I'm not a big gamer, n jus lookin for something to pass time whilst at home when bored. I used to love the age of empires games back in the day; something with similar controls would be awesome

They are incredible games, although I am not a fan of the 'Fall of the Samurai' version of Shogun 2. I liked the whole massive battle line and tactical element of that, rather than a gunpowder killfest. It just wasn't the same for me. You have ignored this user.

You take charge of a family and need to work at making your family more powerful through marriages, bribes, assassinations and the likes. Unbelievably indepth game. Quite daunting at 1st but after a few playthroughs (and having your family snuffed out at your grandkids) a very worthwhile game You have ignored this user.

Darth_Vladar - I suppose you could give the Total War series a go.

Yeah Shogun 2 is a great game. Worth checking out. Mix of real time strategy battles and turn based campaigns. It's also the only Total War game that doesn't need a mod.

Crusader Kings 2 is fantastic as well.
