Operation Darkness on the 360 is pure tactical RPG. Like FF Tactics only the battles are about 10 times more time consuming and the levels are massive for a tactical rpg. I didn't care for it, but I don't care for tactical RPGs at all. Sounds like it would be up your alley though.

There are lots of Fantasy strategy games for PC, both turn based and real time.

Here are the ones I can think of atm but there are more.

Turn Based:
Heroes of Might and Magic series
Kings Bounty
Age of Wonders series
Blood Bowl (both real time and turn based)

Real Time:
Warhammer series (Shadow of the Horned Rat, Dark Omen, Mark of Chaos)
Warcraft series
Lord of the Rings
Stronghold: Legends
Battle Realms

+
good ol' dungeon keeper 2
Hero Quest (*muahahaha* for old DOS games)
Spellforce (+expansions)


....meh and I hate to name this in the same post... but if you played FF tactics... have you tried Unlimited SaGa as well (PS2)?

Not so strange considering he asked for Fantasy Strategy.
Diablo is not strategy and starcraft is not fantasy so neither of them fit to the original question.

Oh, JdA was already suggested.

If you own a Nintendo console as well, check out Fire Emblem. Great games.

I dont, but my psp is hacked to emulate them.

If you can emulate I would suggest:

Shining Force (MD/Genesis) or the CD version (MD/Sega-CD) & Shining Force 2 (Genesis)
Fire Emblem & Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones (GBA) and if your DS emu works good enough: Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (NDS)

Played all of those :D

kings bounty is a NES game isnt it?
Well no I was talking about the 2008 remake not the 1990 original. But the original was not a nes game either. Lots of platforms incl the megadrive but not nes.

I'm playing King's Bounty: Armored Princess now actually.
The music is superb. Leave it to the Russians to ensure success.

Epic.
I just started playing this myself and immediately fell in love with it especially the music. Best of all, it's in ogg format and seems like it also came with music from the first game as well. I'm in love... :D

Brigandine on the Playstation!!!!!! That's one of the most underrated Tactical RPG IMO but as someone said: it's either a love it or hate it type of game.
If you don't mind playing "blindly" checkout the Grand Edition version of the game (japanese only with partial translation mainly menus).

I own a sega and the only 2 games I have for it are these 2 games.

I play them about once every 2 years. lol

I've had 1 Megadrive for more than 10 years and the only game I had was Shining Force ... It was an import so had a converter cartridge for it too lol
Only 2-3 years ago I started buying other games heh
