I believe that you've never played chess or anything similar. If you did, I'm certain that you would not say what you say so easily. RTSes are always played using heuristic, experience based decision-making on the spot. I think you're mistaking calling back on past experience with actual strategic thinking and deep planning. You cannot play purely turn based games like chess that way at all.



I think part of what this comes down to is you seem to exclude any game with a faster-paced reactive component from qualifying as on the same level of chess.
