Strategy games have a ton of communities, one which has been poked recently into living (!strategy@lemmy.world) and many which are dead.

Tbf Real time strategy and turn based strategy are different and could exist separately
RTS and Realtimestrategy are the same ofc
I get the need for more generic communities getting bigger before we split out into niches (I say this as a curator for a niche community that could probably be merged into 2-3 others), but RTS and TBS are really very different experiences.
Absolutely. They’re nothing alike.
Coming back to the general vs niche community discussion
Aren’t those games close enough that a common community could be used at first?
Maybe, but it’s still worth keeping both RTS and Turn based strategy on hold for when/if the community grows. I’d argue the optimum scenario is to double-post all strategy-game related posts to a “strategy” parent community, and then post as relevant to RBS/TBS
Would you be willing to do so? The idea about having a general community is to make it easier for potential posters to contribute. As of now, nobody is posting to any of those communities, real time or turn based
