fun but "deck building" is tacked on

Game has very simple city-building leading up to tactical battles which you can ONLY control with the cards youve won from past battles. (Your units otherwise march mindlessly to the right.) Enemy has functionally identical units but no cards or AI. Tutorial is bad, doesnt even teach basic strategy such as keeping units and odd number of spaces from enemy (for first strike).
