This is why I often have the most fun playing when winning is no longer an option. Once the pressure to make every turn as efficient an effective as possible is off, you can relax and focus on whatever smacks your fancy; win just one more battle, kill an adversary's favorite SC, sack the lead nation's capital...

Yeah I still have a lot of fun in Solo play.
Breaking things down to the most efficient path to a win doesnt interest me as much as coming up with fun twists. Dom3 is great for that. Lots of mods and maps and 3rd party programs to increase solo play.

Altho to be truthful I am spending most of my time now in the new Illwinter game Conquest of Elysium 3 which seems even more so. At least I am hoping it will be. So far it is still suffering from the change of location.
