Strategy games with good story?

Warcraft has one of the most epic stories I've ever come across, but then I really do love the lore >_>
Of course, if they ever addressed half of the Lore that has been written for Warcraft in a game it'd be one of the greatest RTSs of all time. As it stands, the games let the Lore fall to the side too much D:
Warhammer comes in second in the lore department, I just wish they'd make more video games for it, since I'm not too big into tabletop gaming.
Third would have to be either Fallout Tactics, simply because I love the Fallout storytelling, or Starcraft thanks to the emotional depth brought to 100x100px animated gifs. XD

Does Final Fantasy Tactics fall into the realm of strategy? Because it had an amazing storyline. It's a bit incoherent at times, but if you're able to follow what's going on, it's absolutely engrossing. It's even better on the PSP, what with the improved translation and voice-acted cutscenes.
I second Warcraft, i am an Big Fan of Warcraft: Orcs and Humans and Warcraft 2(forgot the name) not played the 3rd one mind never got round to it, shame really.
Noting near JTBS okay? those are way to close to being RPGs.
World in conflict thats the one, I remember almost sheding a tear when the nuke went of, That was emptional.
Company of heroes story was decent but nowhere near the epicness of my previusly metioned ones.

Um, I vote for Warcraft, then. It's good stuff. Rivals Tolkien at times, I might even say.
If you liked the story of Homeworld 2, you should play Cataclysm (the third-party tie-in settled between Homeworld 1 and 2). The best story, and best-told story, I've ever seen in a strategy game (Yes, I have seen those Blizzard things... horrible, predictable cliché stories)nikomas1 post=9.71285.718839 said:
The Earth 2150 games (Escape From The Blue Planet, Moon Project and Lost Souls) had really great, well-told storylines.
Also, does Darwinia count as a strategy game?
