Default Good WW2 games ?

I am looking for a good WW2 game, preferably of the RTS kind. System specs are on the lower side with a P41.4 GHz, 128MB RDRAM (RDRAM sucks cause I cant upgrade cheaply) and a GeForce 2 MX 400. Can anybody here recommend one that'll fit my system ? I wont mind if the game is old, its gotta be good.

Also, ppl post your favorite WW2 game, regardless of sys specs.

[edit]wait - you might want to have at least 256Mb for both of those, especially the latter. Also, both being FPS (not RTS) you might not want to play them at all[/edit]

Check out Desert Rats vs Afrika Korps. I didn't like it too much, but it might suit your taste.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. vern I dont think Desert Rats vs Afrika Korps will work on my system. I have already played MOH:AA and loved it, it worked OK on my system (eye-candy turned off). I was looking for an RTS game and I am going ahead with chastity's suggestion and try both Close Combat and Silent Storm.
I will also try RTCW sometime soon.

There's a demo for the game called 'Panzers,' weighs in at over 200mb, but it's great fun if you like Blitzkreig

Thumbs up Good games

Battlefiled 1942 is a good Game if you are talking about WWII.
It is very realistic, and there is another game called Battlefield Vietnam.
Both game are from EA.
However, for these games you have to have a good video card for instance a Gforce fx5600 and up.

Battlefield 1942, you can buy the gold edition that comes with 2 expansion packsm that and the other 50+ mods in dev, beta that are out there, the forgotten hope mod is the most realistic WW2 mod on there, the ablity to fly/drive/land/sea/ground troops.

very very addictive game

I think i would recommend MOHAA and COD

I would really suggest upgraded the ram, it is detrimental to your gaming. i have a p4 1.7 with 1gig of RDRAM (pc800), when i added the last 512, it made EVERYthing better.

Most Used:
Genuine Intel(R) D850GB system board
Windows* 2000 version 5.0 Service Pack 4 build 2195
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1700MHz
Bus Speed 400 MHz
L1: Data Cache 8KB, Execution Trace Cache 12K Micro-ops
L2: Advanced Transfer Cache 256 KB
1,024 MB Kingston PC800 Rambus Memory
Ati Radeon 9800 256
1 120gb WD
2 80gb WD HD's striped
Sony Dual Layer DVD burner

How much did it cost ? I think that it would be better to buy a new system than invest in RDRAM.
