Act of War...? Definitely not the best, at all...
Probably the most well done strategy game is either one of the Civilizations or Starcraft... Starcraft especially for the time it came out, and it's persistence (still waiting for Starcraft 2 goddamnit!)
Age of Empires was the game that really got me into RTS games, god was that game good... Age of Empires II is also a masterpiece

I don't play a lot of strategy, but I got into them with Age of Empires II. I then got into some Command and Conquer RTS games (I spend years playing Renegade, however; it was my favorite game for a long while. It made me hate EA for stopping service, but it just goes to show how a community can improve so much on a game that the developer gave up on.) but didn't play them a whole lot.
I have a hard time playing RTS, as I have trouble juggling resources, individual units, upgrades, building units; I have a one-track mind and that's why I love missions involving a group of units and no base to worry about.

nothing beets command and conquer
I always put Sudden Strike 2 up there, but now I feel it is a toss up between Rome Total War or Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War.

The Civilization series is the best turn based strategy game by far. Civ 4 is the current one, and it's the type of game that can be fun for hours at a time.

It's Tiberium Wars.
My favorite thus far is Rise of Legends.

I liked that game Savage where it mixed RTS and FPS toghether, don't think it took off that well though. You can grab the demo and play two maps, usually servers are quite populated. Link (http://www.s2games.com/savage/)

You can play the full game for FREE. Savage 2 is still in development.

The C & C Series
And the RA series are my faves.
Haven't tried Generals yet, wonder if it's any good.

Warzone 2100 for the PS(2?) Is one of the greatest I have ever played.

Hey, I remember playing the demo for that game on PC about 7 years ago.
That was an awesome game.
