I'm normally a TBS-kinda guy, except for Kohan, but I have been having
quite a bit of fun with Glest, an open-source 3D RTS for Windows and Linux.
It's the usual tech-tree, harvest, conquer type of WC3-style game, but it's
fairly good, especially for a completely free game. It is also moddable and
can be customized to meet own expectations. The AI is so-and-so, but seems
to improve with every new release. Beginners can ally with CPU player, and
advanced players can tackle a team of multiple computer opponents. There is
no multiplayer mode yet, but the developers are working on that and it
should be ready in a few months.

Worth a look, I think.
