Burden of Command (2025)

The strongest fit if protecting people matters as much as taking ground. Fire lowers the enemy's morale so another squad can close, while leaders bolster and rally their own men. Check morale before an assault: an order can fail because the unit will not carry it out. This turn-based leadership RPG follows the Cottonbalers through WWII, with trust, dialogue and permanent deaths giving decisions a personal cost. Its historical photographs include severe material, so it also demands more emotional attention than a purely tactical sandbox.
