Never played this myself but it does seem very Warcraft-y. Wonder if any inspiration or even developers came from this team.

Couldn't be further from the truth. The fundamental difference is that you don't really control units in Settlers, instead you build the infrastructure and units get deployed and working automatically (if they can).

In this sense I would compare Settlers to Populous, not Warcraft.

Widelands [0] is an attempt to make a similar-ish open-source game.
