You are only giving a limited supply of units for each mission?

I have been playing alot of Strategy games lately and they all come down to the same thing. CoH simply requires you to move forward while creating choke points. WiC requires you to keep pushing until you gain the uper hand, and DoW2 is simply punch straight through until you get to the boss. Any games that will actually force you to think about how you use your units?

Would prefer the entire game to be based around not having an unlimited supply of back up.

you might consider one of the total war games. they contain two parts: a civilization style conquest strategy and a battle strategy. You fight battles with only the troops you bring in and generally no reinforcements. The battles revolve mainly around using proper battlefield strategy to win and not simply huge numbers of troops.

Played, one of my favourite series of games, but even that can go off the same strategy to win all battles. :P

Try Silent Storm. Each mission you can only take a few soldiers and if you lose one during a mission you actually lose him/her for the whole game. Prior to each mission you outfit your troops with weapons/items you either buy or find on dead soldiers. There's an RPG aspect to the game as well so when you loose a higher level guy it really hurts. Fantastic game...really under appreciated.

the myth franchise from bungie is right up your alley. shame there impossible to find offline in a store somewhere. they give you like a tiny bag of guys and you essentially need to keep them all alive till the end if you want to survive. and there are alot of enemies you must go through you have no "limitless supply" and requires you to fully squeeze the use out of your guys before you dispose of them.
