When I rarely play computer games, it will be Total War: Rome, Civilization III or or Combat Mission 2 (http://www.battlefront.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=58&Itemid=98) which would give Alex Panzie what passes for a hard on (Tigers, Panthers, T-34s, oh my!).

That said, wouldn't mind recommendations for PC games of the above ilk...
