Let me start by saying that Dark Reign 2 isn't the only 3D-RTS game out there. There are at least two others - Ground Control and Earth 2150. Both games are getting good reviews, and it looks increasingly as though Dark  Reign 2 is the going to be the only 3D-RTS to get some very bad reviews.  Why? Part of that is due to bad timing, since Ground Control and Earth 2150  were released first. The other reason is because there are deficencies in  gameplay that should've been corrected before they were released.
