After playing a bit of some of the games I'll list, I was wondering if there were more. Preferably against ai, but you can still list some multiplayer only ones too if you'd like.
Dicewars!This one's a classic and simple to play, up to 7 other opponents and a procedurally generated map and fast-paced action make this a fun one to play if you've got a few minutes.
The Great War of Prefectures!This one's set in Japan where every 47 territories are originally controlled by an individual faction, so on the first few turns many of them fall. This one's a bit more different than Risk. This also has a bit of real time strategy as well, as you can sorta control your guys in the battles. Every individual territory has bonuses, for example one that generates a certain troop after a turn. You can buy different types of troops and powers in battles and oh man, this is really worth a look at. [spoiler]
After you "win" some new islands pop up with a whole new boss faction you have to take down, good luck with that.[/spoiler]
Rise of Nations's Conquer the world mode!
This one you have to pay money for the game itself and pay all your time for since the main game of RoN is a 4X RTS similar to AoE but with more eras going into modern times. I haven't tried it out at all yet because I don't have the patience for that kinda thing, but I did watch some videos on it. Besides the in-game battles this is pretty much what I'm looking for and why I mentioned it. It's also historically accurate of where every nation starts out, but of course not so much of how it ends up. Also you can play as the Americans in ancient times.
