RTS Maker?

Hi all,

I'm looking for a game design tool that's ready to make RTS games. Anyone know of any such tool?

Well, I've found a good e-mail client, a Wiki, some notebooks, pens, pencils, Dr. Pepper, and a headset phone to be indispensable as design tools for my project.

I don't believe there many, if any, RTS game-makers.

http://www.freecraft.org/ - FreeCraft is a free cross-platform real-time strategy gaming engine. It is possible to play against human opponents over LAN, internet, or against the computer. The engine can be used to build C&C, WC2, SC and AOE-like real-time strategy (RTS) games. It successfully runs under Linux, BSD, BeOS, MacOS/X, MacOS/Darwin and MS Windows (Windows XP is not supported).

Try that. Torque it ain't, but the project has been around for a number of years. It's not going to be as easy as Klik 'n Play... But that's probably a good thing, isn't it?
