I used to play RTS games like Warhammer, then got into Heroes of Might and Magic and its spin-offs like Pennon and Battle. I've also played XCOM 2 and Age of Wonders 4. Any other must-play series you'd recommend?

Add Warno too, it's SD2 but in 1989.
For some reason, Warno didn't grab me and Steel Division 2 did. That being said, I may not have given it a fair chance -- I bailed out on it after a short period of time, probably because SD2 was also available at about the same time. It is true that it's one of the few options out there with a late Cold War setting, like Wargame, so if you like that setting over WW2 -- which is refreshing -- it's certainly worth looking into.
IIRC, one thing that was a little disappointing was that the unit database was a lot smaller than in Wargame: Red Dragon -- I'd kind of taken that, which had been built up across multiple Wargame games, for granted.
Yes, but I do prefer the very accurate division system for Warno, and the absence of contemporary "prototype" units like the rafale.
