when I go to a city screen of any type of town outside inferno,
necropolis and haven, I have only a silhouette, no detail...what am i
doing wrong?
awaiting a reply...

Anywhere else I can get it besides file planet?  They keep me jumping
through hoops and I still acn't d/load the thing.  Thanks folks,
                                 Jim

I've tried to play the demo, but it wouldn't work.
Now I read that the specs have been turned down for the release version.
Does anyone know the specs?

Tim Brooks of Shrapnel Games is glowing over the manual. He whipped up a
couple of scans so we could all get even more hyped about getting the game.
Here is one of them...

Anyone else try the demo? I did and wasn't impressed by the new race, though
having just watched some of the videos out there, the other new race the
necrons (yes they had to have an undead race) seems to be the more
interesting of the two. The Tau just seem to be a race of ...

DEFCON looks like the kind of game I might love, and it's being offered  
through Steam as a $10 preorder, but the web pages don't say what the
gameplay is like in any detail.  Mostly just some evocative text and
some screengrabs.  No demo.

Ok here I go with some written regurgitation. Maybe I'm showing my age here,
especially starting out with "I remember" but here goes.
I remember having my Amiga 500 and a game called Star Control 3. It was one
of the best games I ever played. Simple concepts, but there was a ...

Inspired by the recent trade request posts, been going through my games, and
have several I really haven't played in a while, so thought I would offer
them up for trade if anyone is interested. Lots of good titles here.
What I have available:

Im not beginner at realtimestrategy so I needs something special and
challenging. I noticed age series are too easy for me with easy level and
hard level just take longer, and I still completed it in the end, but just
putting my tanks ,back, crossbowmen in the middle and spearmen ...

For those of you that are interested there is a demo out that you can
grab here....

This is the same in the demo as it was in the beta, lets hope its
fixed in the retail version - you cannot skip cutscenes!
Why is this?  If you want to replay the demo mission you have to sit
through them all over again - very annoying.

With all the bitching we do besides from what I now think is the best RTS I
have played, the fact you can play it without the disk and only need one
copy for your home Lan is so nice.  I haven't tried the home Lan yet but
when was the last time  a major game let you do that ...

So far the demo is a lot of fun, but I'm beginning to get frustrated with
the second mission where you have to hold out for 15 minutes. It seems the
tanks always magically avoid all the mines I place, except those by the
base. I had troops outnumbering them 2 to 1 hidden behind ...

Company of Heroes isn't coming out here before the 28th, but I'm still
hoping for a RTS that actually manages to keep my attention (only Kohan
managed that before). I'm not very fond of the WW2 theme, at all, but that
aside, what I've read about the game sounds very good. So, I ...

I got Civ IV Warlords a while back and have been working my way through
the scenarios it contains.  Overall they are a mixed bag; some are
really good (and fun) and some are terribly flawed.  I played them
against the AI all at the difficulty level where neither side gets an
