This is one of my favourite titles: Syndicate Wars from Bullfrog. If you're not familiar with Syndicate, it's a squad-based real-time tactical game. You take control of a 4 mindless Agents (or Zealots, depending on your faction) over a long series of missions to achieve global dominion. Missions range from quelling riots, to assassination, espionage, and kidnapping. "Persuade" scientists to work for your company, knock over banks to fund your research, set up a profitable arms trafficking business, upgrade your agents into near-unstoppable cybernetic killing machines, and go to town! This is a fun classic, and very challenging. The 3D graphics with free-floating camera were very advanced for their time, and I still find them very enjoyable. This worked just fine for me on Windows '95, '98, and 2000, but I haven't tested it on XP or Vista.
