 I just bought my first 100 pack a couple of days ago, it is so addictive!
Other than that, I do some COD4 MP, trying to get myself to finish Mass Effect, and trying to inspire myself to the work on the incredibly obtuse "The Experiment", and I tinker a little now and then with Sins of a Solar Empire. Was also playing a lot of GalCiv2 before becoming totally immersed in Dominions again.
Additionally, when I'm not playing Dom3, I like to play Dom3. I had 4 instances of the game running on this machine the other day, I need professional help.

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
Ya I'm playing Flash games on Kongregate pretty regularly (Desktop Tower Defense was one that got me started), though I don't get stuck on them for very long, usually. Some of my favorites are listed at:

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
I'll add one not mentioned yet: I play quite a lot of Football Manager. (Don't shoot me. While its theme is quite different, it's still a strategy game.  ) I've been playing it intermitently since I discovered its existence 6 or 7 years ago, in 2 or 3 different versions. (I see absolutely no need to shell out 50€ every year for the new one)

Re: 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.

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
Ok, just to be different...

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

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
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.

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
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.

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
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...

Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?
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.
