At simhq i am named, 'madaboutsims' because of the amount of sims i play and enjoy, each has its own strengths and weaknesses so i figure the best thing is to play them all

Here is some in my list, to many to remember all,
right
SDOE
SDOE OPWW1
WW2f
AW
AH
EAW
IL-2
Panzer Commander
LC
B-172
OFP
BoB
CFS1
CFS2

you?
Just wondered if there is anyone esle out there like me. I go to some forums and see the il-2 is better than etcetc, or EAW is better than etcetcetc, i think that all are good in there own ways, some need work with mods etc but after that they are fine.

I have a collection of WWII sims and a few others, modern stuff and civilian (R6 series, Fleet Command, FA18, GPL, MSTS, etc). When it comes to WWII though, here's what I have in order of amount of play:

SDOE

IL2
Wolfenstein
Hidden and Dangerous
Steel Panthers: World At War

other games I have but haven't tried out, or played in a long time:

Silent Hunter II
Panzer Commander
Fighting Steel

My dream would be to have a collection of fully-featured sims: flight sim, surface naval sim, sum sim, FPS sim (SAS a la HD style and another more OPF style)and a tank sim all of the same calibre as IL2.

Cheers,

Werner

I for one am very selective about the sims I buy, subject matter, free time available (I have a 3 year old, and a baby due very soon), and money all being major limiting factors. The ones I still play are:

FS-SDOE
Tornado
Fighting Steel
EF2000

Combat Mission:Beyond Overlord is a pretty good turn-based tactical war-game, available from Battlefront.
Go here for more info: www.battlefront.com/products/worldwar/cm
(its only available for purchase via internet)

On a different level, at the advice of 3dp at his site, I visited www.theunderdogs.org and am currently playing 'the clue!', in which you play a crook in post-war London, trying to climb (or descend! ) the underworld ladder by pulling off robberies and heists - which must be planned meticulously. Very absorbing and highly recommended.
