Sup SK.netters,
Took a quick browse and found this.
Apparently Silicon Knight's old-school title fantasy empires, is now considered Abandonware.
So, while I haven't tried to download this myself yet, perhaps one of you out there, would like to give it a shot, before I can.
Download, and review here

Also, at the same link can be found a review of the title, and it sounds pretty cool. Looks like SK were into making hybrids long before Too Human came around. Here is a brief snippet of what was said in the review.
"Fantasy Empire is a mix between RPG, turnbased strategy, and small-scale tactical battles where you directly control your warriors/heroes the RTS-way (this can be avoided by seleting "Simulate battles).
The game takes place in the fantasy land of Mystara, where "the dungeon master" (hey - I've heard that one before) has given you a challange (defeat your opponents as usual). Apart from that, the storyline doesn't matter - the "campaign" consists of different maps where you basicly do the same - command & conquer."
