Hrumpf, someone else plays my favorite:

1. Europa Universalis
2. SEIV
3. Heavy Gear 2 (I'm a PodCorp'er)
4. Operational Art of War
5. Tachyon: The Fringe (Just for Bruce Cambell)

1 & 2 I play every day without fail. 3 is a few times a week. 4 & 5 are a few times a month (usualy at/with the National Guard.)

In no particular order --

SE4, Xconq, FO2.

SE4 we all know.

Xconq is a (primarily Unix, but also others now, methinks) VERY expandable open-source Strategic-Conquest-like game. Some of its expandability comes from what appears to be a Lisp-like (or perhaps it's full Lisp; I've not checked... but that would be overkill, methinks) interpreter built in.

FO2: damn fun RPG with a great sense of humor, and highly flexible character design.


Those are the only three I have which get a lot of playing time, aside from the occasional nostalgia game (_Neuromancer_, _Wasteland_, _Incunabula_ mostly).

Temptations (i.e. games not yet bought, but considered) that come to mind include CM:BO, TOAW:COW, and FO:T, but I really should be working on a thesis proposal instead... ;-)
