Struggling to make war?

Ah. There is an actual new scenario you can download from BGG. Also, Highly recommend the updated rules book and a very short errata, both are on BGG.

Niko has been very helpful with rules questions.

I just can't believe how I can have so many games and yet can't seem to find anything I want to play!

I have something like 220 games on Steam.  Add another 20 or so from GoG.  Add another 10-15 from Matrix, Battlefront, and other cats and dogs.  So we're talking over 250 games at my disposal right now, and not a single one is calling to me to be played.  I'm about to go lay on the couch and read a book.

It just doesn't make any sense.   ::)

It makes me appreciate those times when I got totally sucked into a game, like Skyrim.  When you just can't wait to get on and start gaming...I love that feeling and it happens so infrequently anymore.  And it's not that the games I have aren't good.  I think it might have something to do with the investment in time required to get halfway decent at many games.  If I have 250 games there are probably less than 20 that are in the actual rotation, and of those maybe 10 that get played on a monthly basis.

And I'm out of scotch.   >:(

So then, a tactical FPS sort of?

For a real-time visceral troop mover, it's kind of hard to beat Scourge of War (or its Take Command predecessors).

If you have a Playstation 2, Dynasty Tactics is a nice turn-based campaign game with plenty of depth but not hard to learn, and with the occasional (albeit PS2-level) eye candy.
