StarCraft is a bit of a different beast, 90% mechanics

Id argue there is much more strategy and tactics in Starcraft Brood War.

Red alert is mostly tanks and dogs. Production is very simplified. Units are very similar.

In starcraft strategy defined as "what you want to do" is deeper, since there are more poasibilities to expand. Also much more unit mix (not sure if this counts as tactic).
