I'm looking for a very specific kind of game experience /v/. The best way to describe it is to use the 2 best examples of what gave me this feeling.
The first was a campaign in the Heroes of Might and magic 3 Mod : In the Wake of Gods. In the scenario "A life of A-D-V-E-N-T-U-R-E" autistic modders where you get a single unit and you actually have to think about terrain and how to tank hits, since your units are never replenished the way Homm 3 was built around. Instead you have to micro manage a set amount of units in order to get by and the addition of 2 level 2 shooters changes things.
and this got my dick really hard
The second example is the custom campaign in Warcraft 3 called Chasing the Dawn. Same as above, micro managing a few units and where a death will set you beck and 2 will make the scenario unbeatable. The sense of achievement of solving a combat puzzle with all your limbs intact is amazing to me the atmosphere is dope and is an added bonus
I've tried BG, XCOM and FE, standard /v/ shilling, but those games never really got close to this specific feeling I'm looking for.
