There seems to be a lot of games that have been ported to Amiga that I didn't know about. Have any good RTS games ever been ported? I would love to get a game like Age of Empires II on OS4.
I own Napalm, but it hardly works in OS4. Are there any other RTS games for OS4?
Warcraft II on Startagus/Wargus crashed on late campaign mission, can't remember since it has been a while, and I couldn't finish the game. There is a bug in current Amiga version (from 2005) which will crash the game after archery is upgraded to 3rd tier? Or was it a second?
Warzone 2100 was crashing for me on first mission and couldn't move on.
Augustus works perfectly, finished peaceful campaign and most of military. While it is not RTS, it's a great management sim. It tend to slow down for a bit when you have huge city built.

I couldn't get Warzone 2100 to work. Augustus is pretty cool, but for some reason my system always says it can't load certain assets so after I progress in the game it can no longer display some graphics and really becomes unplayable. Too bad, because I really enjoyed it.
Have you had success with that patch? I tried it and yes it makes the game work, however it doesn't work right. Especially if you play as the humans. The speed is too fast. The enemy AI is all over you with in the first 30 seconds, there is no way to play the game.
You are missing some of the files from original installation. I think am using files from my Steam account, but I do have original CD. Because I have Augustus installed on my main rig since I found about it, I just copied files over to Amiga.
Another good mention is VanillaRA/VanillaTD/Vanilla ConquerTD, look them up in OS4Depot. Didn't test them properly because of time, so I can't say if there are any glitches or crashes in the campaigns.
As @davebraco advised, DOSBox can be used as better alternative for some of the games.

Ok, I bought Caesar III from GOG I think. I will look into it. I was getting into the game and progessing, but that killed it for me. So it would be cool to get that working.
I was unaware of Dosbox so, I have to try to figure that out. But it seems like it could open the door to some more games.
