The RTS genre is now extinct, unfortunately. Other than Starcraft II, there really hasn't been a decent RTS in years.
You should give Company of Heroes a spin. It's such a totally different rts than your Starcraft/CnC. Focuses much more on strategy rather than resource gathering. Each faction has advantages. USA is much more infantry driven, where as the nazis have access to a more varied and powerful armored units. Focuses on securing strategic points to allow expansion of armies. Cut off the right point, your opponent can't train units. Veterancy is a big deal, as squads and units that rank up are more effective in combat, gives you an incentive to take care of your veteran units.
My poor PC is on its last leg, and I a have a hard time playing it now. But if you want a different take on the rts genre that doesn't involve build orders and resource managements, give it a try

Company of Heroes
I have been playing Company of Heroes 2 which is awesome.
Also, some independent strategy games have been taking up my time.
Prison Architect - I definitely nerd out on this one. In real life Ive been building correctional facilities for a few years now. Ive been attempting to re-create past facilities I've built since I left LSU.
Door Kickers - Cool assault type game. You can pre-plan the assault and watch your SWAT team execute the entire plan.
