single space turns city into a parking lot* your move.

Not sure if I'm gonna buy it now or wait until an expansion comes along and makes it good like Civ V

the first civ game i played was civnet and i found out that i could send diplomats to other cities and since they weren't military units, they wouldn't be attacked. i put diplomats on every square in the city's range and the city couldn't work the tile anymore. so it would starve.

Is there any 4x or map game that was good out of the box before any expansions?

Civ2 I guess?
