RTS games with a good campaign
I've played a good few of 'em already, but I'd like to know if I missed some. Anyone got recommendations? Steam and GOG only, please.
I've played:

Every existing Command & Conquer except the mobile and unmentionable one
Dawn of War I and II
Age of Mythology
Age of Empires I and II
Company of Heroes
Total Annihilation
KKND
8- and 9-bit Armies
Warcraft II
Rise of Nations
Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds
Metal Fatigue

Closing note: Any game which doesn't have
1) Base building
2) Resource gathering
3) Unit production
in real time is not an RTS. Total War games are not RTS.

I find Knights of Honor II Sovereign to be enjoyable. I have 200+ hours into it and I am just now thinking of moving on.

I heard it can get pretty obtuse and overwhelming though.

I know that 1 is good and 2 is worse, never played 3.

I would've said StarCraft but it's not on either Steam, or gog lol.

How about home world 1 & 2?

I come back to this I know there more in my library for rts games.

Already played SC, forgot to list it. Homeworld is full 3D, looks fairly overwhelming to me. Thanks for the recommendation though.

Try Deserts of Kharak then, it takes place planetside and so is more like your typical rts. It's also the prequel to the original games so it's the perfect game to start with.
