Developer Vulcando has opened the beta for their free-to-play multiplayer RTS title Hive Rise to all.
This game grows on you. A free real-time strategy game with microtransactions isn't usually very much fun, but for Hive Rise it works. Enlist some buddies and check it out; at free-to-play, the price is certainly right.

"Last week we introduced you to Hive Rise, which plays a bit like 'Casual Command & Conquer' with quick maps supporting up to 1000 human players, downloadable replays, stat-tracking, and 12 modes of play.
Developer Vulcando Games just announced the client is now penguin powered, available for all you Linux geeks, and the system requirements seem pretty reasonable."
Downloading right now on Ubuntu. Based on the screenshots, the game definitely looks pretty cool.
