There was an old PC game called "Dominus". I don't really know much about it. My dad just randomly picked it up as an xmas gift one year for me. It was pretty sweet.
You're the lord of a kingdom that gets invaded by like eight armies. You have your own monster units you can deploy. You can deploy traps. You can cast spells. You can go down and fight hand to hand. If they make it to the throne room and kill you, it's game over.
If you capture enemy troops, you can interrogate them. There's a little animation where they get poked with a red hot iron poker. If you capture a leader, you can sometimes negotiate peace. If you capture an enemy mage, you can learn part of a secret spell. I never got a secret spell working, though.
It was super cool. Never met anyone who's played it.
