Strategy is a very diverse genre, so its hard to pin down "the best". But a few suggestions:

Traditional: Red Alert 2

City Builder: Dawn of Discovery/Anno 1404

Empire Builder: Rome: Total War

Small Scale/Tactical: Company of Heroes

What's better, Supreme Commander or Company of Heroes?avatar_genius

different games. SC, you build a horde of units and play the big scale destruction game with enemies; with CoH, you command serveral squads and employ battlefield tactics.

personally I like CoH.

Starcraft for me personally is the most fun. CoH is decent too. Rome is excellent, I'd check that out.

KureitonX

since when is Diablo 2 a RTS?

the empire mangement in Total War games is turn base, but at least its battle is real-time; Civilization series is full turn base strategy game.

Dawn of War II and Company of Heroes are excellent. Buy them right now.

Starcraft is a classic and one of the best games to date, but MP is incredibly noob hostile since you're fighting guys on BNET with years of experience. If you're patient you should wait for SC2.

Red Alert 1. Learn basic CnC armored warfare with that game.

Warcraft 3: Greatsingleplayer and ladder matches are always a blast (Undead beat all). You can also download and learn to play DOTA, play tower defense games, and hundreds of other mods.

Why isn't this thread named "Should I get Supreme Commander or Company of Heroes"?

Supreme Commander and Company of Heroes are two of my most favourite RTS games of all time. Their experiences are completely different though, SC is on a massive scale while CoH is very focused and tactical. They're both fantastic games and you can't go wrong with either.

If you want more tactics and less strategy, go with Dawn of War (the original is better IMO).

Company of Heroes. While SupComm had large scale battles, the units are like tiny ants on a battlefield. Not very exciting.

COH, but like most people have said, be a little more specific.
