Could you build this?

No Developing a 10-mission mobile tactical strategy game requires game engine mastery (Unity/Godot), combat pathfinding/AI logic, sprite/3D asset creation, and mobile performance optimization that cannot be vibe-coded.

What it would actually take: Building this requires a game engine like Godot or Unity, custom deterministic turn-based or real-time tactical AI (state machines/behavior trees for squad behavior and line-of-sight checks), and a full asset pipeline for WWII audio, UI, and sprites/models. Solo vibe coding struggles fundamentally with cohesive game architecture, level balancing, and asset generation for tactical mobile games.
