EDIT BY BOW:
The SRF alliance (now recruiting users outside of SRF as well, and therefore renamed into Obsidian Sky Alliance (SKY)) now has a full forum outside of SRF. Visit us at http://worevolutions.darkbb.com/ for more information.


Quote:
New advice added by MrBow:
Before playing, make sure you read the following rules/guidelines posted on the Ikariam boards:
http://board.ikariam.com/thread.php?threadid=2

Short important list out of the rules:
    * Create only one (1) account on alpha server! More accounts = banned by Ikariam.
    * Try to use as little as PC's (IP's) possible to avoid being accused of account sharing, which is illegal as well! Ikariam may ban for it whenever they like.
    * You can only attack (pillage) someone up to six (6) times a day! Anything over 6 is called bashing, which is illegal as well.
As some of us already have experienced, Ikariam does not hesitate to ban players without excuse. We say, better avoid than cure.


http://ikariam.com

Has anyone played it?

Ikariam is a free, browser game which means that no download is required. You pretty much start out with you own little town in an island and the point of the game is simply to build up your empire.

There are many features in the game like colonizing other areas of your own island or of different islands (besides your main capital city), declaring war on other players and invading them, blockading off their harbors, trading with other players through ships and forming and joining alliances and much MUCH more.

This isn't an rts game but it has some similar characteristics. Imo, this game is pretty fun (started a couple of days ago) for times when you have extra time on your hands.

I have an account on the Alpha server, my username is Morgoth, and my island coordinates are (76, 9)(you'll know what im taking about once you play) and my town name is Atlantis. I hope we can play together sometime.

Here's a couple of screen shots:
