Mine would have to be Boulderdash or Mario 64.

As a teenager I played Boulderdash (C64) all night at weekends, frequent eigth hour + sessions.

100's of hours in total.

Played through all Boulderdash's, but none as perferct as 1.

Then Mario 64 too, but once you finally finish it, well that's it, not been back since.

Love long gaming sessions, not so practical in adult life tho.

Unlike in Stronghold, the other medieval sim, where you have the 'Black Monks' who kill anyone who get in their way. They should not be confused with the Black monks of St. Herod from Blackadder II, who run a bank for the Baby-Eating-Bishop of Bath and Wells.

Usually I bring about six monks and convert buildings, units such as boats and people and also other monks which is great. There also very good with healing powers. A row of paladins with a row of archers behind them with a row of monks, un-beatable.

Castles are the ultimate building: they spawn your unique units, can protect a garrison, spawn trebuchets and shoot the enemy.

Perfick!

I only bother to do that if i'm fighting over islands. I'll bring about 10 villies and build three castles and 2 of every military building. Peufect!

My tatic is Trebuchets lots of them all lined up, they are defended by Palidins and archers, always works. Also I take villagers along so they can steal the enermies resources and build new milatary buildings so there are always reinforcements.

My tactic - Send in the paladins to wipe out villies and town center aand then they start on the army. Send in foot troops to take out all other buildings and more paladins for their army. Never fails.
