Re: the dream digital port of a board game: I've been dreaming forever of a Combat Commander: Europe port for iPad. It wouldn't be trivial but it would be amazing. That system just seems to go infinitely deep.

To Rowan's question of why the Caesar games' AI agents feel more capable than than those in SimCity: the answer seems to me to be transparency. The Caesar games operate on a more board gamey logic that becomes clear to we, the player. Just like Chris mentioned with Anno, we can plan ahead and make meaningful decisions versus the fuzzy decisions of SimCity.

Convinced of the Hex, Tom?
