Looking for a RTS/Strategy game.

Im looking for a game that plays like Rise of Nations but has no real endgame. A game where you you have to manage resources and build necessary building and research technology but that you don't have to go to war with other nations and there is no real end, you could play forever if you wanted to. Basically a SimCity but with the play style of Rise of Nations. Any suggestions?

It might not be the perfect fit, but I can highly recommend Anno 1404 and 2070. Their main mode is the open ended and war is just a minor part of the gameplay.

This guy is right, the Anno games I played 1602 You are more worried about building your town and the condition of your people than war. War is hardly in it and there is trade between different countries than your own. I liked 1602 it was a lot of fun.

RTS genre is already dead. Starcraft 2 is just a generic thing from Blizzard about 100 hours and you will satasfy it. Company of Heroes 2 will be nothing special of RTS too. When C&C was bought by EA, whole RTS genre died.

Why ? Because i am criticizing a Blizzard and EA. Stop being a funboy start looking stuffs as they are.

Anno 1404? You dont have to fight if you dont want to. And the larger maps are HUGE.

edit: uh, not comparable to RON, sorry about that. But still, you should try it out if you like strategy games.

Thanks for the help everyone, I'll look into the Anno series. Looks closest to what I am looking for.

Supreme Commander has a sandbox mode.

Damn OP you missed the Anno 2070 sale the other day on Steam, stuff was only like $15.
