Hi,
Here are some games I really like. (other than KaM, my favorite) If you like any of them too please tell me. The free ones have links.
  • Triplane Turmoil - A great old DOS game, it doesn't run properly on 98+ though. :(

    Close Combat III The Russian Front - An extreamly realistic WW2 game.

    Battlefield 1942/Battlefield 2 - Great FPS online and with friends

    Civilisation II or III - Lots of fun

    Half-life II - Great graphics and physics, one of the best FPS

    OpenLerioX - A new version of Liero for windows

    Commandos (any version) - Use commandos in WW2
As you can see, they are mostly very old games.
Lewin.

How about AOE 2? The graphics are worse than KAM but the AI is a lot better (single-map enemies actually attack and protect eachother (depending on which team they're in), stuff like that)

- Liero (NOTHING beats the original, and it's Finnish :P)
True, the original is so much better than any of the remakes, the only reason I play OpenLieroX is you can play it online with other people very easily.
Oh yes, it is finnish. Is it true that Liero mean 'Earth Worm' in Finnsh?
what's WW2?
LOL! :D World War 2 (You know, 1939-1945, Germany attacks Poland...)

Personally, I hate AOE, I don't like the health system and KaM requires more complicated tactics than AOE. (in AOE you just spam stuff to win) Also, it's made by Microsoft :evil: (who I hate)

LOL! Very Happy World War 2 (You know, 1939-1945, Germany attacks Poland...)
Oh, so that was what you meant with it. I have Commandos 1 + Exp., but it will only run every once in a while on my computer. most of the time it either crashes when i move the mouse or it doesn't even start. the tutorial in the exp. (2 playable missions, but your characters are immortal in that one) does run on XP.

I have Commandos 1 as well, it works fine on XP here. Have you tried enabling backwards compatibility? (Try 98, that was about when it was made) I might have done this but I can't remember right now...

I did try it, but it had the same issues, can't try it again now, (my laptop SHOULD be back in between now and 5 WEEKS)... Maybe it's because it's a laptop, that the mouse(touchpad) doesn't work that good.

Ever tried playing online? Unless you use advanced tactics or play against some newbie you will be defeated in a matter of minutes :x

YES!!! I love Descent!!! I've only really played 2, (1 a little) and it is one of my favourite games. It has one of the best intro movies ever.
Glad someone else likes it.
