I know, Ive checked out G4L, Ive checked out the long lists of Linux and Linux-compatible games (but dont want to click on every single damn title to find out).

Are there any good RTS games for Linux? I know Warcraft will run thru Wine. EA games have terrible compatibility with Wine/WineX/Cedega and I cant play my two favorite game series. NHL and Command & Conquer.

Is there anything like the newer C&C games that runs in Linux? Please clue me in. Ill Cedega it if I have to but Id prefer not to.

EDIT: Got Tiberian Sun w/ Firestorm running by using the Loki Installer, then running the game itself with Cedega. The sound is a bit off, and sounds like crap, but its not horrible. If you try to save or load a game it will give you an unholy crash and no way out except CTRL+ALT+BCKSPC. Everything else about it seems fine. Of course its an older game, so the graphics are terrible.

Battle of Wesnoth might be worth trying for you

I looked it up and it says its a turn-based fantasy game. I dont want an RPG, I want an RTS. Real-time-strategy. Like Warcraft, Command & Conquer, Starcraft, etc.
