Out of all the genres to fade away thanks to the cruel grinding of the wheel of time, the RTS was the most unlikely. During the late '90s and early 2000s, the RTS genre was ascendant with games like Command & Conquer, Homeworld, Warcraft 3, and StarCraft taking PC gaming to the big time. Then it all sort of went away, with games like StarCraft 2 failing to reignite a new interest in the genre. Finally that might be all about to change as new RTS Stormgate has just launched as an early access preview version, and its developer has a long track record of working on some big strategy names.
