The RTSC Games List
Dawn of War (2003)

Set in the sci-fi fantasy future world of Warhammer 40,000, Dawn of War translates arguably the most popular tabletop figurine gaming and hobby system on the planet into an over the top, action packed RTS. Its the new StarCraft, except much, much better. This is RTSC's big game section for 2005, 2006 and 2007. It covers the second Dark Crusade expansion, and assumes you have the original Dawn of War and its first expansion, Winter Assault expansion. Here ta fix yer gubbins!
Supreme Commander (2006)

The spiritual successor to Total Annihilation turns out to be everything TA and all the custom mods that were made for it were, and then more.

Rise of Nations (2003)

Rise of Nations looks at first like any historical Age of Empires or Empire Earth styled game, but it crosses fast moving RTS action with the cerebral might of that epic turn based adventure, Civilization. In Rise of Nations its as important to build up your cities and advance your Nation's prosperity and technological prowess as it is to push those armies around. The multiplayer options are brilliant. Games can end in all kinds of ways. Its fantastic.

Homeworld2 (2003)

The big sequel to Homeworld, extending its gameplay features and (not quite) ignoring Cataclysm. The Hiigarans, happy and snug in their recently acquired Homeworld, are beset by the nomadic crusaders of the Vaygr, lead by the despotic leader Makaan. Astonishingly rich graphics and sound, a more strategic sense of play and a rapidly emerging collection of interesting mods are the order of the day. Its single player campaign wasn't anywhere near as good as the first one, alas.

Startopia (2001)

Tired of blowing shit up? Try galactic reconstruction instead. As Station Administrator, its your job to renovate the Station, opening new segments and providing services, entertainments, spiritual guidance, a bit of Love, and recreating the lost habitats of the planets destroyed in a terrible galactic war. Graphically splendiferous, very droll and quite funny, this is the Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy and 2001: A Space Odyssey all rolled into one. Its great! Grab a cocoa and some cheese on toast and start Sandboxing your Station today...
