Be warned that X3 is a hugely daunting game with a massive learning curve.

Noted.
It seems to be somewhat of a freelancer-on-steroids.
But the learning curve can't be too difficult, right? I mean I could manage most baseless levels on C&C: RA when I was about 8..

It's like a hardcore version of Freelancer. Kinda like the PR of Space Exploration games.

Second that. Also suggest a VERY obscure game I bet NONE of you have heard of.. The Neverhood. It's a claymation puzzle-game where you wander "the Neverhood" and try to save it. I highly recommend The Neverhood.

The earlier Monkey Island games are far better imo. It didn't seem to transition well to the GrimE engine.. Lucasarts should have stuck with SCUMM.

I just played some more Master Of Magic and remembered one of my favourite strats.. a legion of UNDEAD TROLLS.
Trolls regenerate, so any troops surviving a battle end it with full health. Undead troops resurrect themselves with full health at the end of combat providing you're victorious.
Simply put - it's impossible to slowly drain this army as each battle they win, they effectively win without casualties.

Yep, black channels and trolls were pretty game breaking. There are a shitload of strats like this that could totally cheese the game. A couple of warships with flight and invisibility were unbeatable, the AI didn't know how to deal with them. You could also put all your picks in death magic and start summoning Shadow Demons or Wraiths on the first turn, if you were quick enough a single one of these units could take on enitre enemy armies. Have a read of this site, particularly the FAQ http://www.dragonsword.com/

Garry's Mod is a great game I'm getting back into. It's a total sandbox game, you just build whatever crap you want. Two pretty much required addons are Wiremod and PHX3. PHX3 for the parts for building, Wiremod so you can make robots and complex contraptions.
