	Well... you seem to be on the right track... WC-Armada, U8, PS (I
found the combat of PS to be really pitiful compared to AOTP and even the
EGA dinosaur Battlehawks 1942).
	Sad truths constantly fill our mortal reality.

	Agreed.  The WC I and II and all its add-ons (except for the speech
pack) are an A-grade classic in the same way that Tolstoy's "War and Peace" has
become to the literary world. (Of course I am excluding the 2 WCA games).
	As for CGW's hall of fame... big deal.  Do real people vote for those
things anyway, or is it the reviewers?
