Pros
This game reminds me somewhat of Fire Emblem amongst many other strategy games and brings different elements from the best of the turn based strategy genre. This is definitely the best FREE game i have played so far on CNET.
Cons
It makes you wonder if the creators had some big companies just how far this game could have went, right up there with the Heroes of might and magic, Age of Wonders, and so on.
Summary
This game is turn based strategy at its best and is definitely worth the download! I would have shelled out $30 easily for this gem. This game is the Tom Brady of CNET, it might be picked in the last few rounds but is definitely full of Pro
Bowl potential!
This is a game better than any you will pay for.

Pros
Its the best turnbased strategy game I ever tried. It relies on a great amount of strategy. The campaigns are great. The music is moodsetting. Has great multiplayer potential. Nice and balanced sides and a good AI. It´s just overall great.
Cons
It makes you feel dissappointed at other gamedesigners. Surely they can make more games like this.
Summary
Great for freeware

Pros
Graphics are WarCraft II-like. However, since it is turn based that makes units easier to control and level up :)
Cons
I haven't found any.
Summary
The Battle for Wesnoth has several campaigns and has a nice tutorial for beginners. I highly recommend this game.
PERFECT GAME
