MegaGlest.
By MegaGlest project
MegaGlest is a free 3D real-time strategy game. Players pick one of seven factions, gather resources, and train units on maps with rivers, mountains, seas, or cliffs. Official installers cover Linux, Windows, and macOS, and the download page also links Steam and GitHub. Images and other game data are under the project's CC-BY-SA terms.
The F7 Insight
Seven factions on one ruleset is a useful study in readable asymmetry. The sword-and-lettering logo can be shown because the project puts images in the CC-BY-SA data grant, separate from the GPL source.
