The whole RTS thing at this level turns me to mush. I bought the first HoI and couldnt cope with the clock ticking

I'm the same way with RTS games. If it were not for the pause function and the ability to turn the speed way down low, I would never have bought it.

weell if you liked HOI2 it is HOI2 and that tweeked.. ai ruetines changed.. combat sea air all tweeked... looks to be MUCH improved .. so again if you like H2, my advice get it.. if you did not then you won't liek this version.. but it is a very much improved version..

Haha what if you only have HoI2 vanilla, and HoI3 vanilla, but have not played either because of the complexity. :)

That's my dilemma with games. Some of these games take more time to learn than I have or have the attention span for. Yet, I am still thinking of purchasing AoD. I'm mentally ill.

If you don't want complexity.. you should try World War 2 Time of Wrath... I almost didn't want to like it, when I first got it, cause I thought it seemed to simple.. Then I found myself totally addicted.. "Just one more Turn" type thing. hard to quit for the night... very easy to get into it quickly... but the game to me is still a challenge.. I'm still on my first game.. in 1944.. and the Russians are starting to create Level 5 Tank Corps.. that easily bust through my lines.. I sense I may lose this one and have to start a new game....

But again.. Easy to Get into.. and Lots of Fun.. a real I think people call it Beer and Pretzels type strategy game!

Yeah I own this one but have only gotten through the tutorial. I think I may give that one a shot tonight.
