Are there any other good squad strategy games like this?
Lookinf for something similar to this type of game, not turn based like gears tactics.

Desperados 3/Commandos series is really the only thing that springs to mind.

Syndicate Plus, Syndicate Wars, Satellite Reign
but IMO nothing comes close to this game.

This seems to be something made for fans of Fortnite and turn based strategy. Still no close to ADD.

It's actually quite fun. No its not made for fans of fortnight. It actually has more in common with Xcom had a baby with Smash TV.

Desperados 3 and Shadow Tactics: Blades of the shogun

But don't sleep on the turn based ones to, Xcom 2, Gears Tactics, Vandal Hearts, FF Tactics, etc.. are all very fun.

Check its aesthetical style. It looks similar to Fortnite. And it is not RTS.

Not like Gears Tactics because you don't like Gears Tactics or just that you're looking for something different? Gears Tactics is awesome. Don't sleep on it.

Nothing really springs to mind for games like A:DD because it's pretty unique but there are a few that are similar in some ways.

Icewind Dale has combat that isn't too far off if you think about it. It has real-time with pause, character classes with unique skills that you can level up, and took place in a top-down setting.

Age of Darkness: Final Stand is like the lovechild of Warcraft 3 and They Are Billions. It's a really great evolutionary step for RTS, IMHO:

Satellite Reign, a spiritual successor to Syndicate, came and went several years ago that I think deserved a bit more fanfare:

Dawn of War 2 may be old but its a good one.

Thanks all for the replies. Not a fan of turn based games anymore since original ff7, they feel slow now . I know gears is good but i am an rts player. I'll check your recomendations
