Default Re: OT) Best Turn Based Game: Fantasy or Space or War

One is "MOM2" from Firaxis (yes Sid does it again)
Sid needs to be forcibly retired (or better: shot) before he butchers yet another classic game...

hope too that SEV has a similar sytem, but I dont think so. Aaron is more tending to a real time tactical game (similar to his present game project) - not my taste at all.
This only stems from not understanding the goal of real time combat. It will not be anything like RTS games. A simple pause option and then being able to issue orders while paused makes combat IDENTICAL to turn-based combat because you can control the lenght of the rounds (whereas they are fixed in turn-based), except that you get rid of all of the absurdities inherent in all turn-based combat systems.
