You mentioned that you didn't like Warcraft 3 because of the micromanagement issues. DOW remedies that to a great extent because you don't need "workers" to gather resources. You build a few powerplants but the bulk of resource gathering is done automatically by capturing "Strategic Points". Once your soldiers capture a strategic point your Requisition resource begins trickling in. The more strategic points you capture, the faster the requisition comes in. You can also built listening posts on the strategic points which makes it harder for the enemy to capture. Listening posts also increase the rate that requisition comes in.
Long story short... the bulk of your game is spent focused on your troops and combat (which is the way it should be). Once in a while you might select one of your builders to build a turret or some kind of structure but once your core base is built you pretty much just leave it alone except for researching technologies and building troops at your barracks.
