I really want to like this game. I'm not going to ♥♥♥♥♥ about the difficulty which is really inconsistent in my opinion, but I will comment on it.

I don't play a game like this with the idea of winning through failure. I like reloading and trying new strategies out. Sometimes reloading resets the RNG, sometimes it stays exactly the way it is whether your moves are the same or not. This gets frustrating in some situations like: moving your troops to better hit the enemy, moving your troops to avoid being hit, or running to try to complete the mission.

So basically I find 95% of the time no matter what my moves are, if I miss 4 times in a row the first time I try, it will happen no matter my % of hitting or where my troops are. That doesn't feel good: I've reloaded a single spot 25+ times and every option comes with 2-4 misses and minimal damage, while every retaliation 1-shots one of my units. Besides personally irritating, it seems completely scripted to me.

Otherwise the building transparancy gets frustrating a lot. I don't think it "ghosts" through buildings half the time I need it to, only to not figure out how to get it to work. Overall the game has a great concept but the overall player experience is sooooooo irritating my desire to play wears thinner every time I play it.
