Not to add fuel on the fire, but I seem to recall back in the early
1980's playing several Intellivision games which are technically RTSs.
I forget the names (was Sea Battle one of them?) but I know there was a
naval game and a space-battle game where you deployed squadrons of
ships to intercept attacking forces. You could let the battles handle
themselves, or directly control them, but if you were fighting one, the
other forces were still moving, and would fight while you were focusing
on another.
