[edit2]
And yet another: Vantage Master Online. This one is a MMORPG by Nihon Falcom.

It's neither an MMO, nor an RPG. It's not even online. The "online" part in the title's name merely references to its head-to-head function through TCP/IP and LAN. The game has an (quite strong) AI which you can play against.

 

[Severian Silk]

Yes, that has been demonstrated already. On another note, I removed the Geneforge/Avernum series since I think after having played them they're rather light on tactics. You only control four characters, and battles rarely involve more than half a dozen opponents at most. I find I end up using the same buffs and attacks over and over again. I think BG2's combat encounters required more thought and planning on my part, despite the action-y elements.

FYI, Stellar Forces now has a new 'proper' URL: http://www.stellarforces.com

Myth II: Soulblighter

one of the better solo campaigns, but multi is the only way to appreciate combat

the 10+ year old community is still alive but currently between the two annual tournaments.

How about sorting alphabetically and adding the year of release?

 

[Severian Silk]

I'll try doing that. Thanks.

Also, added X-Commandos and Isochron.

[edit]
Should be alphabetized now, and I've added release dates for most of them.

 

[Steve16384]

Can I be a pedant and ask you to move Stellar Forces from the X-Com clones list and put it under "Other turn-based games - scifi". It's not really like X-Com at all (apart from being a Squad-Level Tactical Game of course) and more like Laser Squad.

Thanks.

 

[Severian Silk]

Listal and videogame geek have lists of games maybe port to them? Example; http://www.listal.com/list/rpg-world-tactical-rpg

 

[Severian Silk]

Those are all console games AFAIK.

 

[Dim]

2 are not, emulators, I was suggesting putting your list on one of these two sites. Pictures and links and rearrange them. VGG takes a wile to approve new games but has bunch of features to make up for it. Can I? http://videogamegeek.com/geeklist/138975/dota-like-aka-moba

 

[Severian Silk]

NO!!! THIS LIST IS MY PROPERTY!!

On the other hand, OK, whatever.
