I was thinking about real-time-with-pause turn-based games, have any games styled themselves as "turn-based" where the action slows to a stop, you go around giving all your guys orders, then time goes back to normal and the next turn is everything executing simultaneously?

I took a look, still seems pretty turn-based to me? As in, everyone taking turns one after the other.
>>
>>383237478
I think this might be like the Knights of the Old Republic games, which were "turn-based" in how the combat system actually worked, but presented itself as continuous action where everyone was doing all their stuff simultaneously.

Actually come to think of it I'm kind of surprised more games didn't copy their gameplay style, it honestly looked pretty cool.

Frozen Synapse. Also has simultaneous turns.

I feel like Transistor is exactly thw game you're looking for. It's an action game you can pause and take turns in. 2.50 in thw steam sale

So, dragon age?

anon's probably just thinking of the computer player. Their whole force moves simultaneously but still attack one after another.

I wanted to be able to do that since I first noticed it.
>>
>>383244298
Same as the player.

You pause, issue every command to all units - move/attack

then unpause and they all do it

Laser Squad Nemesis and Frozen Synapse.

Door Kickers is the epitome of what you just described. You can pause at any time and paint paths and set actions for your squad or you can just pause right at the beginning and do it all from a single plan for a bonus.
>>
>>383244384
oh right. I think I remember now. But I never use it since units could waste a turn if their target dies before they get a swing at them. Since the game had chance to hit you couldn't reliably play with simultaneous movement unless you're fine with that.

Fallout Tactics.

>>383246856
This game rocks.

>>383246856
How similar is Breach and Clear to Doorkickers, and is it any good?
>>
Flotilla.
