Currently I only play two DOS games; Wargame Construction Set 2:Tanks, and Age of Rifles

Master of Orion 2.
Just finished a game.

One of those good ones. Where a cold war like balance develops. Two sides fairly evenly matched. A leap in tech needed to get the edge. Before the other side does.

I play with the limited tech choice options to boost the AI.
But got the plasma web and won.

I find it very hard to attack planets at the late stages of MoO2.

The AI likes to mass at one planet prior to attack. Take that planet. It throws it off balance. Then do it again.

I like to turn off tech trading in games that allow it as to be fair to the ai which is all too easy to exploit in every game I've played with tech trading. Especially Distant Worlds now that I've found the exploit. Just think of it as living in a galaxy where no race would ever allow tech trading. Works quite well and makes for a better more challenging game vs ai.

not a strategy game but a truly awesome DOS game - Geoff Crammonds Grand Prix 2 -i played alot of GP3 but had played GP2 until this week when i got an old boxed copy of it - running it through Dosbox of course it plays so well and is so good, - i like the AI in the Geoff Crammond games as it is individual for every car and not like you are playing agains some hive mind opponents all just bolted on to the same singular driving line.
I am not one for motor sports generally but Formula One is the exception, perhaps its the global-ish nature of it.

I've been playing "Imperialism" lately although that, I think, is a early windows game. So the only true DOS game I can think of that I play from time to time is Master of Magic.

Although there are several DOS games that I plan to return to whenever I find time and energy.

This thread might be a bit dated, but I have to put my $.02 in for Pacific War. Granted, it's been updated and somewhat enhanced but even with its clunky interface and sub-prime graphics I place it at the top of my list.
