Define your idea of strategy.
I have been putting some thought into a turn based strat/rpg, its mostly ideas on written up on paper though.

starcraft clone basically.

we should probably write in a language which
- is easy to learn to allow a large developer pool
- has a graphics/sound/input/networking library
- fast development

my vote is obviously python, but i can learn anything. no lisp plz.

C#  :)

If we go 2-d, System.Drawing is fine.  If we want 3-d, Managed DX9 is fine too.

2d. We could use 3d models rendered in 2d, though.

A 3d game simply won't happen.

but the real question is, will it cleanly interoperate with real Starcraft? ;)

Naive?  I'm aware of the complexity of such a suggestion, and made it in seriousness.  Besides, it'd be fun to see you try. :)

So don't learn a language.  Be an OOP designer or something.  Draw us pictures.  ;)

I think a game would be the most fun, but of course there's other stuff we could do.
