A lot of great RTS series (more than the 8 poll options I'm allowed) have gone far too long without a new installment, so I'm wondering which one you're most desperate for more of. As far as I'm aware, none of my poll options except for a new Command and Conquer (developed by Bioware) have been announced at this point.

Bonus question: what are you hoping for in the next installment (story/setting/gameplay adjustments/etc)?

Right now I just want Relic to announce Dawn of War II.

As for what I want, well, all the good stuff from the first game and all the good stuff from the second game put together with some new, good stuff added.

I want to see more larger maps that allow for big, epic scale battles along with smaller maps for more concentrated skirmishes.

I also want more than 4 default races and for the Daemon hunters to be a separate factions instead of being integrated into the Imperial Guard and Space Marines.

It would also be awesome is the story were to continue moving forward in the 40K timeline and bring some new and interesting plot developments.

I also want the Dobson brothers, Scott McNeil, Ian Gregory and Steve Blum along with more "hammy" voice acting like the first game.

I could go on forever but I'll just stop there.

Dawn of war 3 all the way. If it's more like the first (but keeping the squad micromanagement of the second).

Tis sad that RTS games aren't as popular as they used to be. I will weep for them.

Warcraft 4. Even though the lore got trampled to hell by WoW, there's still plenty of awesome stuff to work with.

Also this. I want all the factions and all the units, including Noise Marines (or whatever they're called). Massive battles and customizable armies (beyond colour schemes).

Well, a while back the Escapist had an article [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/7.300177-Build-Fully-Custom-Armies-In-Dawn-Of-War-III] where someone from Relic said that Dawn of War III would feature more customisation than the first two.

New DoW! I really like squashing the enemies of the God-Emperor under my giant power boots. Maybe with other chapter campaigns.

Gabriel Angelos, I like you and I'm gonna let you finish, but Marneus Calgar was the best chapter master of all time.

Homeworld 3? Warcraft 4? No, don't make me choose. :( I cannot do it, I can't! I want both! Also, Age of Mythology 2. Because the first one kicked all sorts of ass. Gimme all three, and I will be a happy man. :)

Dungeon Keeper 3.

I don't care so much for the others.
Well, except maybe WarCraft IV...
But I want Dungeon Keeper 3 the most.
And not only in the RTS genre, but in all genres combined.

Well, I voted Supreme Commander 3, but what I really want is to have Supreme Commander 2 stricken from the series, declared an alternate universe, and to have a proper replacement made.

So yeah, strip out the research system and go back to tech tree upgrades, maybe even go back to the specialized factories of Total Annihilation. Then maybe add unit upgrades that can be applied by an engineering unit in the field or at a factory with the right prerequisites (but not research, seriously, R&D does not happen in the field, only data collection does)... but any of those upgrades would always cost more basic resources to build. Also, resource rates. 2's hybridized income rate/instant spending BS was awful.

Command and Conquer for me, granted the best would be with Westwood at the helm again, but maybe Bioware can pull it off.

MYTH FOR THE LOVE OF ALL GAMES, BRING BACK THE MYTH SERIES. NO OTHER STRATEGY HAS THE LEVEL OF DETAIL OF MYTH. NO GAME, NONE IS THAT CLEAR WITH ALL MY LARGE CAPITOL CROWNED LETTERS :p

Alric will become the new Leveler, as the defeater of soublighter trying to speed up the cycle of light and darkness (obvious that he was trying to speed up darkness), Alric will become a fallen lord and will usher in a timeless evil. With only a handful of the fallen lords left. Balor, Shiver, the Deciever, The watcher and Soublighter all killed in the last two wars. New heroes will need to emerge

The dwarves will also have their own battle agaist their racial enemy the ghols. With their homeland barley re-occupied after the 2nd great war. It will be the turning point of either victory or defeat for their entire race.

I really hope they get the original team from bungie to buy back this game from Take 2. Stop making the damned Halo games, no body likes them!!!!

Europa Universalis 4 or a new Dungeon Keeper game, not Dungeon Keeper Online we need a real one, someone should start a kickstarter, in a few months when I have recovered from the other kickstarters.
