RTS

I've only ever played the Command & Conquer and Warcraft series, I'd like to branch out. What other RTS games should I try?

Civ? Whats a good one to start on?

Starcraft 1 and 2
Civ is not a RTS
DoW 1

Civ is a turn based 4X. You could play StarCraft 1 and Wings of Liberty for free, Dawn of War series, Company of Heroes, Total Annihilation, or check out the Warlords Battlecry series for a different take on heroes in RTS compared to Warcraft 3.

if you haven't played Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds yet, then i don't know what you're doing with your life.

Civ isn't an RTS.
Age of Empires is an absolute must play, either 1 or 2

Starcraft 2 and Company of Heroes

Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War: Dark Crusade.

Supreme Commander

Dawn of War 1
StarCraft 1 + BroodWar
All Dune games - Dune 2 (for educational purposes), Dune 2000, Emperor Battle for Dune
Age of Empires 1, 2 and even 3
Age of Mythology
Army Men RTS
World in Conflict
Blitzkrieg games
Sudden Strike games
Original War
Company of Heroes 1
Stronghold 1 + Crusader
Rise of Nations
Total Annihilation

Dark Colony
Battle Realms

A much more important question:
Anyone wanna play some RTS games?

Fuck, I forgot some other quality titles:

Cossacks
SW Battlegrounds
Praetorians
Supreme Commander
Men of War
Knights & Merchants

You got plenty to choose from m8

>Praetorians
Nice to see someone remembering that game.

Try Total War: Warhammer(2)

I play CoH1 frequently still, online
Bought the C&C collection recently but can't figure out how to get online.
I did made an account and attempted to join the community host server but I couldn't get it to work...

Like, can you ever get that main menu theme song out of your head?

I play coh1 but only with bk

C&C ruined other RTS games for me tbqh.

Syndicate and Syndicate Wars

Why?

I like massing troops, I like running over infantry with tanks, I like using RMB to pan the camera, I like only having one button for special unit abilities.

age of empires 2 is insanely good

not with that pathfinding

>Dark Colony
My negro, that's a rare mention.

Also add:
Dark Reign - C&C style RTS
Ground Control - Homeworld style RTS

Those are the best.

I would even suggest playing them in that order.

everyone is subjected to the same rules. it's as good as an rts game can be

Civ is turn based. AoE 2 DE is great value RTS.

not even close

Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition

Submarine Titans is super fun, and the campaign is great. Earth 2150 The Moon Project/Lost Souls and Warzone 2100 are wonderful older RTS games with incredible unit customization.
