What other games complement your Dominions 3?

Continuum is still alive?
I played it quite a lot in ancient history, but when I tried going back to it I couldn't find a server with a playable amount of people on it.

As for the games I'm playing right now:
Dwarf Fortress
Grim Fandango (I was surprised to find it does work on XP, because last time I tried, it didn't. [maybe it was SP1 vs SP2?])
Civ IV

BTW, there was a "favorite games" thread a while back, so that might also prove an interesting related read.

Ok, just to be different...

SEV (YEAH! TAKE THAT...really though I don't/didn't play IV enough to notice any differences, or rather any stiking ones..)

CivIV+Fall from heaven mod i.e masters of magic in civ...

Don't hate me for this one...it's my second guilty pleasure...

Sims...

OH GOD THE SHAME!

(first guilty pleasure is dynasty/samurai warriors.)

Oh, abit of City of Heroes too atm, and the odd game of age of wonders 2 shadow magic.

Armaggedon Empires best indie game of last year.

Except that I mostly play oldies, good old hex wargames (WinSPWW2, Fantasy General), and 4x like MoM/MoO.

No MMO since I've stopped EQ and WoW. I was tempted by AoC but system requ are too high.

NWN, Hordes of the underdark, Truth is it got quite boring towards the 3rd expansion but I want to complete it (like reading a book with a slow ending, seems to drag on forever)

GC-II, I'm trying to complete the first campaign but damn dominions always gets in the way

I've some newer flashier games on my shelf, all shiny new and hardly touched. I hope to get to them sometime soon, but my dominions condition makes chances of that slimmer every day.

When stardocks new FTBS game is out I promise (to myself) I will give it a serious try.

Stars! is a fantastic game, I still play it occasionally. I'm really starved for new games lately, did you guys see that there's a 3d remake of King's Bounty coming out this year? Oh the fond memories...

Football Manager 2008
Flight Simulator 2004 and X

What ever happened to Stars!? I have that game from like 1995 or so. Is that the newest one still? I can barely find any information about it on the web. Did they ever make a new one? It is a great game.

I tried the demo as I loved the theme on this but found even a minor battle just takes too long. It was like a clickfest but in turn based mode. Maybe I was missing something on the UI but I gave it up when my fingers started cramping up...
