I like XCOM, but I don't care for the genre as a whole.

So 6 I guess

Top one is probably Civilization . Honorable mentions: Heroes of Might and Magic, Age of Empire, Fantasy/Panzer General. Genre bleeds into the vein of Xcom, final fantasy tactics, and fire emblem but some people delineate those as a separate genre

do advance wars and fire emblem really count? When I looked it up I just got civiization and might&magic and other similar games which seem quite different from something like advance wars to me

advance wars is definitely super good though

I think Advance Wars counts as a legit TBS. There's enough of an emphasis on resources (gold/income/upkeep) and critical locations (cities) in addition to the actual units brawling it out.

FE/FFT lack a general resource management during the battles (unless we count FE's weapon durability) nor is there stuff like unit production.

since when TBS is about resource management? dont mix up RTS and TBS.

The flagship games of the genre all feature resources and not simply just "use your guys to kill the other guys"

See also: "Crusader Kings" or "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"
