I'm an old RTS lover, but I admit I haven't played much the last decade or two. But I've noticed there seems to be a sort of renaissance for RTS games coming up now with several games that look like they want to invoke the old style from the golden days of RTS.
My personal favorite of the new ones is D.O.R.F. which looks to be true to form. It just screams Westwood studios all over! The rock music, the graphics, the factions - everything looks fantastic.
Another one that looks very gritty and cool is Dust Front. Not true to the old formula exactly, but interesting nonetheless. The battles looks very cool, the atmosphere is super-gritty. Haven't watched a lot of game play footage yet but it's on my radar now.
Tempest Rising is another one that looks great! Haven't tried it yet, but it's also in the wishlist now. This one is already released. Haven't heard much chatter about it just generally, but it has good reviews it seems. Would love to try out on a "LAN" with some buddies, an event I manage to do once per 10 years on average
