Talk:List of real-time strategy video games
Combat Leader (1983)
editThis is the first RTS I ever played (on C64, and I believe it was available on Atari ST and some other platforms as well), but I have absolutely no skill at editing Wikipedia. Mobigames lists it here: http://www.mobygames.com/game/c64/combat-leader. It's definitely worth inclusion.2604:6000:100E:C071:2CF5:DE2:7F56:A0F5 (talk) 08:11, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
Sub-categories
editThe list should indicate in the "Notes" column whether a game falls under one of the other strategy sub-genres, such as 4X or grand strategy, as well. Hopefully I'll get around to doing that at some later time. SharkD (talk) 02:15, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
Dimensionality
editWhat about the dimensionality of these RTS games: 2D, 2.5D (sprites in at least 4-10 directions, e.g. Starcraft), and full 3D (Warcraft III)? I do understand that dimensionality is much more important for shooters, but almost all strategy games nowadays are 3D, whereas it was not so just a decade or less ago.

- If you want to mention that in the 'Notes' column, go ahead. SharkD Talk 02:00, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Empire Earth Sci Fi?
editAren't the games in the Empire Earth series in a historic setting? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theworldisbig (talk • contribs) 03:00, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
Why is Liero on this list?
editSurely it isn't an RTS game. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.216.107.130 (talk) 11:02, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
Fixed damage from GOG additions
editSomeone broke the table percentages, made new columns after each gog column, and wrote Yes (GOG) into many Notes columns. All or mostly fixed now. I feel like the GOG thing should be a link but I don't know what standard practice would be. It at least should be more clear. Vanngar (talk) 15:38, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
Proposed changes
editI think the table percents could be changed to make it all look a bit better and Year looks better when the years are aligned center. Vanngar (talk) 15:42, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
Etherium
editSomeone added this to the list after my last edits (the edit between mine and abaddon's) but it doesn't have a wiki page. The link links to some program called Ethereum. I dunno how this stuff works, I just fix things. Vanngar (talk) 05:23, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
M1 Tank Platoon and Team Yankee
editI'm not sure (pretty old games) but I think M1 Tank Platoon and Team Yankee would be relevant. They are currently in the real-time strategy category.
Another game : Super Battletank isn't in the category but seems to be alike. Elfast (talk) 16:15, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- You're confusing real-time strategy with real-time tactics. This list is for the former. SharkD Talk 16:40, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- Ok I didn't know there was a difference. Team Yankee (video game) article speaks about a mixture of real-time strategy and simulation game and it's not listed on List of real-time tactics video games (M1 Tank Platoon is). Elfast (talk) 10:40, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
- I'm not familiar with this game. But if there is no resource collection or base building, then it doesn't really belong in this list. SharkD Talk 14:23, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

Expansion Packs
editIs there a reason there is a bunch of expansion packs listed? It seems a number of early games have them. Most of them are definitively dependent expansion packs, not stand alone expansion packs. Rtbittaker (talk) 16:42, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
