As a kid, I spent countless hours playing Cannon Fodder, a war-themed action game developed by Sensible Software. As a player, you controlled a squadron of soldiers to complete a mission. The controls were simple--click on an area you would like your squad to go to. If any enemies were spotted, your squad would happily open fire. As you progressed through the levels, you had the opportunity to have your squad jump into military vehicles.
The following is the screenshot of the game Cannon Fodder:
It is this game that inspired this example, but the environment through which you navigate your squad is replaced with the real world instead of a virtual one! Obviously, this example does not do this game justice, but I think you will agree that, as a concept...
