What strategy games encourage the extensive use of unconventional/irregular warfare?
>>1748494Depends on the specifics. If you mean like mechanically the only option you have is guerilla shit, as you are the underdog in the fluff: X-COM 2, Highfleet, Rebel Cops, etcIf you mean like there's one faction that's more regular, while another is like irregular: Star Wars: Empire at war, Command and Conquer: Generals, most 4x will have diversified faction, etc. Or do you mean like neither and just like autsitc level of Guerrilla tactics build in?
>>1748494Basically none because the war part of strategy games is usually woefully underdeveloped.
>>1748494None, because gorrilla warfare is useless, irrelevant and the only reason anyone ever is said to lose to it is because of foreign interference or outright boredom
>>1748533i smell well done burger
>>1748494mountain blade, total war if you call abusing ambushes as unconventional warfare
>>1748533Militaries still suck at irregular warfare to the point the best they can come up with is genociding entire populations and even then they sometimes fail.
>>1748494Arma 3 antistasi. But you play it as a singleplayer RTS.
>>1748503>Depends on the specifics.I wanna larp as one of these niggas.
>>1748876>GiapFor him specifically:https://www.moddb.com/mods/the-nam-vietnam-combat-operationsIt's a Mod, but it's okay if you can go past the old as fuck UI.
>>1748535Oooooooof
>>1748531What do you mean?
>>1748494OG Dune, XCoom (depending on the game and what unit types you like running), pretty much any stealth-em-up Commandos clone, etc.
>>1749238I mean there's little detail in what you do. Move your guys to attack the other guys. There are games that are somewhat autistic about it but usually you lack supply systems or cover/stealth or the ability to set traps or the ability to go into buildings/on roofs/in trees, and so on. Even if they are more realistic in some aspects, they lack in others. Xcom type things are the closest, but there's probably some fps or survival game that would be better than strategy games.
>>1749255OG XCOM is interesting, because technically both XCOM and the Ayys operate like guerrilla fighters.
>>1748533What foreign interference was there in Vietnam except your own, valued burgerbro?
>>1748494Original War in AM campaignCossacks 1 and American Conquest are entirely build on this concept, where you often not as much as can, but must fight it irregular and guerilla-style
>>1749348Nta, but the entire war was a foreign interference. North Vietnam was officially out of war. So was Soviet Union. So were the Chinks. The actual war was fought in the South Vietnam, predominately using North's soldiers and Soviet equipment.So... yeah.If you want extra-irony, there is always Afghanistan, where Yanks ended up fighting people they've supplied with weapons 20-25 years earlier
>>1749956Almost indecipherable ESL-speak.>North's soldiersPrecisely. The US fought Vietnamese and some Cambodians. Now either the sheer military might of Cambodia made them tremble or perhaps the guerrilla tactics just had a decent amount of effect. Again, the only foreign interference was by the Americans themselves.
>>1749348>>1750100>historical revisionism commie apologistUSSR was not only supplying its tech to commie Vietnamese but also also sent its "specialists" there.
>>1750100Retard
>>1750238So where were the thousands of soviet troops in vietnam again?
>>1750926In the same dustbin as the British Empire
>>1749238CA gave up improving Total War after 2009, just as Empire broke the series sales record but also the fanbase by being an unplayable bug-fest.
>>1748533>gorrilla warfare is useless, irrelevant and the only reason anyone ever is said to lose to it is because of foreign interference or outright boredomI was going to make a joke about how the British gave up 'merica because they lost interest. Then I realized you were right and remembered how it was the Kingdom of France who bailed out the Americans and saved their asses. So you're right, the American Revolution only succeed because of foreign interference.Remember to give praise to France every 4th of July. Oo-Fran-Cais, Oo-Fran-Cais, Oo-Fran-Cais!
>>1748494RUSE, surprise attacks are a big part of that game
>>1748494I would imagine it's hard to code an AI that would be good at surprising you or alternatively capable of being surprised. The only game I've ever played that gave me the feeling of unconventional warfare on the attacking and defending side is Squad's invasion gamemode. It's an FPS but it captures the feeling of being an inferior force but having superior positioning and vice versa quite well.
