world conquest games

world conquest games

I have allways found world conquest games interesting. What I mean is the games where you choose a country and than build up your economy, army..etc and attack other countries and take em over.

I am jsut wondering, those anyone know of an good game like this? A few years ago I d/l a demo of one, but fight game play..was just ugly..ugh. So anyone know of a new age game that fits this description?

Rise of Nations, Rome: Total War, and any of the Civilization series.

Google 'em and check them out. Anyone else got any more?

Rise of Nations
Civilisation III
Rome: Total War... well part of the world
Supreme Commander (when it comes out)

All of these I know to be excellent, except Supreme Commander which I can only presume to be excellent.

EDIT: Yeah, what Aceaz said

I played Rize of Nations, and I got Rome: Total War, neither of em have what i am talking about. Never checked Civilization or Supreme Commander..so those might have what I am looking for...I get back to ya once trials are downloaded

anyhow, what I mean is that its a "today’s" day world. You build up your nation, and attack all those around it. You also have control over economy, military etc. I am just in a need of an very challenging and interesting strategy game, I played some kind of demo about world conquest a few years ago. Name forgotten, but i do know that even tho graphics sucked major time...game play was interesting..so I am just hopping that someone might know of a new age game (better graphics) with a similar game play

gah, I ask a lot don’t I??

EDIT: damn mistakes...looked like I was drunk o.O

You might not get along with Civilisation then, it's a similar concept to Rise of Nations, passing through the ages and stuff.

Uh, I got nothing.

Hmm. Oh, just be happy with Rome, it's a perfectly awesome game.

well there is master of orion, that sounds like what you are looking for but it is a space game, so I dont think it counts as "today's" type world lol.

Civ II was my favourite. That thing had me hooked for months.

Post Wed Oct 12, 2005 5:32 pm

lol, I heard of Civ, but never really went and played it...at one time was about to get it, but went for AOE..looked better ^^

Well, I am d/l Master of Orion III, it seems to be interesting. As atreides mentioned..its not like world game I talked about, but it seems like an very interesting strategy game none the less. Hehe as for Populous..deffinetly needs a graphics buff

earlier today I went for the good ol' original world conquest strategy game..RISK!!

Well I d/l Risk II trial, didnt check it out yet...gonna go for MOO first

EDIT: tried Risk II.....no comment, lets say it did not stay on my hard drive for too long

Thinking about it, Spore might also be akin to your megalomanical desires. Should be available next year if it doesn't slip... much.

Post Thu Oct 13, 2005 12:42 pm

the game spore is a very interesting concept, its the literal verse of the word "Godgame"

Post Thu Oct 13, 2005 2:47 pm

godgame?

hmm, aint Black and White something similar to that? I dont know if its strategy? RPG maybe? but the fact u can just kill em all is too good to miss, I will proly be getting that ^^

also, the Masters of Orion is interesting! TOTAL CONTROL! But....damn it..my 60min trial is done (

And yea, Evil Genious is fun, lol I forgot all about that one
