Were there that many good games in the first half of 2003?
Not the greatest game of all time (everybody knows it is CtP2
) but a fun game.

Galactic Civs was pretty good, and Moo3 (patched!!! I hasten to add) is worthy of a second look too.
Tamerlin, if you liked CoW you might want to try Crown of the North (another paradox game). It includes the latest version of EU2 and an renovated version of Svea Rike 3Comment

Thanks Ravagon, the game has arrived in France this week.
But I am allergic to real time games (even EU2)...

CoW had realtime battles, no? I don't think of EU2 as more real time than that. I have every significant action set to pause the game.To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection.

Not really, it is a bit like a more sophisticated CtP2 battle resolution.Originally posted by Grumbold

You place your troops on starting positions (front line, flanks, rear lines and so on), select their formation (square, column, line, etc.), their stance (hold, move and hold, assault, etc.) but once you click on the start button you don't have any control on your troops. The decision is thus made before the battle resolution thanks to the quality (or lack of) of the troops, your placement on the board, the right formation choice and the right orders. Nothing close to a real time battle system.
