Age of Wonders: Planetfall

You can even pull up battle replays from the very beginning of the match at any time (say if you forgot what loadouts your enemy units were using).

This means the game's combat has hundreds if not thousands of combinations and strategies in it that other games don't because they don't allow such deep flexibility.

I still really enjoyed the campaign though, and definitely think it's worth it to learn the game.

Visually, Age of Wonders: Planetfall impresses with its polished art style and detailed unit designs that effectively convey the distinct personalities of each faction.

Regarding a lot of the negative reviews: a lot of them, and I do mean a LOT of them are people with a serious skill issue problem, as I don't even play Multiplayer (and thus don't use their hyper optimized playstyles) and am still able to win the game on the highest difficulty against multiple opponents consistently.

You can play up to 12 players just like Warcraft, finally a game that understands multiplayer to extreme measure.
