		0xdeadbeefbabe on Feb 28, 2017 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The Brilliance of Dwarf Fortress (2011) Why not both? For example, the game of Risk where each battle is a game of Starcraft, and then Call of Duty at an even lower level. Maybe different players play the role of general or soldier etc.

Empire Earth 3 tried that(grand strategy-like overworld, rts-like combat), but poorly executed.

The total war series is a better example, but the games range in quality
