Its Saturday, most of us are not working today so I thought I begin it with a link to one of the coolest games ever. I used to play it alot on my old C-64 and Amiga home computers. Defender of the Crown is a strategic game that takes place in England after the death of Richard the Lionheart. You are a Saxon prince trying to re-conquer England from the evil Normans.
At the beginning you chose one out of four characters which have slightly different skill sets which make some activities easier and others harder. After that you chose one action each turn and wait for the computer players to do the same. You could for instance buy more soldiers and conquer one of the free areas at the beginning, raid a castle, lay siege to castles, hold a tournament and meet Robin Hood who will give you assistance.
A classic game that brought back some childhood memories, damn hard though, hehe.

Update: Cinemaware has updated their website recently, and in the wake of this, they have unfortunately removed the Defender of the Crown game from their website. It cannot be played anymore there, but there is an alternative. Gamers can head over to the DosDose website to play the game online.
Your web browser needs to support Java to play the game there. Please also note that this is a copy of the PC version of the game which may be slightly different from the superior Amiga version.
Controls of the game are the following: You move around with the up, down, left and right cursor keys, use enter as the start and reset key, the z key for button A, and the X key for button B.
