Simply, if League was an RTS like Civ, Endless Legend, and the like, how would each nation play? The nations seem to be:

Demacia

  • Small yet elite army
  • Hates magic
  • Xenophobic

Noxus

  • Expansion heavy
  • Culls weak links
  • Brutal political scene

Ionia

  • Value tradition
  • Spiritual magic
  • Connections to nature itself

Piltover/Zaun

  • Value science
  • Limited military offense-wise
  • Trade reliant (primary source of global tech advancement)

Freljord

  • Resiliant to winter
  • Divided
  • Barbarian heavy

Shurima

  • Ascended beings
  • Rising empire/New world power
  • Home to many powerful relics

Bilgewater

  • Powerful navy/Pirates
  • Sea trade
  • Bearded Lady religion

Mount Targon

  • Value religion
  • Martial prowess/"Mortal gods"
  • Limited technological advancement/Isolated

Bandle City

  • Magically advanced
  • Hidden within nature
  • Residents seemingly very long living, possibly high population

Icathia/Void

  • No order, only hunger
  • Corrupts both the world and its inhabitants
  • Use portals to enter/travel the world

Shadow Isles

  • Highly aggressive and benefits from mass death
  • Seemingly can travel across water and through air unhindered (during Harrowing at least)
  • Population is already dead, cannot die from non-combat sources

Um, dude Civilization is not an RTS, it's a turn based strategy game. RTS would be games like Command and Conquer, StarCraft, WarCraft.

That aside, I don't think you could adapt League of Legends into an RTS, not with the amount of nations. That is UNLESS, they write the story to World of Warcraft levels, having groups of nations gathering together into alliances, say like (Damacia, Ionia, and Shurima) becoming one alliance, with units and buildings representing each culture.

Just my thoughts.

Void would definitely play like a Zerg army. I feel like Piltover would play akin to the Protoss, heavy power but heavy costs. Demacia would likely have high power units that cost a lot, but also heal or have some sort of benefit, so it'd be like a small group of heroes fighting through the enemy ranks. Noxians would likely have swarm tactics. Zaun would have some form of augmentation for their stuff. Not sure about the rest, though.
