Fenixp: Nah, anything you'd get me would go towards my backlog as I just have everything I want and still have quite a few games I want to finish left unfinished. I'm just glad to help and spread some Original War love, I have never seen a person to not like the game so I hope you won't be the first one to fill those shoes.

Tarnicus: Well in that case I'll owe myself one with your suggestion and break one of my rules and buy Original War at full price for myself next pay and let you know what I think of it :) I can't believe I haven't heard of it - most likely due to it being RTS :)
you should try Heroes 2 and Heroes 3 for the story and gameplay, also Etherlords 2 pretty interesting

Actually no, I want you to buy EVERYONE EVER a copy of Original War from your next paycheck. ... ... No? ... No? Oh all right then, what you said it good enough. Just let me know whether you liked it :-P

That has given me an idea, will see how finances are next pay :) I'm moving into my girlfriend's house in 3 weeks, so my rent is going down and my happiness is going up :) (er that isn't intended as innuendo lol)

Mentao: My advice, if you are still looking, would be RPG:

Dink Smallwood.

But if you have already played it, then I would recommend Sentinel Worlds I: Future Magic or Hard Nova

Tarnicus: Hey thanks for these suggestions. Are you Karl Buiter or a fan? I used to have both games when I collected abandonware but never got round to playing them. I notice Starflight and Star Control 2 are mentioned in the wiki entry for both games and I played the crap out of those games in high school and loved them :)
I'm a fan, but I played Sentinel Worlds when I was like 13 years old (around 20 years ago). You have to get used to the interface, but the story is one of the best I've ever played. Later I played Hard Nova which had more or less the same interface.

Regarding Starflight, I've never played it but I did play Starflight 2: Trade Routes of the Cloud Nebula which is another game I would recommend, but I didn't because it is longer and you want a short game. It has a good story, too.
