Turn Base Strategies

Postby TheLoneTerran » Thu Feb 02, 2006 10:09 pm

Does anyone else love them other than me? I love Moo2, Moo3, Civ IV, HoI, Victoria. All these are excellent pick ups. You can get Moo2 for 3$(Buy it, awsome) Moo3 for about 10$ and HoI, Victoria, and 4 others in a pack for about 20$. Civ IV still really expensive.

Son, I've been a fan of Turn based strats long before you were born and they ever existed on computers or in digitized formats. SL FTW!!

I will always be a fan of Battletech. No matter what they do to try and make just a little more money out of it.

Gunther, taking turns throwing rocks at each other did not, and still does not involve strategy. Though i'm glad to see you survived the Pre-Helmet Era. :lol: Old people.

Turn based games are dead, i'm sad to say. Civ only rehashes what has been. The CS kiddies don't have time to think! They gotta click click click now now now!!!one

Btw, check this out. It's a blast from my past, seriously it might cause brain damage. Don't for the love of god download anything. Just check out the categories, see if you remember the games or the themes songs on the pages. Can anyone guess the theme for flight sims?

I found that last site while searching for this. Old but good turnbased game. Good luck finding it. And do not under any circumstances play the sequel. You have been warned.

You laugh. I can recall one time when I was of High School age, some friends and I built a wooden "fort" structure thing that resembled a machine gun nest or pill box. One of our more stupid members of our crew (ME!!) came up with a fantastic (hair-brained) idea to one at a time climb inside the "Pillbox" while everyone else threw rocks at the person inside. No, we were not :smt033

I refuse to admit that. I absolutely refuse to admit that and it is a horrible thing to say. Love TBS games, they shall never die.

Did anyone bother looking at that fantastically out of date site i found? He's using the Airwolf theme on the flight sims page. It seems that this is one of two things that no one wants to remember from the early 90's. Websites that looked like this, and the awkward first steps of rap "music". I swear, if people remembered how silly rappers once looked, maybe they wouldn't take it so seriously now.
I am the thing that goes "post" in the night.

Back in the 80s every band had a costume of sorts even the rappers, well everyone except kiss who had dropped the make up by then and gone big hair.

I didn't realize rappers changed. They still look silly to me. I can't belive that Bullet Proof Vests are in style. You know some moronic mindless dolt is going to think that bullets can't touch him when he wears a Gucci Vest or whoever makes these knock-off fads.
