Real-Time Strategy.

Because I like to think, plan and learn and do multiple things at the same time and sometimes on extremely large scales.

Yeah I get ya on this, that multitasking that becomes like a juggling monkey of activity in your brain is pretty amazing. 

How deep do you go? Starcraft or deeper like Civ or perhaps even deeper like Stellaris or Europa Universalis. Damn I wish I had the patience to stick through a campaig in Stellaris, it's so much fun. 

StarCraft is definitely amazing. So is Age of Empires... Which I was playing on Zone.com back in 1997 online using my super speedy 28.8kbps dial-up modem. (Comparatively my internet is now 100Mbps which is 100,000Kbps or 3,472x times faster!)
Amazingly us Australians got a free copy of Age of Empires in our breakfast cereals at one point as well.

Civilization isn't real-time... But I do love my turn based strategy games, most notably Alpha Centauri and Master of Orion 2, they are almost perfect Turn based strategy games in my eyes if you can get past the dated visuals.

But games like Total Annihilation, Dark Reign, Sacrifice, Battlezone 2, Command and Conquer, Dungeon Keeper, Company of Heroes, Homeworld, Dune 2000, KKND (Krush Kill 'N' Destroy) definitely float my goats... And Sins of a Solar Empire I rank stupidly high.
