While 0 A.D. has many interesting features, here are 5 things I found most impressive:

  1. The soldiers can gather resources and construct buildings as farmers.
  2. Unlimited population, I can make the big battles with thousands of soldiers.
  3. It’s open source.
  4. It’s cross-platform so I can play it on Linux.
  5. It’s 3D with very smooth experience.

If you have never played 0 A.D., this is the introduction on Play0ad:

0 A.D. (pronounced “zero ey-dee”) is a free real-time strategy (RTS) game of ancient warfare. Lead a civilization set in the imaginary year of 0 A.D., develop a thriving city, raise a mighty army and contend with rivals for hegemony of the world. History is yours for the taking!

I often play the month-long battles, each day about 15 or 20 minutes:
