I am not sure if this is the correct thread or not for this topic, but here it goes. I am looking for a game, so far, No one in the 30 threads all over the net has been able to give me the name of it. I have tried to rmember it as best I could.

Single Player, Lan, and online I think.

It is a RPG/ RTS game. PC game

Races = Trolls, , dark elves, humans, & more that I can't remember

Races did have male/female in their rts units and etc.

1st & 3rd Person

Character creation lets you choose male/female of the race you want. for your main character.

You can rpg and adventure, getting items and etc and it saves your stuff, then you could use that same character and gear in rts wars.

IT had graphics like Dungeon Keeper 2 Graphics mainly, similar to NeverWinter nights & Giants : Citizen Kabuto characters, kinda a little blocky.
The graphics might be before neverwinter nights and kabuto, most likely.

Was featured once in one of the game magazines as a half page or maybe a full page.

Probably about 15-20 year ago.

No it is not Spellforce, Battlecry 1-3, Kingdom Under Fire. Neither of them matches the graphics.

I would appreciate any help if you know the game, or any information about the game I am describing.

The first Kingdom Under Fire game, perhaps?

I have it, its not it. It has 3d graphics for the units. Thanks for trying.

EDIT: Nevermind, I am blinded by my advanced age and cannot read.

Knightshift? https://store.steampowered.com/app/254060/KnightShift/

I do not think it fits perfectly but maybe it was Saga: Rage of Vikings?

Edit: I'm adding also Rage of Mages to my list of guesses.

It is not Knightshift, I also have it. I have not played these two games before, so I will be adding them to my colletion, but neither of these two are the one I am looking for.

Possibly one of the Disciples games?

GET OFF MY LAWN!

They were TBS, so I think not... :(

Maybe one of Warlords Battlecries? But I do not remember if there was gender selection.

Ah crap. Need to join OFP in the old folks' home.

What? I can't hear you!

I hope you're a plum tree, cause we'll be needing that prune juice.

Another my guess: Dungeons & Dragons: Dragonshard

Looked at Disciples also. Its not it.

Try older and blocker models of the dragon shard, similar to dungeon keeper 2 models.

Okay, there was 3rd person and first person also in the rts. I hate to do it, but going to google images again. Might get lucky after another couple of hours.

Was it Birthright: Gorgon's alliance?
