SpellForce: Conquest of Eo is fundamentally an RPG game played on a 4x-style map with tactical battles. It changes the way 4x games are played by tweaking the expansion and exploration aspect of the game, where expansion isn't the be-all-end-all, since you're limited in how far your domain can expand, and exploration carries throughout the game as you explore the map and find new quests. This isn't a Master of Magic or Civ-style game, so if it's what you're looking for I'd refer to those series, especially because the map is NOT procedurally generated, while quests, events, and some locations are.

If you want to try a fun and engaging game with a variety of interesting mechanics and fun, quick tactical battles, this game is a steal at this price point.
