To anyone whos interested

This game and S2 was the reason for me nad a good few others I know failing my GCSE's! Id forgot about this game for 10 years or so and D/L'd it the other day, and have been wondering;
Does anybody have any reccomendations for similar games that are like this game but are more recent so the AI is better? Notice how the computer doesnt reinforce strategic areas with forts or doesnt mine to its maximum capability?
I like the way the emphasis is on setting up a good economy and logistics as opposed to the war side of it, The newer versions of settlers just dont do it for me.* I always hoped (when i was a kid) that there might be some way of getting the map sizes even bigger and having more players on a single game when pcs got better, any thoughts?
you could always take a look at the fan remake of settlers 2, called Widelands (http://www.widelands.org)

or an original graphical remake of settlers 2 from blue byte: DIE SIEDLER® II : Die nächste Generation (http://diesiedler2.de.ubi.com/game_galerie.php)

knights&merchants (http://www.knights.de) is somewhat similar too.
