toxicTom: Yeah, those were the levels I couldn't beat. Every time I went to hunt for resources that $important_guy was kidnapped. One of the few games I actually rage-quit-deleted. :-)
Heh... yeah, very understandable :-) Plus, those levels were looooong, and there is no save feature.

toxicTom: Never played it, so I wasn't sure. But there's also . <a href="http://www.gog.com/forum/general/conversational_freeforall_thread/post90692" class="link_arrow"></a></div> Me neither...that's why i was asking. Actually like the idea of having some action or FPS elements int RTSs...that's why i enjoyed [url=https://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/rise-fall-civilizations-at-war]Rise&amp;Fall to some degree.
Actually never heard of Uprising before...

Vnlr: Agent, EIT, I find you guilty of continuous mention of the C&C 4 game ... don't you know what "Damnatio Memoriae" means?

I do not think too much of the C&C games anymore though, my RTS interests lie elsewhere these days :)
*Oogling "Domino Memorial"* ...

So where exactly do your RTS interest lie now?

That's the reason why I don't even dare to give the game another try. Long time between saves is just not compatible to my life any more. It's also one reason why I can't play flight simulators nowadays (the other one being the amount of learning necessary).

*waffle with the giant rubbery chicken-shaped morningstar* (*selling somebody a waffle = slapping somebody)

I played it for an hour or two, and gave up then ... I bought it for 2 euri during a sale luckily.

Tiberian sun is my personal favourite, but Yuri's revenge was great too ...

Sorry :)
Yep. Gameplay-wise Red Alert 2 and thus Yuri's Revenge were really good but the story was way weaker compared to the earlier C&C games...

"Damnatio Memoria" means roughly, to be condemned from memory, or something like: to be erased from history or collective memory for his crimes, or to be punished by being forgotten after his death, without any mention in the historical reccords.

Mostly stuff like Wargame, Kohan, Sudden strike, Myth, Empire Earth, Rise of Legends, Cossacks, seven kingdoms; and a few others.

edit:
Speaking of empire earth ... It's about time I played a game after these 4 deprived weeks ...

I'm off for a bit of empire earth! :D

Received pretty stellar reviews when it came out, but didn't sell well. It still got a sequel which was also praised by the reviewers and the handful of people who actually played (iirc).

Really good selection :)
A shame that we still lack most of them here. Never played Kohan and Myth though but i'd love to....but at least Myth doesn't seem to be available digitally...

Damn hard drive. Do you want me to ask Agent to burn it for you? :-)

But on a serious note, I am sorry to hear that. Will you be able to backup your data before it dies?

*big comforting hug*

Well that's a shame. Because it looks interesting. But that probably explain why there aren't any Action-RTS anymore not to mention that the RTS-genre is not necessarily one of the most popular genres nowadays....

It is already dead. It is not that much of a problem. I have all data on a second hard disk, so nothing important is lost. But it is *** annoying... just spent the last hour installing the OS on the second disk... and now I need to update again everything... meh
*big return hug*

Myth is frustratingly hard, and that's not just the RTS-inept me saying that :-)

That is good to hear that you did not lose anything. But it is annoying that you have to reinstall everything. But at least now it is dead Agent can burn it down for you. :-)

*big hug with a cuddly panda teddy to cheer you up*
