I liked Crusader Kings. Same studio (right?). It's more RPG focused. Having an army mustered is expensive. There's also Europa Universalis, same studio again. S

  Great :-) Yes, those are Paradox games. Hearts of Iron - HOI(4,3) is more of a modern warfare game: you manage supply, manpower, combat lines. Crusader Kings - CK(3,2) is more of a roleplaying game: you manage your family, dynasty, vassals, religion, personal traits, and personal/family scheming. Europa Universalis - EU(4,3) is a game that combines a bit of everything: you've got internal affairs, foreign affairs, bit of warfare, technology, colonization, discovery, market trading, ... Stellaris is like EU but in space. With scifi tech, federation, diplomacy and mythical/intriguing events Victoria is more of an economy management game along with a bit of warfare and political fun. They're all good games that can take a few couple of hours to have fun with. People usually joke that it's like playing with a map and some coloured paintbrush ... Paradox has some other nice titles too. I think "Tyranny" and "Pillars of Eternity" is Paradox too but might be wrong. Those are RPGs (think Neverwinter Nights, Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, ... kind of RPGs)
