Old Paradox Interactive games

[AgisTournas]

Dear sirs,
I would like to get some of the older titles of Paradox Interactive but it seems extremely difficult to find them.
Where can I find titles like...
- Legio
- Supreme Ruler 2020
- Diplomacy
...?

This post is from the Legio forum. At least the GG link is dead, but you could try to search for it. You could also try searching for it in steam.

Diplomacy I am pretty sure was a ageod game, so try there.

Regarding suppreme ruler then Paradox and the developers parted and the title went back to the developers.
As seen in this post it was still available a year ago; the post also contains a link, so try that.

Legio and Supreme Ruler were both published by us but the rights have now reverted back to the developer. Diplomacy was a product developed under a license (Hasbro owns the brand) and is no longer available for sale.

Kind regards

Thank you for your reply.
So, I suppose I can't get these games and the forum icons anymore, right?
Is there another way to get them that I am not aware of?

Basically, all you can do is hope someone is selling them on Amazon or eBay.

Sadly, it was us

I had the sad misfortune to be the producer on it, and did some programming on it.. The game was a good conversion of the boardgame, but our communicate with the AI through interface-language was not as deep as we wanted, and the AI turned out to be rather shit.

Luckily we don't sell it anymore, so I can't be embarassed of people playing it now. Its the only project I've ever done that was not profitable in the end. At least we did some nice progress on Clausewitz for it.

While Rise of Prussia and Two Thrones scored worse on Metacritic than this one, they at least were not such a pain even almost a decade after the release.

If you are a forumicon collector, there might be admins trading icons for beer if you can find the admins that do that

Well Diplomacy was not that bad, i mean the board game was better of course, but it was ok I actually bought a boxed version of the game several years ago, hence the icon. I know this will sound unbelievable, but i would really like to get a copy of both Airfix Dogfighter and Svea Rike2, just for the collector inside me I am almost certain the rights for the first one will have lapsed now and there probably is no English port for the second one, but i would really like to own them...Ans btw, i actually liked Two Thrones, at least for a game of the time it was released!

Two Thrones was a game we did in 2 months to save the company after Strategy First went bankrupt and didnt pay us on Victoria 1... It still has a place in my heart.

It was simple all right, but me and my brother both enjoyed it a lot for what it was, so thanks!

I found the obscure ones in my Icon quest via Amazon, and all of the one you mentioned and more I bought about 18 months ago.

EDIT
Just found new copies of Diplomacy on Amazon for less than I paid for it

I would be glad to provide lots of beer to anyone who trades icons that I don't have.
I work in a cafe, dear sirs!... Lots of free beer on your visit in Athens, Greece

I wish I could, but my financial aren't that great, as I have been unemployed for the past two and a half years.
Only last month did I get a new job and I am trying to stand on my feet again.
Maybe some other time
