Command & Conquer (RA2 Yuri's Revenge or Generals style play) + FPS where I start the game in RTS mode and at any time I can click and "assume" a unit on the ground where I'm dropped into an FPS version of the map I was just viewing. If I die, I resume the commander role. Or if at any time I want to command again, AI takes the unit back over and it either stops or resumes doing whatever it was doing before.

I guess Renegade might be what FPS looks like, but I'm unaware of a game that combines both.

the Dungeon Keeper games sound similar. it's an RTS and you can control individual units in FPS mode and use their powers. the first person fighting isn't that great really, but it's still fun. and was way ahead for its time.
DK1 was great. DK2 was even better.

Then DK Mobile happened and it's pretty clear we'll never see a good DK game again.

I'm not suprised. You mean you really don't want to spend real money to unlock time-restricted fake money?
It's kind of been done: Urban Assault, Hostile Waters: Antaeus Rising, and, to a lesser extent, Battlezone I and II.
