So right now watching through the Amnesia Fortnight 2014 Documentary I saw not only the boxed version of Empire Earth, but also of Empires: DotMW in one of the videos. Which is an awesome find. It's good to know that even though Empires is not as widely known, also partly because it's not on Steam or any other similar sites anymore, it still has a special place on the shelf of some game developers even today.

Here's the video, the games can be seen at 27:32: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQTg3e2Mj9Y
