[RR] Sid Meier's Railroad

[Quueg]

I recently bought SMR on Steam and am enjoying it. I liked RRT2 very much, but grew tired of the late-game cargo micro-management it required. I tried RRT3, but felt it went too far the other direction by automating so much that I felt like a spectator.

So far, SMR seems like a reasonable balance. And it definitely looks good.

Have you read up on the 3GB enabler? If you're using Vista or Win7, you'll want to. I've recently started playing this again. I still get crashes, but not as bad as others I've read about.

Also note that in addition to the Enabler, there are gobs of custom maps available at that same site.

Cheers.
