games with "king" in the name.

[lord of the mark]

only ones i can think of: kings quest series, king of dragon pass, and of course age of kings.

any others.

Not interested in games with prince in the name.

[Harry Seldon]

Home Run King
Punch King
Haven: Call of the King
Ring King
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Return of the Dark King
Legend of the River King

Why do you want to know this?

[Nikolai]

Paradox's upcoming game Crusader Kings.

[Harry Seldon]

I saw another one at lunch: Carnival King.

Crusader Kings. Is that RTS or TBS? Surely not FPS...

Oh yes, i should have thought of this. looked at the paradox forum - looks really good, i think they have an excellent sense of how medeival politial struggles took place.

Harry: well, im just impatient.

Crusader Kings is based on the EU engine, so presumably like EU it will be a real time game, but not one that resembles standard RTS in any way.

There is also the FPS Kingpin, (not about ten pin bowling ) where you take on the head of a crime syndicate.

I only remember the boardgame kingmaker (war of the roses - heavy political emphasis) - i seem to recall that it was cool.

Is there a PC version? Is it any good?

While based on the EU engine, it's a completely new one after what the lead programmer from Snowball have said. But it will be like EU regarding RTS, but I'd rather call it a turnbased RTS.(you'll understand if you've played EU1/2.)

We used to play kingmaker quite a bit. A typical good avalon hill board war game in medieval times. Unfortunately, like most of those games, it took more that a few hours to set up and play. Never heard of a PC version.
