I'm looking forward to Combat Mission: Shock Force (battlefront.com; no page yet, just a forum), due spring 2006.

Do you know if they will be available for Mac? You got a Mac, right Djo?

I do have a Mac. Battlefront has been very careful about announcing Mac support. They very much want to (the devs use Macs), but they are afraid the Mac to Intel chip transition may screw them if Apple changes key APIs or something. Apparently something of that kind happened during the OS 9 to OS X transition, which is why no Combat Mission 1 for OS X. However, they seem very optimistic; various posts in the forum seem to have almost all but announced Mac support. One wonders if announcements at this week's Macworld Expo may clarify the situation enough to make an official announcement possible.

Battle for Middleearth 2 might also be cool.
BfME 1 was very good, i liked it almost as much as Starcraft.
BfME 2 could very well become the king of RTS
