Age of Wonders, King of Dragon Pass, Darwinia, and other strategy classics up to 80% off!

We know that you like to be in charge. We know that you like that feeling of power and the constant pressure of one life-and-death decision after another. Whether you are in the battlefield, commanding your troops, in a warlord's tent deciding the life and death of your subjects, or in a city hall, placing miniature buildings on a map--you flourish. Leadership is your element. Knowing that, we've prepared a [url=http://www.gog.com/promo/strategy_games_weekend_promo_250414]Supremacy Special promo to cater to your tastes. Or rather: to nourish that ever-present hunger for power that you have. Let's take a look at a few of the games on this weekend's offer, shall we?

If you've been eyeing Age of Wonders 3, but you're unsure if it will suit your taste well, this is your chance to sample the concepts of the series. On this promo you'll find all of its predecessors: Age of Wonders, Age of Wonders 2: The Wizard's Throne, and Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic, which offers virtually infinite playtime with its random map generator feature. If you like turn-based strategy games following the time-proven explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate scheme, but you haven't had the chance to play these games, now you can--for half the regular price, with the first game for as little as $2.99 and both sequels for $4.99 each!

The unique storytelling gem King of Dragon Pass puts you in charge of a clan of colonists in an unexplored territory. The ways the story of your clan can unfold are virtually limitless! Every single decision you make affects the slowly-unravelling tale. There's consequence to every action in this game and the choices between right or wrong rarely are apparent. Wrong choices don't end the game, though. Like in real life, they just make things harder. This community favorite, one of the highest-rated games on GOG.com (and rightfully so!), can be yours for only $2.39.

If you enjoy the turn-based mechanics of the Heroes of Might and Magic series, but you would like to immerse yourself even deeper in a complex and extensive gameworld, don't miss Eador: Genesis. When we originally released this Russian masterpiece, we said that the single-player campaign can take up to 200 hours to beat. Our colleague from the support team, who knows the game by heart came asking later how did we come up with such a number. We told him, that 200 hours is the expected playtime stated by the developer. "Must have been a speedrun"--our friend commented, and we believe him (GOG.com support is known to be trustworthy, afterall). So brace yourselves--for only $2.39 you'll get more than 200 hours of playtime.

But that's only scratching the surface of our weekend promo! There are many more games to challenge your leadership skills on the Supremacy Special promo page, so go ahead and check them out now! The offer will last until Tuesday, April 29, at 3:59AM GMT.

gandalf.nho: Humm, Cossacks looks too difficult and in doubt about Age of Wonders (normally I prefer RTSs..) and the other interesting ones I already have, guess will pass this time
Interesting you mention Cossacks. It is brutally hard but for some reason I keep coming back to it, and I hate a challenge. I'm not going to insist anyone buy it like they should Battle Realms, but Cossacks reminds me of the Cenobites from Hellraiser in that they offer the absolute extreme in both pleasure and pain.

jackster79: Got all that I would want from this already except Overlord and its expansion Raising Hell (thinking it is on my wishlist for a reason, hell if I can recall why). Anyone want sell me on that one? If not, I will get Sudeki instead.
I really enjoy Overlord. I didn't finish it, but I rarely finish games (no time, no time). It's a reasonably facile strategy game - you build up an army of imps and lay waste to the countryside, collecting a few different kinds of energy that allow you to purchase advanced troops, and there's a castle which you can decorate that also houses rooms where you can customize the special abilities and defenses of your army over time.

The real fun lies in sending your minions here and there to smash stuff up. The voicing is hilarious - your minions shout "Treasure! For the Master!" when they find goodies in the rubble, and so forth - and it's just a silly joy watching them run around wrecking everything. I have no idea if it will tickle you like it tickled me, but it was a game I told my friends about while I was playing it.

I already have all the interesting games from this promo so my wallet is safe for another weekend. :D
Just Battle Realms for me this weekend. *shrug* Still...it's one more off the wishlist.
Ahh, I love the smell of napalm in the morning. Great promo.
Like I really needed to spend more money on games here, however, any concise descriptions and comparisons to the following: Age of Wonders series, Battle Realms, and Nexus? Thanks.

Moonbeam: Another star for you:)
Cute drawing Moonbeam but this really is stupid. :P There are some fantastic titles in this sale and I derailed with a silly rep joke. I'm worried there maybe be people who get caught up in this instead of buying and playing Battle Realms.....LIKE YOU ALL SHOULD! :D

I've never actually played the expansion. I had the original on disc for a long time and loved it but the expansion was $40 or some crazy thing. When I discovered GOG I bought the package immediately but I've been too caught up playing the original and the 10 million other games I have here.

The replay value is extraordinary given it's a simple RTS but they had just enough twist and options to keep you trying different things.
I'm already going to buy Age of Wonders 1, should I grab the other two as well? I've kinda heard mixed reviews about them.
