Hey guys,

I'm looking for a good turn based game to play while I do other stuff.
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas..

I've been using worms armageddon on and off for this for years but I wouldn't mind trying something else.

Back on my old macintosh in the early-mid 90s I played Panzer General, Imperialism, and Imperialism II, pretty enjoyable games.

Brigandine is for PSX and that was pretty fun also(after you turn off the slow ass animation.)
Im pretty good at whistling with my hands, especially when Im holding a whistle.

Advance Wars series (multiple titles for both GBA and DS) are some of my all-time favorite games, and definitely the best turn-based game I've played.

Some good series are: Advance Wars, Fire Emblem and Final Fantasy Tactics (the last two have RPG elements). You can also look at the Disgaea series which offer almost unlimited replay value (you can level your characters up to level 9999 or something ridiculous like that).

I could possible recommend more if you said what platforms you want to play turned base strategy games on.

XCOM UFO Defense and Heroes of Might and Magic 3 or 5 are seconded.

Oh, and also ADOM.

+1, it's amazing how badly they dropped the ball on 4 though, god that sucked.
