Ehterium looks like it is going to be a hell of an RTS. The dusty universe Etherium is set in evokes memories of Dune 2 one of the granddaddies of the RTS genre so we are already off to a good start. Besides Dune 2 there is also a hint of Total Annihilation with an increasingly large number of units on screen at the same time, I hope they really push this aspect.
Etherium has a nice Sci-fi setting going on from mechs and blue plasma propelled air craft to a giant walker the size of a city that I hope is a unit we as the player controls. Etherium will see three empires duke it out to control the Etherium substance and will have a dynamic weather system along with 7 planets to fight to the death on. Taking Etherium online will see 4 players duke it out for ultimate control, as of yet there is no confirmed release date for the title.
