Oldest strategy game that you still play?

[Kyriakos]

What is the oldest pc or console strategy game you still play on a regular or semi-regular basis?

Nowdays i rarely play computer games, but from time to time i run civIII for half an hour of an emperor epic game which i never seem to finish...

Around 7 years ago i was in a serious old-game phase, and played regularly games from the 80s and the early 90s, like Utopia, Megalomania, Settlers, Centurion, various KOEI games like Genghis Khan and then some truly ancient ones like Medieval Kingdoms (a precursor to the Europa Universalis series) and Annals of Rome.

Rome Total War probably, I'm too lazy to get Civ2 to work on Windows 7.

 

[GoodGame]

I've played a good amount of MOO 1/2 the past 12 months. I've also tried Civ2 and CTP2 the past year.

 

[Racsoviale]

Settlers 2 if I could get it to work, but sometimes I still up a Dungeon Keeper game

Also Simcity

 

[OrsonM]

Tiberian Sun, really flawed, yet probably Westwoods finest.

 

[Antilogic]

Master of Orion, like GoodGame. Playing hard difficulty right now because I'm still a little rusty.

Does FIFA 12's manager mode count as a strategy game?

 

[Maniacal]

I don't know what else to call it except "excel simulator" so sure.

 

[Tee Kay]

The original Command and Conquer (1995)

Tiberian Sun, really flawed, yet probably Westwoods finest.

True.

I'd still play AoE or AoK, but it crashes when I press 'Diplomacy'. You could say the game wants to me to wreak havoc on the others but I'd prefer building up before warring.

The next oldest game I still play is CivIII, which ironically is the most recent game I've bought due to losing the original copy of the game TWICE.

civ 3 some times, age of empires 2 some times, and simcity 2000 sometimes

and and really old one. Conquest of the new world. Which is great!

 

[Kennigit]

starcraft: brood war if real time strategy counts (1998).

 

[TrailblazingScot]

A heavily modded version of SMAC, it is like crack to me

 

[salty mud]

I play Age of Empires II from time to time.

 

[Antilogic]

A heavily modded version of SMAC, it is like crack to me

I got some fan-made stuff for that online and modded in a few human factions. Still fun at times.

 

[vypernight]

Does Go count?

 

[Thormodr]

MoM.

Truly a classic and one of the best games of all time.

 

[PaaVi]

AoE II

 

[Antilogic]

Does Go count?

If it does, I have to change mine to chess.

Sorry, only computer/console strategy games Both turn based and rts count.
