I feel Cossacks has go to be one of, if not the best RTS for a long while. There are so many things about Cossacks that make so much better than AOE, or any other good RTS.

One of the advantages it has over AOE in my opinion is that the game will support up to 8000 units, so you versus 1 other player enables you to have 4000 units of troops etc. each or 2000 if there are 4 players and so on. Each nationality has its own technological strengths and weaknesses and to build units, buildings, ships etc. resources are used such as wood, ...
