Why these games appear

How entries qualify

Large-scale strategy in which a state, empire, or political entity is managed across military, diplomatic, economic, and often historical systems.

Include when

Assign Grand Strategy when large-scale strategy in which a state, empire, or political entity is managed across military, diplomatic, economic, and often historical systems. This must be a sustained, defining part of play rather than an isolated mode or sequence.

Leave out when

Exclude battle-scale tactics and conventional 4X games when state-level political, diplomatic, military, and economic management is not the persistent focus.
