    Best ever Strategy game

    I know this has been done a hundred times. Please forgive.
    I need an excellent strategy game and was wondering what is the current best strategy game?

    Supreme commander... well it will be in 2007.. MWHAHAHAHAHAHA

    other than that, starcraft... or total annihalation tbfh

    i enjoyed the cossacks games but only as a short term relief, was quite funny firing 100 cannons at a city or sending 1000 hussars rampaging across the map

    indeed, it was just as enjoyable stealthing it round the map with tanya, blowing stuff up as it was hammering the enemy with tesla coils and masses of vehicles and infantry

    Civ 3, assuming you dont mind turn based strategy, if you mean rts, theres something of a surfiet of excellent ones - any c&c bar tiberian sun, warcraft 3, dawn of war, or if youre really into a challenge, homeworld 1&2.
