This is a strategy game that takes place in a near future setting like arma 3. It functions very much like a rock paper scissors game where certain units are strong or weak against others and the effectiveness chain goes in a cycle. Helicopters>Tanks>APC transports>Helicopters>Riflemen infantry>Engineers in cover>Vehicles......The fascinating thing is everything from units to deployment to WMD's can be controlled entirely by voice, so since we have mic headsets we have access to this feature.

The best game in that respect is Wargame: Red Dragon and its predecessors. Your helicopters will be useless without recon. Your infantry needs IFV support when in terrain, or building cover. SEAD planes are essential for airspace control.
An overall great game, and that is coming from someone that doesn't even like strategy games.
Well i don't like strategy games much too, i just bought this game because i read the novel long ago and found out that you could control your army with with voice commands(which is pretty cool). And the novel is good too.
I'm not sure if this Humble Bundle is offering The Division if you pay more than the average (currently $9.62) or if that just allows you to play the beta, not the full game when it's released.
I guess it must just be beta access, as the full game is £50 on Steam so I doubt they'd sell it for just $10! So you're basically paying to beta test the game for them. Of course, you get all the other games for that, so it's a good deal if you want them.

Humble Bundle now sells the Telltale Bundle. for 12 $, you get all the Telltale adventures. The Walking Dead games were good (especially the first one) as well as Game of Thrones. Don't know about the other ones.
Also, the staff picks bundle contains the Homeworld Remastered collection. If you are a fan of real time strategy in space, this is a really good game at 12 $ (Plus, you get Brothers: A Tale of two Sons, one of the few games that makes grown men cry bitter tears).
