    Hoi4 Black Ice?

    While I love the Total War combo of strategic map play + in the field tactical control, I think there are a good deal of map games even more technically complex, but they are incredibly niche.

    Starcraft is an RTS with no real grand strategy, I don’t think that counts as a ‘map game’.

      I know that they are quite different, my point was that I don’t play those more complex games and usually prefer other genres. StarCraft was an example of that while limiting it to the Strategy genre as a whole.

        Sorry, I didn’t fully read all of the comments you’d made before, and my inner nerdsplaining came out.

        That and I’ve been awake for… 36 hours now? Hooray for incredible pain.

        That being said, StarCraft is great!

          Oh, I was just answering the comment, didn’t realize I made the “limiting to strategy as a whole” remark in a different one.

          Well, after 36 hours it’s well about time to finally get some sleep.

            I was finally able to sleep!

            Torn and dislocated tendons suck.

              Oof. Ouch. Owie.

              That sucks big time. Didn’t get any drugs for the pain? Hope you get well soon.

                Hah!

                I have acetometaphine from Walmart.

                I was homeless for months after being assaulted in my own apartment, held hostage there for a week, guy trashed the place, I managed to escape.

                Without my wallet. Or phone. Or keys.

                My credit is now ruined, that guy did 30 days in jail and let right out and went back to terrorizing me.

                Couldn’t work, got evicted, barely managed to hop from motel to motel after getting SSDI payments instated while homeless.

                What I need is world class physical therapy, what I can afford is uh, maybe when Section 8 kicks in, maybe I will be able to get an apartment and then actually have credit companies believe I am me so that I can then have the luxury of spending 3 years doing nothing but paying off debt.
