Let's talk 4X gaming and hybrids

For those who don't know what the term means, 4X refers to eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. These are games of strategy, generally on a grand scale and are turn based. Hybrids are basically the same thing only that there is some form of real-time strategy going on at some level. Examples would include Master of Orion, any of the Civilization series, Stellaris, Europa Univeralis, etc.

Which are your favorites, and why?

Are you a beginner looking to get into the genre?

Are there tips and tricks you would care to share?

Let's see where this goes! :-)
