This will be a war strategy based city builder set in the late medieval times, involving guns, dragons, giant animals, etc.
In the land of Terraria a great war was fought between the 6 races that lived in a precarious balance, until a new evil arouse, the Undead, who brought war to the (fairly) peaceful land, splitting the races into various factions, uprooting and dividing families, murdering innocents, and butchering armies. By now they have found their place among a dark alliance called "The Brotherhood" worshiping a dark god called "Azarith" while the other faction, called "The Order" fighting for what they call 'good', they worship a small pantheon of gods, too many of which to name. Both have been fighting for years with no end in sight, by now a hotly contested area of resources has been so scorched with angry blood and magic that is now a nearly uninhabitable badlands. Both sides have been working to restore it and blame the other, but still fight in it, so their motions to restore it are constantly ruined by their constant fighting.
Faction races
The Order: Elves "Nature"- Obviously, a nature oriented faction, using the animals to their advantage having a wide variety of mounts from Giant bears, to huge eagles. Though Frail and have lesser melee infantry Humans "Light"- A combination of Humans and their larger cousins the Giants, they have perfected the Chariot and heavy armor, and use it to their advantage in battle, but due to this, even their cavalry is slower in battle. Dwarves "Machine"- Focusing on their technological advances, the dwarves have a large variety of machinery like Iron tanks and Zepplins. But they lack any magic, being completely opposed to it.
The "Brotherhood" Undead "Death"- Having vastly superior troops, they can take a lot of enemies one on one, but they lack in numbers, they can start to become overwhelmed against a numerically superior enemy. Orcs "War"- being made up of Orcs and Ogres, both are the most brutish race, ogres being stronger and stupider, they have some of the best conventional weapons and warriors, making use of elephants, also investing themselves into alchemy as weaponry. Though they are the stupidest race, their tactics are sub par at best and cannot form coherent battle plans, being heavily reliant on their smarter dark elf cousins. Dark Elves "Magic"- they are a race heavily reliant on magic, having the best magic users in the land, but they have very little armor among their armies, mostly relying on either magic or speed.

actually huts don't give any population, they just house it, you gotta give them the day off (I.E. stall production and whatnot for the turn.) and they will make population by themselves
Leader Name: Zyger Foreststomper Age: 27 Gender: Male Race: Giant Bio: The Giants are of a large race and Zyger was born into it. He is of the ones dwell in the ancient forests of towering trees that even giants can hide in.

Fill in my sheet and I'll start.
On another note, I'm assuming Zombies aren't included in the undead seeing as you described the Undead as small in number, but strong individually which I guess would fit vampires... I'm not sure how undead works in this universe so do as you wish.

because it isn't zombie like infection, think of necromancers, and it isn't cheap to raise the dead, the spells and incantations required makes it simpler to raise them en masse, but not so big that it wouldn't be effective

to the immediate north a large stone deposit good for selling, and to the east, a small thin forest.

I search for a possibly good place for a mine. I also try to find a forest that could possibly a place to cut wood. If we do find a resource place I commence the building of the woodcutter and the mine. I also build a training ground. I also search for other tribes to unite/conquer. (I send 125 workers for the mine and woodcutter, 50 for the training ground, half of my soldiers to guard and the other half to search for the tribes. I might research in the category of Agriculture too.)

you find a large stone deposit, perfect for a quarry, as for a forest, you don't find one, but up north you find some sort of dwarvish deforesting operation, near a river where they take logs the float up from the actual forest, down there they are proccessed and are building...somethng, it's garrisoned by a large force, mostly axemen, but atop towers around the camp there are also men with some sort of wood and metal tubes, you hear stories from your undead brethren, very powerful weapons.
and you start on a training camp for 2,000 gold, and find no orcish tribes n the immediate vicinity
