On a recent trip to my local Circuit City I saw they have Romance of the Three Kingdoms (hereby referred to as "Rot3K") 7 for $19.99. I had always heard about how deep these games were, but I ended up getting Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War for $19.99 instead (no $9.99 PC game goodness at my CC..don't get me started on the local Target and BB either ). Now I am real interested on whether I should end up picking up Rot3K 7, or look around for a later version (if they have some huge gameplay addition or something)? Granted, I have only seen one other Rot3K game in a store before (Best Buy, $49.99), but I don't remember which it was.
I'm not sure how much I will get into Warhammer, as I tend to forget how sucky I am at RTS games in the Command and Conquer vain (I'm just so damn slow, especially after getting used to playing the computer in campaign. Every first match I play online in these games just puts me off entirely after that.). But the hype and praise always gets me (same happened with Ages of Mythology, I ended up ebaying it). I hope I can get into DoW...I also plan to get Rome: Total War, but at least I have an idea how that is, after the demo.
And finally, how're the Dynasty Tactics games? I remember seeing DT2 at an EB somewhere, so are they worth tracking down for $25-30? Is 2 better than 1, or just different?
Thanks for any advice/info!
