MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Spending a lot of time on the sofa looking after little one. Thinking I used to enjoy wasting many hours on civilisation, what games are out now worth a look? Must be able to pause or save which means real time stuff is out. Completely out of touch with what is now available.
Laptop is a newish Lenovo z50, no idea in spec but would hope it should be able to cope with most things
Still Civilisation! (I didn't take to Civ 5, Civ 4 with the Beyond the Sword expansion is fantastic though and should be cheap now
XCOM perhaps?
Europa universalis IV.
Galactic Civilizations 3, like Civ but on a galaxy scale.
XCOM.
Civ 3, runs on my Windows 7 laptop, all apart from the opening video which oddly won't run on the onboard graphics card as it requires some piddly small dedicated card!
Unity of Command.
Mega-lo-mania! 😆
Xcom Enemy Unknown. It's excellent
Xcom looks pretty good.
And preferably it to be playable from a tracker pad
XCOM is ace. Gets a wee bit grindy at times but when it's good, it's really good. Lots of ohshit moments.
It's only £6.24 from Steam just now for the complete pack (which weirdly is cheaper than the expansion alone)
XCOM is very good. It's also... a challenge, shall we say. You need to pay attention.
Do you have a link to the complete pack? For £6 it's worth a punt. I take it it downloads over the net or is it hosted?

I actually just bought the entire pack, just to get the expansion, even though I already own the game. Economics.

Cool, Will have a go if I'm up at 4am again tonight.
Thanks for the other suggestions looks like I'll have plenty of time to try them out. Prob civ galactic 3 next...
