Observed alongside this lens
Why these games appear
Continuous-time tactical command focused on positioning and coordinated units in battles, with little or no economy or base-building layer.
Include when
Assign Real-Time Tactics when continuous-time tactical command focused on positioning and coordinated units in battles, with little or no economy or base-building layer. This must be a sustained, defining part of play rather than an isolated mode or sequence.
Leave out when
Exclude RTS games where economy and base development are central, and action games where the player directly controls only one combatant.
