I don't particularly like Civilization either, though it can be fun. Alpha Centauri + Alien Crossfire is great!
And I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Total War series yet. I should be getting Rome: Total War in a couple of months since by all accounts its a very good game.
I also wish that there were more squad-level turn-based games. I loved X-Com and Jagged Alliance. The new X-com game and Fallout: Tactics were just bad.
Edit: And how about the stuff from Paradox Game? Europa Universalis, Hearts of Iron etc. I've never played those myself but they have plenty of dedicated fans.

Rome Total war is FANTASTIC!!! The 3d effects in the battle sometimes made me forget was playing the game and not just watching a game movie 
It's not "turn based" when it comes to combat however just so you know.

Well, the type of games I prefer are Sci-Fi, and then war games. Fantasy comes after that.
