I took the liberty of relieving you of your ability to right-click, most of it was government property.

One of the nice things about Valve is that they’re okay with fan projects (regardless of how they turn out).

Well, one of the longstanding Half-Life fan projects, Lambda Wars, has finally released. The game is an RTS, and originally started in 2007 as a mod for Half-Life 2 before becoming its own thing.

And now, v1.0 has released, and you can play it. It also happens to be free, so you have little reason not to get on it. They’ve incorporated some nifty ideas in there; it’s an asymmetrical RTS with a host of game modes,from single player, co-op, and multiplayer versus, and the factions play very differently from each other.

You can get the game here. You know, assuming Steam is working for you.
