My favourite would probably be Tin Soldiers, although I haven't played them in a while (most played Matrix game at the mo is Advanced Tactics). Just a pity they didn't sell better so Koios could have done a few more.

Advanced Tactics
Technically, you HAVE to have a favorite Matrix game - if you have played any at all - even if you don't like the game at all, then it is your favorite Matrix game if you prefer it above others. Don't blame me, blame the english language and the definition of preference. [:'(]
So stop being coy, picking games not made, or theoretical "perfect games" and answer the man's question. He said, "not best, favorite."
BTW, RH's perfect game would be: a TBS game with real-time elements that would be pausible and slow-paced (like TC:Man), featuring a challenging AI that forces you to kill every last man before it capitulates (no "warlord" bosses), allows for teching up and grand strategy - but only on the TBS grand strategy portion - and can't be anything like CotA. Whew... [;)]
Dude, relax. I was just making a comment. Was that really necessary? I did say that I'm playing CEAW.
I have several Matrix games, so I thought I made it pretty clear what my current favorite is.

Always used to be SPWAW for me, but now probably Advanced Tactics or Conquest of the Aegean.. I can't separate the two in terms of a favourite.
Have that game but don't understand how to play it. No tutorial to help me out

Wow if Matrixgames made that game it would be my favorite and bestest game of all time SOM.
But, like I said, they haven't made it yet.
You left out one very important thing though, actually two: Must have random generated maps and random generated forces.

No offense Ravinhood just joking of course.
BTW, this game is free, and it is based on web. [;)]
