Liquid War    
If you thought that the real time strategy genre was reserved only for games like Command and Conquer, Warcraft, and thier clones then you are about to be proven wrong.Liquid War is an RTS game like no other.
In Liquid War, you are given an army of liquid particles. You cannot shoot, and there is no money to build more soldiers (or particles). Instead, you must strategically deploy your army of liquid so that you can overcome your opponents army, and eventually make his army yours. This isn't very easy; Liquid War requires an incredible amount of foresight and quick wits. The key is to trap your enemy between two or more of your "squads" and leave him no way out, lest he will do to you what you are trying to do to him.
The computer is a very able opponent, especially if you play against more than one opponent, but the meat of the game is the on-line play. As of yet there is almost never anyone playing on the games servers, but perhaps (and hopefully) the game's presence on Gamehippo will change that. You can play with up to 6 players.
There are tons of maps to choose from in Liquid War, each which lends itself to it's own unique strategy and playing style. A couple of them I really did not like but as a majority the map design is excellent. You can also choose things such as map color and the like.
The graphics of Liquid War are nice, especially the underwater distortion effect, but nothing breathtaking.
Bottom Line: Liquid War is a breath of fresh air in the strategy genre. Highly reccomended.
