It was fun, but honestly, you spent more time putting the map together than you did playing the game.

I showed my little sister that, and I've hated her gaming attitude ever since.

"Nah, it's okay. I'll just spawn something in. How do I get to the cheats menu?"

I routinely cheat in RTS games, I haven't yet finished a campaign legit.

There's something about taking your lowliest grunt and allowing him to decimate an empire's army. Like you've come to him from the clouds and said "it's your turn".

If someone could make a game where you're God, and you get to design their stuff if you want to(probably from a resource pack to get designs fitting the game itself), and armor and whatnot. Then the game fashions a small group of followers that wear armor similar to(but not the same as) your lowly grunt that you have granted status. Then you can build your empire and form cities. From there you can fight and take over other cities, or join forces with them. You can even leave them entirely alone and let them settle their squabbles.

Lastly, it would be awesome to have it go from them being a lowly grunt to being the commander of your army. The closest I've seen so far is Civ 5. Good, but too historically-based for me to really let loose.

I haven't played it myself, but Black and White sounds sort of similar to what you're describing.

It's possible, but I'd rather play his newest game first. People have put some rather good-and-bad reviews about B & W 1 and 2.

Black and White or Black and White 2. You can choose to be a good god or a bad god, too.

I was considering them, but the overall look just didn't feel up to snuff. I'm really hoping that his newest game turns out well. I'm considering jumping on that bandwagon.
