This person above is talking about ground combat. You should try Air combat, it's really exciting and fast-paced and it feels very rewarding to destroy enemy planes and ground units. I played this game a long time before I even found this page and I can wholeheartedly recommend you try it yourself. If you like WW1/WW2 simulations, this is really good, as all the vehicles are different just like their real-life counterpart. Also it's free so you've got nothing to lose by trying it. Going from your text I think you could enjoy this game very much
