Level editor looks good, but for this price I.M.O people may as well get XCOM 2. Deep campaign with replay-ability, has good customisation (Including great mods like LW2), and is currently £11.54 for the base, or you can get the "collection" for £37.83 on steam (till 16th October). Honestly this seems like a solid game, but should be priced lower I.M.O to reflect its depth relative to its competitors (£15-£25 I'd price it).

Then came Ascension which is the game with RPG unlocking elements, which to me is kind of dumb?! But I’m a purist. SH Tactics is sort of a mix of the fore mentioned two game versions. But now has a card system, which is definitely different! But I do like it....Just not as much as the original rules and gameplay.
