0ad started as a AOE mod then they started their own engine and assets. I've been playing a lot of 0ad lately, I recommend it.

Technically it's 0 A.D., but that's a minor note. For those unfamiliar with the project, check out http://play0ad.com. It's a very mature codebase with over 10 years of development behind it. Everything is free as in freedom. One area they excel in that many other open-source games struggle with is in the quality of their models and art. I even know several other open source games which re-use the models.
I love the music in the game: http://play0ad.bandcamp.com/ How many free games come with something like that!
