Odd, Mobygames has this listed as an Amiga game; did you play it in an emulator on PC?

Command H.Q. seems to be somewhat similar, with pictures in the map icons.

You could also look at games in the 'grand strategy' genre, like Axis&Allies:

Ok, here's the MobyGames entry: https://www.mobygames.com/game/word-rescue
