	What Paradox game are you playing these days? Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

I'm playing EU2. My second game. As England, Age of Exploration (1492 start) vanilla 1.08.

Im enjoying it, though not as much fun as my Spain game. I think Ive been at peace too long. I suppose I should go after the Iroquois and the Creek soon.

I'm not playing much games these days as I use to, it has been so much other things to do, but when I play, it's much CK and EU2. In fact, I started a game as Poland 1492 yesterday. It's been a while since I touched EU2 now, so I feel my skills(which were somewhat mediocre at best) now is a bit rusty...

I think the thread title should be game(s) are you playing, but that is a moot point.

As for myself, I am greatly enjoying Europa Universalis 2, like LotM, I have only played a few games (Scotland complete, I stopped Venice with 1 1/2 years left, but I intend to finish it, and I am currently playing Brittany in 1802...in addition to Portugal on my work computer, but it is around 1550 or so in that game and I don't get to play it very often).

I recently loaded Victoria and was impressed. Although it has a similar interface to EU2, I have played about 30 years (and 30 years in Victoria is alot longer than 30 years in EU2) and I have yet to fight in a war, though I did join one at the request of my allies, I was in the war in name only. It is very different from EU2, with a lot of different choices, and much more micromanagement, most of which I have yet to figure out

Comparing the 2 games I will say that EU2 had me reading the manual because I eagerly wanted to know more about the game, whereas I seem content to plod through Victoria (and as a result I am not doing as well as I could be I suspect)....though playing as France I started out as a leader and still am.......2nd place right now I think.

I would like to try Crusader Kings, but not only is it likely beyond my computer, but still out of my price point as well.

	Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Happily playing EU2. I have tried CK but could not get into it. It's rather different to EU2 and, IMHO, has some fairly serious flaws, so I went back to EU2. CK2 might be good.

I will almost certainly try Diplomacy when it comes out.

	Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

CK is pretty different, but try out the latest beta if you haven't. CK pre and post the beta patches is two totally different games, and beta has made it much better.
