RTS + city builder thread

TBS like Civilization or more like XCOM?

Possibly none lel
I'd say Company of Heroes but heard it doesn't have that much basebuilding and I didn't play it personally

More like Fantasy Wars/Elven Legacy. Or maybe Age of Wonders 1 - 2/SM (one of my favourites), though it had weird simultaneous turns option.

CoH is the gold standard, and its awesome.

Pharaoh has so much soul. I still have the manual around somewhere, it's a book that's something like 300 pages long and it finishes with a paragraph along the lines of "We hope you enjoy playing Pharaoh long into the future"

I played a lot of CoH, but didn't really like 2. I want a new game if I'm going to play something so I'm just interested if there's anything good since, not the best.

I get what you're saying, but
>age of empires 3
