I remember playing a fantasy rts demo a long, long time ago. I don't remember what it was called, I don't remember what happened to it (it might have been canceled), and it triggers my ocd something awful.

Traits I remember:
1. It was fantasy
2. There were three sides you could choose
3. The third side may have been demons or dark elves or something and I vaguely remember being able to build beholder-like flyers. #3 is the one I'm most uncertain about since I don't remember any details whatsoever.
4. It was supposed to be multiplayer only
5. It may or may not have been canceled (i'm guessing it was otherwise it would be easier to find)
6. There was a playable demo of it

Yeah, kinda vague, but if I remembered better specifics maybe I could figure out what it was on my own. Any ideas?

Not much to work with. War Wind (I or II) perhaps?
Or maybe Blood and Magic, but I reckon that one was pretty distinctive.

They're both way too old and War Wind is single player focused. I'm pretty sure the game was from the early-mid 2000s.

KINDA vague? I would hate to see what really vague looks like.

Thread title says RTS but your post says RPG. Derp.

The game was in english and 2d. Graphics were typical bright fantasy fare.

Kingdom under Fire (the one from 2001)? That had a faction with dark elves, demons and weird floating things. It has only 2 sides though.
I think later KuF games went into some sort of MP only MMO-RTS/RPG hybrid and some of them got canceled?

Edit: maybe it really is Armies of Exigo after all. 3 sides + beholder is a pretty close match.

Armies of Exigo won't recognize my integrated card, I guess I won't be getting my fantasy rts fix after all.
