You might want to try Battleforge. IIRC the tile is free todownload now (you just pay for more card sets).

Supreme Commander 2 and Sins of a Solar Empire work great. the HUD is on the center monitor, and the other two arent distorted. Other than that...idk

I gave World in Conflict demo a try, but it just crashes on startup. Supreme commander demo works no problems, so I might get the full version of that.

I had similar issues with the WiC demo. I grabbed the full game on sale and found that the numerous post-release patches to the retail code did a great job stabilizing and improving the engine. If you want the game and find it cheap somewhere it might be worth a purchase.

Anyone tried the BFME2/RotWK Triplehead mods in Eyefinity? The name says Triplehead but it should work for EF as well. It does have a stretched HUD and a couple menu issues IIRC, but is very playable. Learning some keyboard shortcuts could even enable gameplay with the HUD turned off most of the time. See link in my sig for the mods.

I must admit, eyefinity kind of sucks for competitive play. Few games if any have an optimized HUD for landscape. And Bezels are so intrusive in portrait mode.

Scrolling can also be a pain.

I'm almost considering buying a 30" down the line strictly for RTS's. But I first want a big ass HDTV first and a PS3.

I guess it's really just a question of preference. I have no problems in portrait mode, and love it.

Supreme Commander 1&2 work well.

My favourites are ...Faces of War, Men of War and Men of War Crimson Tide.

This is an excellent WW2 series of RTS that runs on triple screen natively.
