Well... summer is coming up and I'm looking for a new game to keep me entertained. My favorite game genre is strategy. I also like simulation type games. Just so you can kind of get a feel for what type of games I like, here is a list of my favorites and why I like them.

1. Starcraft 2: Very fun RTS.

2. Skyrim: Love the open world and character building aspects.

3. Minecraft: I eventually got sick of this game but I really liked the freedom and creativity of it.

4. Civilization V: I was hesitant to put this one down because I think that it is too simple. I get kinda bored with it.

5. Rome Total War: Love the Campaign map strategy and the RTS strategy however, I can't stand the awful diplomacy.

Ok, so know that you know what type of gamer I am, let me tell you what I'm looking for. I am wanting a strategy multiplayer game that involves leveling up. I've considered LeagueOfLegends but I wish that the levels you gained would carry over to other games. Please don't mention browser based games or games like Kingdoms of Camelot. Oh ya, I also LOVE player based economies. I tried playing EVE Online and I thought it was interesting but the spreadsheets started to bore me; I like hands on things. Anyways, if you know of any games that fit one or more of these aspects please let me know what they are.
