my picks will be:
- Company of Heroes
- Command and Conquer
- Star Craft
- Warhammer Dawn of War
- War Craft 3
- Age of Empires
- Lord of the Rings Battle for Middle Earth
(these are the RTS that i loved)
Depends on what era you are after.
For futurist RTS, and my all time favourite, Dawn of war is pretty awesome
For swords and axes style fighting, i like the age of empire games
