I have all genre's of games covered right now..except a good Real Time Strategy!

Age of Empires II if you are thinking of Age of Mythology or WarCraft.

I have WC3, i really don't like it :/
Give Command & Conquer: Generals a try. Age of Mythology is pretty good, and you can't really go wrong with Empire Earth - It is great fun. I guess out of all the games you didn't name at all, Empire Earth is my favorite RTS.
Stronghold is also a very good RTS that is worth checking out. Both EE and SH have expansion packs out, too. Happy hunting...

i would suggest WC3, because i love all those maps, and playing online, i spent countless hours playing over the lan with my sister and my other friend, and in fact, i just ordered the WC3 expansion today, or maybe i should say Preordered.

I can only recommend Warcraft 3 because its the only recent RTS I have played. The story is great and follows on from the previous titles, the maps (as said above) are great, it plays very similar to Warcraft 2 but now has an added hero feature. All in all a decent title.
Warcraft III is the epitome of everything I don't like in an RTS. I like large scale battles and defensible bases, and WC3 has neither. It's like a little skirmish over and over again. The base defenses that are available are a joke, the unit caps are ridiculous, and most of the maps are way too crowded.
I haven't played any Strategy games lately but I hear command and Conquer: Generals is really good.

C&C: Generals is great. You need a powerful PC to run it, but it rocks!

the powerful PC is covered..
I'd have to agree with Khaos about the defense and massive battles..
that's what I loved about suddenstrike: Massive, 1000+ Units, and the only thing your defending is a stretch of land..ah...
I'll check out C&C Generals..though I've heard there aren't hardly any units
