If you haven't already seen or heard about it yet, Jon Shafer has left Stardock and started his own company. He's got a kickstarter for his first game At The Gates. Description:
It is the dark, brutal days of late antiquity. The Roman Empire is collapsing and the end of the world seems to be at hand. As civilization itself crumbles, you lead a fledgling barbarian kingdom which seeks to fill this vacuum of power and establish itself as the new master of Europe!
But it wont be easy. Ambitious rival kingdoms will stand in your way, and while the Romans may be weaker than they once were, they are still proud and formidable foes. However, external enemies are only one concern, and in these hard times even the land itself can be hostile...
Play as one of the barbarian factions surrounding the Roman Empires and expand as they collapse.
Here's a 15 min gameplay video:
