You can always play Rise of Nations? True, it doesn't go into the far future, but it's in all ways a more polished experience than Empire Earth.

Yeah, RoN is my preferred RTS throwback game. Such a good game. I think the later ages are poorly done though. I usually limit the game to 2-3 age advancements. Super fun.

Thanks for reminding me, a series I completely missed out on. Time to revisit them.

agreed.... age of empires was a nice intro but empire earth is where so many hours of my youth were spent
