Great answers from all of you guys!

Total War series games are too much war based - but I will remember them... after my empire building phase :twisted:

civilization 4 and the expansions. AMAZING game. One of the best strategy titles ever made. A little slow paced, but the empire building is absolutely addicting/super fun and VERY in depth.IMaBIOHAZARD

But what about the prequels in the serie? Which the best one? (I´m thinking about the third one...)

 

Pharaoh and Master of Olympus: Zeus are good city building games, although both have warfare to some extent and are slightly outdated in graphic standards.

Graphichs doesn´t mean anything. If the game is good, it´s good without super hyper ultra blaster graphics. That´s 110 % true and that´s why I´m not bothered when playing games such as Age of Empires (I & II), Empire Earth, Caesar III, Starcraft etc etc...

Master of Olympus looks interesting - I will check it out if I can find it.

Hi dudes!

Recommend me empire building strategy games. For long time I had been playing games such as Age of Empires, Empire Earth, Battle for Middle-Earth etc etc etc - but for now I wan´t just built a nice Empire. Of course there CAN be troops and the army side in the game, but a possibility to choose just building an empire.

For a couple of days I have been playing Caesar III - which is very good.

What´s your opinion? What´s the best empire building game? Why?

Thanks a lot :)
