Warhammer: Mark of Chaos
Pros:
Good Graphics, Good solid fantasy theme.
Cons:
Discontinued, demanding on computers.
The Bottom Line:
If you've been a fan of any sort of Fantasy game, such as Oblivion, I'd recommend you get it, for 30 bucks, it's also hard to get.

Author's Review
For years, Games Workshop(GW for short) has made Warhammer Fantasy widely popular, with your standard Fantasy Orcs, Undead, Zombies, Skeletons, Necromancers and various Dark Gods controlling the destiny of their followers.
This is the best translation avaliable from the Miniature Tabletop boardgame, to the computer, where it's easy to command vast armies of Skaven(Ratmen), Orcs(Greenskins), High Elves and Dark Elves, not to mention the Empire of man.
The Empire of Man's history is bloody, filled with Anarchy, Wars, Famine and the tragic fall of some men into the worship of Chaos, with many men willingly giving up their soul to aquire immortality, but there are those heroic soldiers of the Empire like Stefan Von Kessel who are simply trying to protect the Empire of man from the hordes of Chaos, and their Daemonic Followers.
With many units such as the Blood letters of Khorne, and the Plague bearers of Nurgle.
Nurgle is the Chaos god of rot and decay while Khorne is the one of battle and slaughter, later on, as one of the many Champions of Chaos undivided, you will be required to make a choice, on who to serve, edither Khorne, or Nurgle.
In the Empire Campaign, as Stefan, you will uncover a Conspiracy against the Emperor, Karl Franz from one of his own Elector Counts, and it will be your job to eliminate this threat.
