Are the Star Wolves games any good? Also, is there any way to look through lists of steam package deals apart from clicking randomly on games to see if they are part of packages?

I happened to look at Star Wolves and see it also can be bought in a package with for $99:
Men of War: Red Tide, A Farewell to Dragons, King's Bounty: Armored Princess, UFO: Afterlight , Men of War™, Death Track®: Resurrection, Cryostasis™, NecroVision, Death to Spies, King's Bounty: The Legend, Death to Spies: Moment of Truth, XIII Century – Gold Edition, A.I.M. Racing, Classic Car Racing, Streets of Moscow, NecrovisioN: Lost Company, Star Wolves 3: Civil War, Star Wolves, Star Wolves 2, Theatre of War, Space Rangers, Space Rangers 2: Reboot, Theatre of War 2: Africa 1943, Theatre of War 2: Centauro, Theatre of War 2: Kursk 1943, Theatre of War 2 - Battle for Caen, Rig n Roll, Reign: Conflict of Nations, Fantasy Wars, King's Bounty: Crossworlds

A few of those actually look good. But this isn't just about THAT package, I can't find the package deals except for randomly clicking and it telling me a game is part of packages.

Also I'd love to ask this on steam forums but my login isn't working and the email password requester isn't responding too quickly. Nor can I reregister for their forums.

I've heard the Star Wolves games are pretty decent. There is a demo I think for one of them too. I wouldn't mind getting them myself. I would suggest waiting till the Summer Sale though before buying anything. It is suppose to start on on the 30th (2 days from now) from all the info that has been gathered from various sources indicating it will start then.

The Star Wolves games are in my Top Five games of all time.

They do have some awkward bugs, some of which can be game breaking, but they blend RPG elements with a rich 3D RTS combat engine and multiple story arcs which offer replayability.

They are also tough games, very challenging and rewarding to play through, even on the easiest of difficulty levels.

Highly recommended, if you're willing to take a little time and extra caution with the save function.

I hope you're right about the summer sale, I searched around for it and people on steam forums apparently been speculating on it for weeks, the date passes, they speculate a new date, etc.

The 30th has some actual good info behind it being right though. There has been a lot of dev blogs hinting/talking about the summer sale and a some having updates that roll out on the 30th and such.

It also makes the most sense (besides the 24th which was the time it started last year) since it will be the weekend before the 4th of July. While Valve doesn't throw American specific holiday sales, they do tend to do their large sales around them regardless and from their passed history when doing such sales they always start them a few days before the holidays date and end a few afterwords.
