What beginner friendly RTS game can you recommend?

As a quick background, RTS is completely new to me. I spend majority of my time in FPS type games but want to branch out a bit and try out something different/new (to me).

Requirements:

  • Somewhat casual (if that’s possible)
  • Somewhat easy to learn
  • Relatively modern with decent graphics (something that looks nice)
  • Runs on Linux (of course) and Steam

    I know many don’t like it, but Supreme Commander 2 is very fun 1V1. It’s a good mix between build engine and classical RTS.

    Just don’t play the campaign, its a disaster.

      I think most people hate it because it’s meant to be more appealing to a casual audience, not a bad game, but not what Supreme Commander fans wanted.
