    A lot of homeworld. Was about what the old pentium 3 before i built my computer could play and my parents never let me buy much. So it was a lot of homeworld games for a long time.

    Universe at War
    Warcraft III (+ expansion) [I like this one.]
    Warhammer: Battle March
    Warhammer 40k: Dawn of war + all expansions (Winter assult, Dark crusade, Soulstorm) [I realy like this one.]
    Warhammer 40k: Dawn of war II + The Chaos Rising expansion [I like this one.]

    World in Conflict

    Im certain i have forgotten a bunch of games... I have atleast finished whatever single player they have on all these games or played them aloot in multiplayer. Some of them (Like Dawn of war and company of heroes for example) i realy love and still play to this day.

    Hmm seems like many of my favorite strategy games are made by relic entertainment, go figure (They tend to try new things).

    I prefear supreme commander (and love the game btw) and its expansion forged alliance over supreme commander II. I did play total annihilation but didnt like it that much (Yes i know heresy, considering that i loved supreme commander that is heavily inspired by total annihilation i belive its just the limits of the old game that prevents me from liking it).

    *runs away quickly*

    I never really played RTS games. I was hoping that PA would introduce me to the genre, though I did just buy TA (which is a great game) during the sale on GOG.

    Oh yeah I forgot about this game. I only did sp campaign in that. Was ok but had some serious shortcomings. I can't say I struggled with the game because I played it on the xbox 360, but I think it could've been so much better if it was originally developed for PC only.

    I loved the campaign of WiC. I thought the ending was really well thought out. It's hard to post about it without spoilers but... after you have spent the whole game thinking the guy was an incompetent coward, what he does is pretty heroic.

    Honeslty speaking Halo Wars is bloody awful in a gameplay perspective. I mean, they did okey considering its on xbox 360, but i agree that it would have been so much better on a pc.

    But i love it anyway since im a Halo fanboy. Just watching those warthogs driving around with allmost the same movements (physics) as in the fps halo games is awsome.

    For me a game with awsome lore and story (Offcourse the story wasent that good either in Halo Wars xD) can still be worth playing even if the gameplay sucks. Its all about the feeling i get when i play, for me.

    I'll list them in order of when I first played them;

    Warcraft
    Warcraft II
    Age Of Empires II
    Starcraft
    XTA (Spring)
    Command & Conquer: Generals
    Absolute Annihilation (Spring)
    Age Of Empires
    Warcraft III
    Homeworld
    Expand & Exterminate (Spring)
    Dawn Of War
    Total Annihilation
    Earth 2160
    Gundam RTS (Spring)
    Spring 1944 (Spring)
    Kernel Panic (Spring)
    Sins Of A Solar Empire
    Supreme Commander
    NOTA (Spring)
    Complete Annihilation (Spring)
    The Cursed (Spring)
    Zero-K (Spring)
    Supreme Commander 2
    Dawn Of War II

    I left out games that I didn't play at least twenty hours of, as well as whatever I forgot. I stopped playing RTS entirely after burning out on Starcraft years and years ago. The Spring projects brought me back to the genre, though after half a decade I dropped away again.

    I played DUNE.

    Damn I feel old saying that. Suffice to say I'm not even going to TRY to list my entire history of RTS titles, because it would be a daunting task and would inevitably be an incomplete list. Suffice to say, I've played a fair number of RTS games over the years.

    And I must say, I still remember DUNE. It's just not the same without giant freakin' worms periodically reaching up out of the sand to eat your units. I miss those days.

    Dam Dune was amazing, i had it on the Amiga. That really seemed like something fresh lol

    I liked populous 1 and 2 and also megalomania, they dont make games like this any more. Oh and dungeon keeper kicked *** too. Shame we did not get the 3rd edition.

    TA was a great step up as was sup com FA. No other RTS can compare to these two games really.

    It all started with Malfador's Space Empires 3... then 4. OK, these are turn based but that made me go looking for an RTS that'd run on 32Mb of RAM.

    Then my friend bought Total Annihilation and I went nuts with that for years.

    Battle for Middle Earth 2.

    SupCom 1, 2.

    StarCraft 2.
