Finally a strategy game that is actually about strategy. I have come to resent the genre standard of build-orders, resource gathering, and en masse tactics. Medieval 2: Total War is a masterpiece of tactical play. Execute feints, flank charges, diversions, shieldwalls: as it claims, all the tactics a medieval general would have used. It's a relatively simple interface, using mostly the mouse and arrow keys if you are so inclined. Overall a great game, and one I would recommend to any tactically inclined general.
