SC 2: Protoss (love Photon Cannon Rush)

CnC 3 Kane's Wrath: Steel Talons (not meta, but fun to play)

WC3: Orcs. (Watch tower Rush + Tauren Warchief)

Grey Goo: The Goo "Agents of Chaos"

Etherium: Vectide "Of course my liege."

Emperor: Battle For Dune: Atriedes "For the Duke" (Love Minos plus Atriedes Turtle)

Generals: Zero Hour: Super-Weapons General (Aurora Alpha is brutal, plus Super-Weapons 1/2 off!)

Total War, Warhammer 2: Lizardmen "The Ignorant Call them Lizardmen, the knowing call them Protectors of the World!"

Iron Harvest: Rusvelt (Sept ftw!)

Supreme Commander: Cybrans "Tip of the Spear my Boy! Tip of the Spear!"

Bonus Mention: Supremacy plus Pan-Asian Cooperative: Civilization Beyond Earth (not an RTS but still fun) Everyone gets at least 1 bonus mention.

What are your faves?

You mean like Jar Jar Gungans? Are you also going to say Greedo shot first? Are you also going to say Star Wars is fiction, because I am pretty sure it happened a long time ago, in a Galaxy Far, Far Away.

Halo Wars...  the Covenant.  Because its freaking awesome when you build a Scarab (or 2 Scarabs, 2 bugs are better than 1) and unleash it on the pitiful Earthlings.

I've been really enjoying the Wehrmacht in Company of Heroes 2. Something about the way Panzergrenadiers and Panzer IVs work together tickles me.

Also, just realise that the SW:Eaw engine is perfect for a BT port!
