Default Re: What other games complement your Dominions 3?

UFO:Afterlight was only $10 on Steam so I got it and I've been playing it for a week or two now. As was pointed out the sqaud combat is really nothing like XCOM. Its more run-and-gun shootouts relying more on equipment than planning/strategy which is a disappointment. But I found the strategic level game in terms of construction & research to be similar to XCOM and enjoyable. The resource model (which replaces budgeting) is an interesting change. Overall I'm enjoying the game pretty well. May try and look for mods that beef up the AI tactics but I'm not super hopeful.
