MegaGlest is an entertaining free and open source cross-platform 3D real-time strategy (RTS) game, where you control the armies of one of seven different factions: Tech, Magic, Egypt, Indians, Norsemen, Persian or Romans. The game is setup in one of 17 naturally looking settings, which - like the unit models - are crafted with the great appreciation for details. A lot of additional game data can be downloaded from within the game at no cost.
