Hi

I'm real new at grand strategy..I'm playing my first one which is Europa Universalis 3 ..I'm a real rookie at these..I've played of coarse the civ games but I'm talking more complexity..

Just curious if anyone enjoys this type of game and which are you playing?

I guess you are talking about 4x games. Galactic Civilizations 2 is awesome. Diplomacy in that game rocks. It doesn't feel like you are playing just to kill everybody else, because you don't have to.

What is 4x?

I like Victoria: An Empire Under the Sun and the expansion Victoria: Revolutions.

Space Empires V has a lot of potential but it still has a few too many bugs/exploits/as yet unimplemented features to fully recommends. Maybe in one or two more patch cycles.

I used to dig Disciples II and Emperor of the Fading Suns a lot too.

EDIT: Oh yeah, ignore the recommendations for Company of Heroes. As I'm sure you're aware, it's got nothing to do with the realm of grand strategy.
