I used to play RTS games like Warhammer, then got into Heroes of Might and Magic and its spin-offs like Pennon and Battle. I've also played XCOM 2 and Age of Wonders 4. Any other must-play series you'd recommend?

I'm getting into the Dominions series, recently picked up Dominions 6. You take control of a faction and try to spread your pretender gods influence enough to ascend to be the one true god. Combat is auto resolved but you can watch the combats and the mechanics are very detailed. I made a god that was a sentient glyph that bestowed fire resistance and flaming weapons on my faction of desert dwelling spider riders. Another time I was a sentient fountain of blood with innate abilities to raise an army of mindless skeletons so I could stack troops in masse.

Its a little clunky in the interface but once I learned what did what it because very engrossing

I can't get over the UI, in sure it's good like with Dwarf Fortress, but I would ask how long it took you to feel like you had a bearing on what was going on/fun?
