Now that Eidos is kinda back and running, rebooting all the classic titles I hope they do work on another Thier and Legacy of Kain. However, to be realistic I doubt they would.

 New Thief game Announced, this could mean there may be a return to LoK. The Former CEO of Eidos said in several interviews that he would Like to reboot LoK. I am very hopeful, and excited about the new Thief game.

I'm somewhat new to the RTS scene, but have played C&C Generals, Age of Mythology, ect. Looking for something different. Not just about the battles, but about growing and evolving your civilization as well.

If you have played the civilization portion of Spore, you have a faint idea of what I am looking for. Something where you pretty much start a civilization from scratch, build up technologies, go through different ages, such as Medival/colonial/industrial, ect, and eventually dominate/buy other civilizations, and eventually control the world.Something I'd really get addicted to. Civilization 5 looked promising, but was disapointed to find that it was turn based, and had a limited movement/grid system. Bleh. XD

Anyone have some suggestions? :D

SPORE did something few games have ever done, and taken Civilization to a real-time basis. It's kind of in a league of it's own. There are many 4x space rts games that sort of do the same thing, but it's obviously more about micromanaging a galactic empire rather than evolution.

You may want to try the Age of Empires series of games, as the first one is about ancient civs like the Yamato, Greeks, Babylonians etc, AoE 2 is more medieval, and AoE3 is more about pre and post industrial Europe and America, and it's expansions help build more into asiatic civilizations, and it is an entirely real-time series. If you like AoM, you would like AoE. Same studio.

There is of course Civilization 3-5X, but the general consensus of games that do what you describe are going to be turn based. Sorry.
