I've only played a few missions because free time is precious at the moment, but after my exams I intend to get stuck into this fully. I also imagine it's much more fun playing against other humans than it is playing against AI.
Quite often I've wished a game similar to this existed so I'm quite happy with this. But I do wish there was an RPG element with you equipping gear for your troops, and have them gain experience and level and all that nerdy stuff that would potentially break all the games economics.
Here's a video of someone being far too enthusiastic about this computer game:
Pertinent quote from pertinent review:
On occasion, it can seem cruelly, impossibly difficult, but a lucky turn, a sudden brainwave or (most of all) a gut feeling about what the enemy's going to do can dizzyingly tip the odds in your favour. Without the waiting that multiplayer matches can entail, everything happens in a heartbeat. The tension of guessing, predicting and committing is sweaty and extreme - a testament to how high the stakes feel.
