I'm mostly a console guy but I've missed RTS games lately. I'll be playing them primarily on my laptop. It's a Toshiba, with Intel Core Duo CPU T5450 @ 1.66 GHz 1.67 GHz. 2 gigs of RAM. I have no idea what my video card is. I also run Vista on here. Anyway, with the above information, what PC strategy games can you guys reccommend that will run on low-to-medium settings? I like the Total War series, but I also don't mind resoruce-gathering games like StarCraft and such.
Hmm plenty of them, look for RTS that debuts prior to 2005...or maybe 2004. I think your laptop should be ok. Apart from the obvious WC3, you can also try Star Wars : Empire at War. If you don't mind Turn-based strategy, games like Civilisation series and especially Galactic Civilisation 2 should be must-haves.
Command & conquer: Generals and the Zero hour expansion pack. Together it makes for a decent game. Cheap. Doesn't need too much from your computer. Remains pretty challenging. It's a pretty good game and a nice expansion that fits it well.
Dawn of War, DoW Winter Assault, DoW Dark Crusade, DoW Soulstorm... All have very low requirements... and are newish 2004, 2006, 2007, 2008... they are all pretty good games...
