      What about Harpoon? It's not an RTS but it is somethin interesting.

        What does being the fastest-clicker-in-the-west have to do with strategy?
        Just that you will lose games if you are a slow boy.

        RTS is about control of resources, not units.
        Really? Any RTS like that is very poor. Besides I said, for _good_ players.

          There is more strategy in RTS than in TBS. On top of normal planning, one has to compete with time. Sure, any bozo can study a Civ map and plan his strategy, but it takes more skill to do so in real-time.

          I personally don' t like many RTS games. Starcraft is king of them all, IMO. Empire Earth is pretty good, but weak multiplayer.

            I agree. And if Starcraft is the king, then Myth 2 is the Queen. the queen with A GIANT BATTLE AXE!

              Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

                  But of course, that is a turnbased game and dosn't really count here.

                      Uhm, the speed of most real-time is not realistic. You are expected to do a couple years of Real Life in in a couple hours of real-time. Ditto for Battle length. Genghis, Caesar, and Napoleon fought their battles at TBS speeds.

                        I tryed the demo to Star Craft and never really got into it. It feels like their is a limmited amounts of units. But I did have fun playing it, but never got good at the game, and never bought it.

                          these guys do decent reviews, imo.

                          Of course if you really played, you would know about www.grognard.com
