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?

If you want to try an RTS that does something different, check out Against the Storm. It's an RTS, but there isn't an "enemy" so to speak. Instead, you are 'fighting' against the environment, trying to solve your economic and social problems before you are overwhelmed by external factors imposed by the level you are building on.

The game continues to evolve as your understanding of its various systems grows.

FWIW: It's currently in the Humble monthly bundle.
