And I'm fairly certain Starcraft is partly to blame for the stagnation in RTS.
Newer than Age of Empires 2 or Command and Conquer
Twas a pretty good game!

Fair enough.
Well what about Supreme Commander 2? I haven't played it, but it seems like it got pretty good reviews.
My life for Aiur.

I can't readily recommend SupComm 2 because not all people are into this "macromanagement" subgenre (btw CoH is all about micromanagement, ie if you don't constantly watch over EVERY unit you're destined to fail)
Steam has a demo of SC2

Not sure what Total Annihilation is, but thanks for pointing out the Supreme Commander 2 demo and sale. I will try out the demo and see where that takes me.

Total Annihilation is the predecessor to Supreme Commander.

Review You might also want to consider World In Conflict: Soviet Assault (or its predecessor: just plain WiC). You don't build bases or gather resources in this series, but it's basically Ground Control set in the 1980s.
