Massive Chalice - First Look - 2 of 3

Today we are looking at Massive Chalice. The game is about 7 years old at this point and cost me $19.99 on Steam. Massive Chalice is a turn based tactics game with some base building, research and recruiting mechanics. Is this one a fantasy X-com-like or an X-com-lite? Let's dive in and try Massive Chalice!
