Blog 178 news - Red Alert 2: Apocalypse Rising

The Conscript might not be strong alone in an open battlefield, but he will kick your a** in close quarters such as tunnels and building interiors. He is one of the most iconic infantry of the Soviets and will be the default starting one for each commie player.
Therefore he will get at least 3 different head variants: normal, an alternate mask version, and one without masks. Expect not to see too many clones of yourself ingame.

This weapon in wielded by the standard infantry unit of the Allied faction, the GI. It's a decent weapon, but not as powerful as the one that the GI can use when deployed. While moving he can not use the big Minimi Para properly, thus he carries this in motion.

The Rocketeer is a great scout unit as it's small, fast and can fly over objects that other units usually have to go around. When it comes to dealing with Soviet units, he uses a pair of Talon Flechette Launchers. It is effective vs infantry, light vehicles and aircraft, but not too good against armoured targets.

We are looking for extra staff members to join our ranks! What we are looking for in a 2d artist, is someone who:

• is enthusiastic about working with the BHP Apocalypse Rising Team.
• has spare time.
• will be active in the foreseeable future (a.k.a we don't want you running off).
• is competent at creating their own 2d textures.
• is over the age of 16 (we overlook this if you are what we assess to be a mature individual. This rule is known as the TruYuri rule).

PM One_Winged_Angel with your application stating why you would like to join the team along with any past experience. Please provide example textures, if you have any.
