OK, its fun.

Like X-Com its pretty darn tough and you frequently lose a fight the first time you try it.
Unlike X-com, there doesnt seem to be an elaborate base-management sim getting in the way of your combat. HOWEVER, before you find combat, you do need to run around lost in the woods for a while and look for loot as well as baddies.
Its possible to keep one or more team members out of combat and hidden in the woods after your first unit engages an enemy.

There are multiple difficulties and an iron-man mode. There are weapon and unit upgrades, and team bonuses after finding artifacts. Story seems to be pretty gosh darn good right now.

Yeah, as a TBS and RPG enthusiast i've been following this game, definitely going to get it when i have some time to play games again, somewhere in 2019.

I'm confused...isn't this what I think it is? How is it comparable to X-COM? Did they change the genre?
