Best RTS for me, by far.

10x more playable than SC2.

Why? SC2 is too physically exhausting for me. I like strategy, but I don’t like how it makes me micro at all.
Yeah, in SC2 I could not micro units at all.

In BAR micro feels quite good:

* the game pace is overall a bit slower

* projectile weapons actually take time to land

* many quality of life features, in particular, ability to give a whole group of units an order to get to specific positions by 'drawing' where you want them to be

* a lot more options for static defense play

* different options - surround, ranged attacks, kiting, AoE weapons vs evasion
