Default Best Strategy games in the line of Age of Empire series


Guys firstly sorry for starting this thread. I did do a search to see if there are any similar threads but I don't see anything which was created recently.

Can you kindly advise me on a good strategy game in the lines of Age of Empire.
I have played AOE II, AOEIII and Age of Mythology. Are there any other series from the same team which is equally good which I would have missed.

Also played Empire Earth.

If you are into future scenarios, check out Command and Conquer series. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War is also good. Dawn of War II is not like AoE though.

^^I'm not sure about the future scenarios etc but the theme should be similar to age of empires like building a base and attacking the enemy.

Uh.. Civilization doesn't quite fall into the same category as Age of Empires. Age of Empires is a Real-time Strategy game , Civ is TURN-based strategy.

Well, with that out of the way, you should give Majesty 2 a shot. It's a really unique RTS , since you can't give orders to units

Oh yeah , +1 to those that mentioned Starcraft.

Why just Shogun Total War? Recommend the entire Total War series.

Rome : Total War is my personal favourite.

Shougun Total war is not exactly in the lines of AoE. At times, it is a whole different genre.
