Warcraft has really put a bad name on the term real time. Real time can be (and is) a good thing if used properly. Why are you so prejudiced against real time? There are plenty of good examples of real time in games that are absolutley not click fests or anything of that nature. Combat systems such as in Birth of the Federation are real time, but have certain time intervals of real time, followed by a pause in which you issue new orders. How is this bad? It isn't, except that you get more options if you allow the turn intervals to be user defined (ie: continuous real time with being able to pause and issue orders).
