Old style strategies?

Hello, everyone,

You know what I am missing for quite long time? Good real time strategies. You can say, that there are many of them on market. However, from what I see, the absolute majority of RTS of the last years, if they have storyline at all, are more about protagonists adventure, then war itself.

I mean games like Warcraft 1 and 2, or older Command and Conquer games. There were protagonists sometimes, but games were actually about full scale conflicts. The opposite of it, like Warcraft 3 is all about heroes adventures. Starcraft, both 1 and 2 are somewhere in the middle, but closer to heroes adventures.

Does anybody know of good RTS, about war, and not adventures, but with storyline, that was released in the last few years? Or, since it's forum for developers, have you heard of anyone trying to make such a game?

There are many games about wars without storylines at all, like Total War, or some from Warhammer series, but that's not what I mean.

I think the last RTS that I played, and which has a storyline, but not heroes adventure was Supreme Commander.

One of our lot used to be a ranked player at Age of Empires II.  Not sure, but heard a while ago they were looking to release another version of it?  https://www.ageofempires.com/
