What is a good RTS similar to Warcraft 3, Starcraft 2 and Age of Empires?

Despite some stunningly terrible voice acting I had a lot of fun with the Spellforce games https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mm0klJGGSs . They often turn up in online sales really cheap. Just stay away from the most recent xpac Faith in Destiny.

I really enjoyed Spellforce, but yes, some of the absolute worst voice acting in the history of talking.

Not as bad as Soulstorm or Chrono lord in Stratholme. Spellforce is a nice game though.

Age of Mythology, Total Annihilation, every Command and Conquer RTS game until Tiberium Twilight, WH40k: Dawn of War, Rise of Nations, Rise of Legends, Homeworld (prob best story of any RTS), Dark Reign, Dune, Empire Earth, Black and White 1/2. So many to choose from but most are old school as base building RTS games in the style of Dune are pretty much dead besides StarCraft.

Totally agree with this guy and bold underlined part is the best imo . You should try Red Alert 2 and Dawn of War for sure .
On a side note Battle for Middle Earth RTS games are not bad, but the AI is sometimes unfair in terms of micromanagement .

What about any made after 2010? Other than Starcraft that is..

The RTS scene has been rather lacking lately.

Most of the games I had to mention have already been mentioned, but I just dropped in to further recommend Spellforce, it was great fun. But it is mixed in with the RPG genre heavily.

Red Alert 3 - It's not as balanced as, say, SC2 but still pretty fun. The xpac makes it even more unbalanced. But with more unbalance comes more fun.
Rise of Nations/Rise of Nations: Thrones and Patriots - A great game with a medicore xpac. It's like Civ meets Age of Empires. Very very cool. T&P was... lack luster for me. The new races and "government" additions felt very... "patchy" to me in that I felt that someone could have just patched in these new changes. Still an amazing game. There is a free demo available here: http://www.microsoft.com/games/riseo...downloads.aspx

I HIGHLY recommend at least trying out RoN. It's free to try and has a very unique approach to RTS games.

Yea I'm not that into RTS games but I really miss god games. One of the first games I ever played was Black and White (and it's sequel). They were just SO much fun. Oh and also Sacrifice, I think. Great childhood memories there I never finished it as it was kinda hard for a 9 year old but even though the gameplay wasn't too great, the atmosphere was AMAZING!

Nah there are good RTS games other than Starcraft, they just don't get press.
