Games like North & South and Rampart?(simple strategy)
« on: July 04, 2007, 01:06:58 pm »
Hey all!

I'm looking for more games like North & South and Rampart...you know, simple
arcade-like 'strategy'-games. They don't need to be arcade, but it's preferred ;D
Console is OK too:)

Any advice?

Nicholas

I had loved north and south on my Atari ST  :)

Not sure we can categorize it as same kind of game , but i love Advance War on GameBoy Advance.

Thanks!

I heard about that one, but never into handhelds:)

How was North & South on Atari?? I only played the Amiga(and NES) versions!

North and south on Atari  ST was exactly the same than the Amiga version. Except the sound that under the amiga version.

I don't know if this qualifies but there's Risk for the Sega Genesis.

I'm playing Advance Wars now, and wow, that's great! Really great!

Risk qualifies...I just never liked it:)

Are there any Atari ST emulators? I hate the Amiga one, winUAE.

Keep 'em coming ;D ;D

they are St emularor:

Steem is the one that is used in my plug'n play module for Atomic.

There is also WinOnSt   , and i thing others exists.


Yes, Advance War is very great.   It exists Advance War 2  also.  Never played to that one yet.


Other games i love ,  is Populus , it exists on PC, Atari St, Amiga, Genesis and surely others.

And if you like Advanced wars, give Fire Emblem a try.  It's more a 'fantasy' storyline, but a very fun game to play.

I liked Laser Squad on Amiga, which is also out to least PC, C64 and other formats as well.

Thanks for the heads-up on Fire Emblem...but I hate fantasy :)

I like tanks! :cheers:

Space Fractal, I never tried Laser Squad even though I played Amiga a lot. I'll have to
check it out. Er du egentlig ikke fra Danmark?

Ja, det er helt korrekt. Tror muligt at jeg da har set dig hos et andet forum (playright.dk eller spille-maskiner.dk?).

Laser Sqard is a turn based game based in a sci-fi theme. Im are that one which dosent normally play this type of game.

If RISK counts, you need to get Allied General, Panzer General 1&2  and Pacific General on the cabinet.

All Hail SSI  :notworthy:

Sidenote... is it just me or is Rampart absolutely impossible in single player mode after the first two stages?
