I consider it one simply because no one uses the term TBS (Turn Based Strategy) to describe a genre. TaskmasterJack Send a noteboard - 28/09/2010 03:42:42 AM
There's a few like that which maybe don't fall under a literal definition of Real Time Strategy that I lump in there anyway because their gameplay and presentation are so similar to an RTS.

So? How's Civ V? *NM* beetnemesis - 22/09/2010 04:08:25 AM 471 Views
So far I prefer civ IV *NM* Roland00 - 22/09/2010 06:32:05 AM 200 Views
Let it be known I haven't played any since the first day. Roland00 - 27/09/2010 03:18:41 AM 414 Views
I can't decide. I like Civ V combat better, but the other stuff... beetnemesis - 29/09/2010 10:00:45 PM 350 Views
That seems reasonable though Darth_Katie - 30/09/2010 12:20:23 AM 378 Views
I assume he means BlackAdder - 30/09/2010 12:55:58 AM 486 Views
Idk, I haven't played Civ V either. *NM* Darth_Katie - 30/09/2010 01:04:11 AM 202 Views
First time Civ player here. 30 mins of the demo still has me a little confused. *NM* Zalis - 25/09/2010 07:02:40 PM 190 Views
I think that's the nature of Civ. I tried CivIII and decided it wasn't worth the hassle *NM* LadyLorraine - 26/09/2010 05:35:18 AM 173 Views
Could you elaborate? *NM* BlackAdder - 26/09/2010 07:08:15 AM 177 Views
Is there a tutorial? TaskmasterJack - 27/09/2010 03:27:58 AM 364 Views
Yup, there are some basic tutorials beetnemesis - 27/09/2010 03:45:57 AM 364 Views
Yep. Seemed pretty bare bones to me. Zalis - 27/09/2010 04:18:34 AM 405 Views
Yeah it takes a while to really accomplish anything BlackAdder - 27/09/2010 06:37:20 PM 361 Views
The Civ series is actually my least favorite of the RTS games I've played. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 28/09/2010 01:47:03 AM 206 Views
Well I don't think it is an RTS BlackAdder - 28/09/2010 02:15:50 AM 361 Views
Well, by definition, it isn't. What with that "real time" bit and all. *NM* Ghavrel - 28/09/2010 02:48:02 AM 220 Views

*raises hand* I do. Legolas - 28/09/2010 10:19:26 PM 364 Views
The genre (sub-genre I guess) has it's own wikipedia page. That's official enough for me. *NM* Aemon - 28/09/2010 11:06:47 PM 379 Views
My favorite TBS was, oddly, Lords of the Realm II. TaskmasterJack - 29/09/2010 12:23:43 AM 357 Views
Similar to the game Diplomacy, then. *NM* Ghavrel - 30/09/2010 03:16:02 AM 178 Views
Me too, but not because of gameplay. Rather, because it lacks a campaign. Aemon - 28/09/2010 04:15:52 AM 343 Views
Europa Universalis doesn't even have victory conditions. *NM* Ghavrel - 28/09/2010 04:56:12 AM 225 Views
I will get back to you as soon as I can play it. AliasRY - 26/09/2010 04:39:18 PM 363 Views

Hahaha *NM* Darth_Katie - 27/09/2010 04:05:23 AM 182 Views
Yes. I walked right into that. *NM* AliasRY - 27/09/2010 04:25:38 PM 197 Views
