"Five freeware strategy games too good to miss"


Recommended Posts

Eurogamer has written an article about 5 strategy games they believe should be played by everyone. There's a brief comment about the titles along with links to the official pages of each game. The titles are:

  • The Battle For Wesnoth
  • UFO: Alien Invasion
  • C-Evo
  • 1848
  • Cry Havoc: Test of Faith

If you're not too busy being alanschu or Llyranor, you can follow the link and read up on those titles.

UFO: Alien Invasion
I used to keep my eye on that one for some time... I didn't know they had made so much progress!

 

d/l'ing now. :thumbsup:

In pursuit of a more challenging, more skill-based experience, Steffen has spurned scripting and random ingredients like barbarian tribes, and built a goal-guided AI almost as flexible as a human player. The design approach allows smart fans to have a go at fashioning their own AIs. These homemade brains can even be pitted against each other on the same map. Clever stuff.

I have a lot of trouble being alanshu.

Being alanschu is a bit easier, you may want to try that :dancing:

That must be what I'm doing wrong!

 

Reminds me of the dyslexic agnostic insomniac ... lying awake all night wondering if there really is a dog ... :thumbsup:

Yeah, UFO: Alien Invasion seems to have come a long way. I kept up with the project through some support on their forums when they started out, but eventually I moved on and completely forgot about them.

 

I would give the game a chance now if I wasn't drowning in work.

I was alanschu for a couple of days, but the cream from my doctor cleared it right up.

So this dyslexic man walks into a bra...
