for what its worth, I think III is probably the best /game/ of the three, but the atmosphere of the first two (especially II) is hard to match

I agree about SOTB3 being the best of the lot. First one received most attention historically (and rightfully so), but I personally think they got better as the series went on, no.3 being a surprisingly good game (I dont think a lot of no.1 besides its audiovisuals). A number 4 for expanded a1200's (so as to be able to somewhat outdo the ocs games visually) could be cool, although obviously would need to be a homebrew type thing as I cant psygnosis/sony releasing software for 68k amigas in this day and age :-)
