"Time Commanders"

Watched this programme earlier, the people they have on there commanding the armies are thick as two short planks. I'd like to have a go. The software they use to render the battlefield and control the many units must be very impressive, as must the computer they run it on.

What are the best army commanding games that are similar to this that you know of?

Mayhaps.

Here are the minimum requirements for Medieval:


DirectX 8.1 comaptible 16MB video card and drivers.

Pentium II 350 or Athlon processor or higher

Windows 98/2000/ME/XP

128MB of RAM

A whopping 1.7GB of uncommpressed free hard disk drive space

100% DirectX 8.1 compatible sound card and drivers.



By the way, DirectX 8.1 is included.

I bet you need a PC equivalent to the matrix to run it though don't you? mines a fossil you see.

Actually, that programme is run on the "Rome: Total War" engine, as far as I know and should be out soon if it is not already. If it is not you can always try Medieval: Total War, as it is by the same developers and is a great game. Unfortunately mine is scratched.
