Commodore computers did not (cannot) run Windows 3.1. Did you play this on a Commodore computer, or a Windows computer? Actually, I think there were IBM-type PC's sold under the Commodore brand in Europe by the company that bought Commodore after it's bankruptcy (it was Escom btw, a German company ...

I'd say it's pretty definitely:

Woot? Not Lords of Magic? I was so sure about that... The thing I have trouble fitting into anything is the real-time battles. They just don't ring any bells (other than Lords).

Could it be Cutthroats? http://www.mobygames.com/game/cutthroat ... -high-seas

Could it be either Stars! or VGA Planets? Both are multiplayer space strategy games, but I think you could run Stars! as a local game too. For the life of me I can't seem to find any screens from Stars!, but it looked a bit like a crossover from an excel sheet and a star map. VGA Planets (http://www...

Wings 2 is a great game. I love it. If you like strategy games you could try Battlemaster (http://www.battlemaster.org). It's not very easy to get into, but the community is very active and the world has existed for ages so it has a pretty colorful history. All the betrayals and rebellions you can t...
