or at least it allows me to play that type of combat via Bluetooth or Wifi with a friend in the same room?
The closest games I can think of on the AppStore in the same vein as King's Bounty or the Heroes of Might and Magic model of gameplay are: Battle for Wesnoth Palm Heroes 2 Deluxe Civization Revolutions Trying to think of the other awesome title on the AppStore that has IAP expansions with a cool style but the name is escaping me... And of course King's Bounty: Legions which is currently on the AppStore!
