Spent quite some time trying to think of an old game that I played 5-6 years ago, it's likely a bit older than that but just to give you an approximation of what time period I'm guessing it would have been released.

I don't remember much of it, but the things I remember were:

It was a turn based strategy game.
Ending your turn cycled through "elements" and you could choose any one of those elements to be yours (think basic elements ie Earth/Air/Fire).
You could have heroes but also any basic unit could move without a hero.
Movement paths were little orbs above the ground.
I believe there were also a group of non elemental AI that moved around too and could pick off wandering scout parties.
The landscape was very hilly, but seemed very basic for 3D.

Sorry I don't have much info on it, I've been racking my brains trying to remember more details about it, but all I remember was having fun picking earth and having lots of dwarfs and super powerful armies. Thanks in advance for even reading this, even if you can't help me. I'll answer any and all questions that I can!

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but maybe it could get the ball rolling? It's a turn based game, there are elements to pick (and earth usually means dwarves I believe), and I recall following 'orbs' when you move your character.

Hope it helps!

Yup that's it. Wow, and to think I spent 4 hours fruitlessly searching. I hadn't thought it was that old, but you're right. Thanks man. To anyone who's interested in great old RTSs you gotta try this one out.

<3 you ZombieGrub.

Damn... Used to play that game when I was like 6 years old. It felt so badass to fly with that big bat thing that Death had.

Yes, and the game would nearly always side with him in auto calculated battles which I assumed was a holdover from the campaign since he was the enemy boss. I remember just flying him around and winning the game that way.
