What's a good TBS to start off with?

Okay. I already like RPGs, RTSs, Adventure and Shooters (Both perspectives). It's time for me to explore another genre.... with my background, what TBSs are good to start off with? I don't want something too complex, but I don't want something that's too simple either.

Also, if possible recommend one that's 2-3 GB at most and has a good campaign.

Total War of any type are awesome games... They are turn based on a campaign map... All are pretty straight forward going all the way back to Shogun... So you could play an older one (to stay in your 2-3gb range) and get the same experience... Basically you pick which nation/faction/family(rome only) and then you begin with a few regions under your control with the objective being total victory by becoming emporer/supreme ruler/shogunate through war and persuasion... not much story... but heavy diplomacy, warfare and city management... and turn based with 2 turns per year...

Not many other turn based games I can think of besides Civilization... but I am not a big fan of those games... to simple in my opinion...

So why not "start off" with them? Why own them and not play them?

I already am. What I want is a pure TBS.
