I've never been a fan of strategy games on the PC. The turn based ones just aren't very good on this platform, whilst the RTS genre boils down to who can micromanage their units faster, in a powergaming orgy of 9.67 clicks a second. I'm a potato, not an octopus with jackhammer fingers.

If like me, you enjoyed things like advance wars and were born without the gift of being Asian, you'll find this game amazing, it's exactly what I've always been looking for.. Instead of using your brain to compute the fastest possible clicking pattern to achieve perfect micromanagement, everything here is down to planning.
You have 120 seconds in multiplayer, and forever in the campaign to manage your squad of six, and this squad of yours will get smaller very fast if you don't take your time.

Should you decide to buy this game (which happens to be a very good idea), I would recommend you do that in a retail store, or on your country's version of ebay. I got my copy for 19$ when it was triple that on steam.

And make sure you either play on Classic difficulty, or Normal difficulty with the Ironman setting. Don't be a sissy
