Strategy Games

I...tried to play some strategy games, and I think I might be stupid? Like, I didn't understand what was happening in Crusader Kings 2 at all, even after NUMEROUS attempts, and Endless Legend was a non-starter when I decided to attack a village and got killed by a couple of jerk ogres. Why am I so bad at this?

Endless Legend

I'm really liking Endless Legend, even though I haven't yet gotten to the point where I've actually met another faction. The game looks beautiful, with a ton of variety in each of the units and abilities and even resources and it is almost overwhelming. The quest system helps to streamline your goals in the game, and the strategy is pretty solid in the usual places. I also really like that they changed up their upgrade system from the previous game by literally allowing you to equip each unit with magic armor and rings and stuff. That is such a fantasy world thing to do! Anyway, I'm going to try to make it through a game and figure out how you win, exactly, if I don't get distracted trying to get a delver unit to these ruins.
