If I had to play one EU game, which should it be: EU II or EU III Complete?
I keep reading that EU II is the better game, but EU III looks so damn nice with the hand-drawn map mods

You can say that EU II is slightly better than EU III without the expansions. However the situation will change drastically after installing the add-ons.
It seems that Paradox and Firaxis have something in common - you can enjoy a game if you're willing to wait for a couple of expansions.
By the way this is my first post. I salute the civfanatics.

Yeah, lots of people say that Paradox's games are best played using the Complete edition. I could purchase both of them for $20 (a local shop is selling EUIII Complete for $10!), but I'd never have enough time to thoroughly play them. While I'm leaning toward EUIII Complete for value reasons (oh look a complete edition for $10), I've read that EUII is a more eloquent game that would be more familiar to Civ players.
10$ is insanely low for the value in the game. At this price, you cannot go wrong, I mean, even if you end up preferring EU II for some reason, at least you'll know for sure and you have something to do while waiting for EU II
I have EU III complete and maybe I'll pick up EU II at some point, I dunno.Marcillac

I can say that EU II has the same status like Civ II, you can't go wrong with it. You can play the newer (and improved) versions but you'll always return to it once in a while.
20$ isn't much. I think you have a bargain over there.

Hey, found HOI2 (not any expansions) for 6 bucks, so installing. Are the expansions really good, and are there any mods that are good for vanilla?

Just a little bit mad
Armageddon is a big improvement on regular HoI 2, though not as big as EU 3 -> In Nomine.
I'd recomend you get HoI 2 Anthology, or wait for HoI 3, which is coming out soon.

HOI2 complete is only $25, think it's worth it to buy? Its got a bit of a limited timeframe and limited amount of things possible to do it'd seem, but it does seem interesting, but with HOI3 coming so soon, and I'm pretty much tided over with Vicky and Eu3, think it'd be worth it?

If you're tided over with Vicky and EU3, then I would probably just wait it out, since the release date is August.

Hearts Of Iron 3 is looking so awesome i'm finding it hard to play any other games because all i want to do is get that and conquer Europe (or Asia!).

Will HOI 3 allow one to give bombers province rather than area targets?

It would be nice to also have the optino of customizing the regions your bomber wil ltarget, sometiems they default groupings of reginos just doesn't work well with a changing front line.

Yes. HoI3 will actually allow you to define if you want your bombers to attack a specific province or a region. Read this for further details.

Ugh, I'm looking forward to HoI3 but the map(the shape of the provinces especially) is just hideous. Hopefully by whenever time I get it mods make better maps.
