With invading armies positioned at the borders of your homeland, you'll need to take command of a wide variety of ground, air and naval forces to defend your home and survive the war. The terrain and weather play important roles during your tactical and strategic planning, and you'll be wise to take note of those factors before deploying your units.Advanced Wars is one of the classic strategy games that are nintendo-only. With over 100 maps and stages to play, you'll definitely have hours to sink into this game.
Sid Meier's Civilization III
Sid Meier's Civilization III is a compilation of the third iteration of the award-winning grand strategy game franchise, Civilization, as well as all its associated DLCs, namely the updated and enhanced multiplayer expansion in Civ 3: Play the World and new civilizations, scenarios, and features in Civ 3: Conquests. The game definitely improved on its predecessor by a mile, providing players with basically more ways to play. Due to this, the game has a depth that surpass the other games the franchise has produced.However, its multiplayer has been suspended but if you like, you can still play the game on LAN. Not to mention, many other aspects of the game, like the graphics and some of the features, are becoming rather dated as well. So, unless you plan on playing only single player or on LAN, you might want to grab a slightly newer version of the game if a deeper gameplay is what you crave.
