RTS game project ideas

so…i’ve never created a flash game but was thinking maybe i should give it a shot as a “for fun” type of thing. the reason for this thread is as follows

A. advice on creating a flash game
B. game ideas(what would be fun and cool)
c. RTS and flash

I’m definately no noob with flash and AS2, however, I’ve never created a “game”…which, im assuming its basically a website(structurally) with more interactivity and movement/animation…correct me if im wrong.

I’m a RTS guy(Total Annihilation, Supreme Commander, Red Alert, Age of Empires) type of games…so i was thinking of creating a smaller, simpler version of one of those games. You know, economy vs. production type of thing…dunno

I also thought it might be a good idea to break into AS3 with a project like this…

Another thought is i HATE playing flash games that can be beat in minutes, so i’d like to make something with a login/database to save and/or have accounts, etc…

thoughts? anyone want to help? Game ideas?

RISK to this day is one of my favorite board games and to my knowledge there is no flash version…might be a good idea
