Combat in this style is typically fought on a grid map that governs character placement and movement ranges. I like this definition: “Tactical turn-based combat is a form of combat found in games in which the combat is turn-based and emphasizes thoughtful placement and usage of the player’s units. Of course there are many other mechanics but are more about what each player looks for: randomness vs deterministic, hex vs square, puzzle-like feeling vs no best solution, etc. They all have 4 game mechanics in common: unit organization (for example a grid, radius), positioning and movement of all units (be able to Back-stab and Flank), turn based (or pausable to issue commands) and have a tactical battle/encounter layer. We are about tactical decisions on a battle/encounter playing field. We do include some sub-genres like Real Time With Pause (or Slowdown), Turn Based Rogue-likes, Tactical RPGs, Lite Wargames, Tactical Boardgames. Sadly many fans call our genre turn based strategy which also has games that don't have a tactical layer which isn't what we are about. We are NOT about strategy games nor traditional turn based games (ex: Final Fantasy 1). This group is about turn based tactical game GENRE that may also have a strategy layer.
AoW is kind of in-between these two, and Planetfall leans more toward civ-like.This Reddit is a backup of the main group. And sooner or later we will have Conquest of Elysium 5 (hopefully, this year), if you are more into "classic" TBS. Oh, and if you are into civ-likes (so-called "4x"), you may want to check Humankind (will come out in EA at April, no need to pre-purchase it just now, just take a look at it). But I just don't believe they can possibly fix multiplayer-related issues bugging their games more than 6 years, And TBS without working multiplayer has very limited lifetime. To be absolutely honest, TBS devs do whatever they like to their playerbases. There are\were multiple issues with it, and this is not slightest acceptable after my experience with AoW3. I won't be minding to give it a proper run, but netplay were been ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up since the very release. I don't know if you are OK with a full-price purchase after that.Ĭan't say too much about the game itself. And it was on -67% for complete pack intermittently since September on multiple platforms. The base game were given away multiple times on EGS and GoG.
