Default Re: Is Space Empires IV the Most Addictive Game Ever?

The first game to enthral me was Kampfgruppe. Does anyone remember that one? Played it on my 8 bit Atari and when I think back, I believe I would still enjoy it today. Graphics were pretty good (considering the pixels were the size of your hand) and the game play had a strategic flavor. Others on my list, Empires, Civ 2, Heros of Might and Magic, SEIII. But they all pale next to my favorite-- chesterfield rugby.

Grandpa Kim, If you like Kampfgruppe, go to Matrixgames.com, they have a lot of the older games for free download in the windows format, war in russia, kampgruppe, and more

just some ideas mac

The games that have stolen most of my precious time:
EU1 and 2 (Europa Universalis)
Civ 2
Minesweeper (Yes that pesky little Windows thingy)

SEIV is not up there yet, but I just joined PBW so who knows ?
