Why these games appear
Discrete-turn combat focused on local positioning, ranges, terrain, actions, and small-unit coordination rather than empire management.
Include when
Assign Turn-Based Tactics when discrete-turn combat focused on local positioning, ranges, terrain, actions, and small-unit coordination rather than empire management. This must be a sustained, defining part of play rather than an isolated mode or sequence.
Leave out when
Exclude empire-scale turn-based strategy and RPG battles where positioning, ranges, terrain, and action economy are incidental.
