Hello, everyone. I was wondering if I can make a 3d TBS game with Construct.

So I have a detailed plan for a game which is basically X-Com but much much smaller in scale and everything. I have a background in Web and App development (not design) and am just wondering if it's worthwhile to spend time with Construct trying to do this. So what I am basically saying is that can Construct handle something like that? A 3D terrain where 3D models can move following the hex logic?

Construct doesn't do 3d out of the box, but you could do 2d isometric like the original xcom games.

Yes, you can simulate it as xcom did, but do note that it was extremely math heavy and not going to be very accessible for a beginner.

It depends on the scope of what you want to do really. Xcom actually simulated the path of the bullets and elevation and collision with intervening objects in a 2d engine. If you don't care about that then it should be significant easier.

As far as your specific requirement, no you won't be able to have 3d models in a 3d terrain. What you can do is like in Starcraft, model the units in 3d program, and export sets of sprite animations facing different angles to display in your 2d game.
