Good Free RTS Games

Fire

CAGiversary!
Anybody got any? I really don't care graphicswise or anything. Just as long as it is fun and in the same vein as a Warcraft or Starcraft. Oh and free without junk attached.
 
The only one that comes to mind is Ground Control, which Vivendi Released as a free download when Ground Control 2 was released. I played it a little, and as an RTS player, I felt it was a fairly unique RTS and worth trying, at least.

You can find it by doing a google search for it.
 
XP Games has a nice list of handpicked freeware games (taken from a previous thread here on CAG). If you scroll to the bottom of the page, there's a section for strategy games, some of which are RTS games.

One freeware RTS game that isn't listed on that website is Total Annihilation Spring.

That sorta defeats the purpose of this thread. :)
 
The Linux crowed generally loves Battle For Wesnoth. I have a couple friends who are really into it but I'm not into RTS so I can't real speak for it.
 
[quote name='Moxio']RA2 is so cheap you might as well just buy that and play the fuck out of it.[/quote]I know this is straying from the topic as well, but if you pre-order RA3, you get RA2 for free.

And more on topic, here are the links to the original Command & Conquer ISOs
GDI
NOD

Rise of Nations is outstanding. Also World in Conflit was amazing with tons of eye candy.
 
My buddy is downloading free RTS games and posting them on a site to download, he writes a short review of the game so you know what your downloading before you do... Anyways, here ja go:

JointUnderground DOT com SLASH forums

There is a free games section, check it there...

Theres only one place that i know of...
please visit

freemediafansdotnet

for all the free games and software!!
 
I tried to post a review with links but the site won't let me. There are a number of free and legal RTS games that are great. Use Google and search for the following...

Command and Conquer - Gold Edition
Command and Conquer - Red Alert
Savage 2
Rise and Fall: Civilizations at War
Shattered Galaxy


There are more but I only recommend what I have actually played.
 
Man, you're like describing Tower Commodore, a hard challenging rts, not a tower defence game. Just released.
Trust me, you'll like it, and it's difficult, not for noobs. :) Also , the multiplayer is super good, lan and internet.

FOLLOW THIS LINK unless you don't want the LATEST VERSION v1.5c----
