Nectaris seems like the kind of game that should have been released on the Amiga but somehow wasn't.

Because it was an inspirstion behind Blue Byte's Battle Isle series which started on Amiga. It also inspired Dune 2 but that's another story.

Nectaris is cool but Panzer General is the real deal

Must be the corrupting effect of the 68K and that blasted needlemouse.

The Game Boy version of Nectaris had DLC in Japan.

I like to say this.

This came out in 1986, pretty sure it was MS-DOS first.

I am pretty sure Ogre is just a standard computer wargame which were numerous in the 80s. Nectaris was an attempt at modernizimg and streamlining the experience for console audiences, adding nice graphics, cutscenes, music, speeding up the process etc. It was Advance Wars before Advance Wars (Famicom Wars was still ugly and slow)

Actually it's a computer version of a very popular tabletop wargame.

Origin released it on multiple platforms at the same time

I'm the best at this game and I can finish boards with fewer moves than anyone.
