The Disciples franchise is a series of turn based fantasy strategy games, with RPG elements. While not as well known as some similar franchises, it has achieved a cult following, in particular for the Disciples 2 line released in 2002.

It should also be noted that Disciples 2 was never praised for having great enemy A.I., and the same is true of its successor, but the new tactical hex map highlights some of these weaknesses in more glaring fashion.
