Every game genre is unique in one way or the other, there is always something that seperates one genre from the other. Let's take FPS games for instance, one of the key mechanics that defines games of these genre is the rush and action that comes along with it, and the ability to see things like you are actually seeing things from the eyes of the shooter. In terms of RTS I believe elements like resource management are one of the things that defines the genre.
 
Resources management and making decisions on the spot are characteristics of RTS games. The decisions you make will deeply affect you in the cause of your gaming. Scouting is also an important activity you need to carry out on your enemies.
