You mean the original Elemental: War of Magic? Have to say I skipped that.
Have you tried the newest one, Sorcerer King: Rivals? It looks like it lacks some of the customization that Fallen Enchantress has. Not really sure though.
Yes, that one - and good on you
No, I didn't try that one (SK:R). Looks interesting, but it's singleplayer only IIRC.
It's not a principle or anything, but I just don't enjoy singleplayer strategy games anymore. I don't find competing against AI very compelling (except as practice for coop/MP games later on) - as it's always such a predictable route of learning the ropes, and then simply exploiting its weaknesses.
I MUCH prefer playing with or against real people - as that makes games with the sophistication of 4X designs - or similar - that much more compelling.
Playing these games alone is tantamount to having sex with yourself instead of a partner
For fantasy 4X games - I still think Master of Magic is the best one. The closest modern games that I enjoy would be Endless Legend and Age of Wonders 3.
MM7H isn't exactly a 4X game - but I think it's underrated and really quite good, too.
