"The Lamplighters League: Revolutionizing XCOM with Rulebook Overhaul"

TL;DR
The Lamplighters League, an upcoming turn-based tactics game, is proving to be extremely difficult, even for experienced players of XCOM-like games. The game's middle campaign missions are challenging, with overwhelming enemy numbers and high damage output. The difficulty cannot be adjusted mid-game, making it even more challenging. The game encourages a more defensive playstyle, but this approach may miss the point of a turn-based tactics game. The game offers depth in terms of agent abilities and combinations, but specific combinations seem to be more effective than others. More time and a fresh start are needed to fully assess the game's approachability and potential.
