What you should be looking for are articles on RTS game design. I started a tutorial years back on creating an RTS using DarkBasicPro. I can't access their forum from work(firewall blocks game-related sites) but if you visit: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=44248&b=6
One of the stickied threads relates to my tutorial. I'm guessing you probably don't want to use DarkBasic, but take a look at the topic anyway. I posted several links to various open-source RTS projects I've found over time. Some of it might be useful for you.
