Please, help me to choose a good and simple one.
Dark Colony
Most simple and most fun, perfect for beginners.

is indeed a good game and it's currently part of this bundle:Cossacks
I forgot to mention that I have got Dungeon Keeper Gold. As I've said, it looks pretty fun and easy, so I think I'm going to start it.
Is KeeperFX necessary for GOG version?

Not necessary but I wouldn't play without it.

Don't be fooled by the easy start and humour, DK gets pretty challenging later on.![]()
Commandos 2 is in my opinion a perfect game for what it is. Nothing missing or extra, everything as it should be. It's not a strategy by any stretch. It's a squad based RTwP puzzle/tactics hybrid.is indeed good game and it's currently part of this bundle:Cossacks

This also contains Cossacks games http://www.bundlestars.com/all-bundles/battleground-bundle/
Commandos looks interesting, but they were much cheaper on Steam some weeks ago.

My brother is playing Fable: The Lost Chapters right now. It's his first "Peter Molyneux game".
It seems that my 1st "Peter Molyneux game" will be much more challenging.
Hi, I've never played a strategy game and I want to do it. Which one should I start?
I have these ones:
- Jagged Alliance 2 Gold Edition
- Civilization III Complete
- Civilization IV Complete
- Medieval II: Total War
- Rome: Total War
- Company of Heroes
Please, help me to choose a good and simple one.
Bro, you've got a damn good selection, you could really start with any of these and have a good first strategy game.
Thanks.
Jagged Alliance 2 is squad-based and is more similar to an RPG. It's mostly on a tactical level, with very limited strategic layer. It's an amazing game, especially with the 1.13 mod.
Civ IV is the best Civ game. It's what I'd recommend as a first Strategy game. Civ is very simple, if it's your first time playing a strategy game it might be a big confusing at first, but it is really easy to learn and the in-game encyclopedia has all the answers.
You've got the two best Total War games there. They're not very complicated, especially since the AI is kind of retarded. Just load up whichever and start. Strategic layer is pretty simple, the focus is on battles.

Too late for edit:
Don't start your RTS gaming with the fucking JA2, it's got nothing to do with the classic Dune/Warcraft RTS archetype, it's complicated and nuanced and after finishing it (after 3232387284738 hours) you won't be any closer to understanding an RTS than if you'd played Zelda.
Uhm and now I realize you just said "strategy" not necessarily RTS, but I kinda took it for granted because that's the most basic kind of strategy as understood today (no..?)
Also, ignore the people saying Dune 2, they are massively pretentious or stupid. Dune 2 was primitive beyond belief by our standards, to the point wher you couldn't select more than 1 unit at the time. It's respected as being the innovator and stuff but in this case that doesn't mean it's good.
You'll have to play the old Warhammer: Dark Omen at some point. It's one of my top 5 favorite games of all time and I'm by no means alone in admiring it. It's challenging but easy to learn.

Agreed, but I think Dark Omen is very hard to run on modern systems. I think you'll need a Win 95 virtual machine (?)
Pretty brutal game for a beginner, or actually for any player, though.
