Battle Brothers is a gritty turn based strategy game in which you lead a band of grizzled mercenaries to greatness.
Collect contracts from dirty peasant and later on wealthy nobles as you travel the land fighting everything from lowly bandits to ferocious monsters.

This game is great.
It starts off hard as you build up your mercs but it gets progressively easier as you gain better loot and contracts that offer more gold.
It takes a while to learn the mechanics and realise what traits are good for when, but once it all clicks its super satisfying.
You start to get attached to your dudes and it genuinely sucks when you lose one of your best guys.
Your mercs also interact with events and each other in different ways based on their backgrounds.
These interactions are described through incredible writing that feels so natural for the setting.

My only complaints.
Sometimes important battles are lost simply because you had bad RNG. The game lets you negate RNG to some extent with traits and equipment but there is always the chance of missing a crucial 90% chance.
You see most of the missions after your first playthrough and they get very repetitive after that.

Also this game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hard.
Recommended for people who like strategy games and hate winning.
