A great game of my childhood. I loved that you can mix turrets and units. Like a tank with a laser gun or the same tank with a rocket launcher, but both weapons can also be build on a atst like walker

How i wish to play this again. And how i dream about a Remake :D. Its so simple to build your own units modular, but its one of the best mechanics in games i ever saw. And unbelievable, one of the rarest oO.

In Computerbild Spiele 2/2000 it became game of the month (test result 1.49). A complete solution was published in Computerbild Spiele 3/2000. And Thandor is included on the CD in the magazine 6/2001 I played with my brother a lot.

This game had great mechanics and unit personalization. Awesome memories with it, I with it could be available as I can't make it run in anything further than windows XP
The game is part of german gaming history. Compared to C&C it has its own charm. I distinctly remember the narrator calling out the unit names. The soundtrack is great and the customizable options with the weapon types is a clever idea. This game would make a perfect addition to gog's library, especially considering you can't run it on modern systems right now.

I played a lot of RTS games in my early ages and i must say that Thandors research system of different weapons and then the combination with different unit-bases was a highlight for me. It allowed a bunch of customizable armies which i thoroughly enjoyed. Of course there were obvious better ones especially considering the pathing, but high replayability nontheless.
Those games also need your vote!

Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter
Breath of Fire: Dragon QuarterBreath of Fire: Dragon Quarter is a radical departure from the previous titles of the Breath of Fire series, and in some ways from standard Japanese-style role-playing games in general. The game is built like a huge dungeon crawler, with no overworld map. The combat is tactical: each character has action points (AP), which can be used to move around the screen during an enemy encounter, and perform a variety of combo attacks. There is no magic in the game, and many of the items found in dungeons are random. All the enemies are visible on screen. Depending on who first initiated a physical contact, the party or the enemies get an extra turn in battles. The game allows (and even encourages) the player to restart it from the beginning, keeping the items and the party experience. The game also features a special counter - Ryu can use his traditional dragon transformation abilities, but the counter raises with each such transformation, and when the counter reaches 100, the game is over. Raising the D-ratio allows characters to access new areas every time the game is replayed.
