I love the idea, in principal, but I think it's impossible in practice.

A good strategist makes the outcomes of individual battles predictable. That makes it terrible for unit players.

I used to play Planetside 2 with a very organized group. Winning was fun at first but you were ultimately a cog in a well oiled machine so it got old fast. It probably got old even faster for the other players who were just trying to play a regular fps.
