Terrible games for windows live interface that basically killed multiplayer potential of the game.

I thought it was a mid RTS, but I was super Warcraft 3 and custom game addicted back then.

I bought Universe at War on release and never actually played it lol.

I think Dawn of War (Soulstorm) is probably the best RTS of all time.

Just give me Dawn of War remastered with good modding support and I dont think I would ever need another classic RTS.

Dawn of war is the goat. The hours i dumped into that series. Shame it went the way of trying to be starcraft for no reason whatsoever.

https://youtu.be/rL3Zvyrvk4w the best intro ever made

Star wars empire at war was my gateway drug to homeworld

Super cool that the original devs ported it to 64-bit recently, definitely going to help the modding scene

Loved this game as a kid, was terrible at it of course. Got instantly sold on it when I saw the huge walkers with hardpoint customization. Funny enough, the system requirements for this game are what got me to learn what PC components were - I had no idea what it really did but 512mb of RAM sure seemed like a lot at the time

Men of War my beloved
