    Taking my lead from the topic on this board about strategy games.... I was wondering if we'd have enough interest in running a LAN specifically for strategy games? Chances are it'd be an all night affair in the Dublin area, possibly on a friday night.... could people please post here to indicate if they'd be interested in coming along? If there's enough interest to fill a LAN I'll more than likely put one on, if not there's no point....... Feel free to include any suggestions or opinions also....

    Thanks in advance smile.gif

    Brilliant!! I've been waiting for one of these for ages.. they've been running in the UK with months and are a great success. I'll definately be there.

    /me would give his left Kidney for a 3 Day Civ2 Lan, but unfortunatly this isn't likely to happen.. (Unless someone wants to meet up somewhere for a 3 day bonanza!!)

    But I may be interested in a lan involving lesser Strategy games ;P

    aoe2 is ok.. but cmon people! Rise of Rome is sooo much better :)

    I say this only because I have only played aok about 5 or 6 times, and I generally end up getting into a long and blood(less?) siege which takes over 6 hours to end
    not that it's not fun and all, but after the second game it begins to lose it's appeal :)

    war2 would kick ass! love that game.. played it a few times over kali...

    damn, half an hour ago I could have rattled off a long list of cool strat. games that I love.. now I oinly have those 2 :)

    oooh, and red alert.. how could I forget that.. that game is so much fun :) although I'm not sure it should be called "strategy".... the most commom tactic is building an army of tanks and migs and then battling it out until all of them are destroyed :)
    not that that ain't fun :)
