To me, squad-based tactics and RTS or Master of Magic style games are different by Ice Cream Jonsey 11/14/2020, 10:04am PST
A squad-based tactics list would be fun because I am always looking for those games. I dunno. I think putting the word "strategy" around a list is so generic that anything could work. Almost all games have strategy. If I trade my quarterback for a first round pick in Axis Football 2019 I've engaged in strategy. We see this issue all the time with the term "interactive fiction" and now people are shamelessly entering in RPG Maker games into the competition each year. So that's just my take!
