Probably any game from the Grigsby series since they're less games and more realistic army level commander simulators.

Go with the Avalon Hill Civilization, not the Sid Meir one.

Just bought this from GOG, how is it /his/? Wanted history + XCOM. I've heard it's not very historically accurate but whatever, more games need this setting.

It's not historically accurate since:
1) It's alt history, you're not Cortés but a conquistador who reaches Mexico before him.
2) Square tactical battles means you're a party of a few explorers instead of a group of a hundred. It's implied you have servants and stuff but you never really interact with them.
3) Gender equality issues.

It's a great adventure/survival game though, very entertaining. If you can read spanish get the spanish version, the random spanish words in the original version are a bit retarded imho. The atmosphere is great and the soundtrack solid. I love the art personally.

Are all the games proposed old because they did better history-related games back then or are people just nostalgic?

The total war series depicts warfare very accurately.
