Red Zone Europe, RZE for short, intends to combine Sci-Fi technology with Realistic gameplay. No, no laser swords here that could cut off the barrel of a tank :P

You will not see any conventional cannon, like howitzers or MGs here, only missiles and energy weapons, counting Railguns to the energy weapons. Railguns are, beside cruise and ballistic missiles, the heaviest weapons you will see here, as they can decimate any tank in a matter of a tenth of a second. "GreenBeem" laser, spelled improperly on purpose, are the weakest variant of laser weaponry you will see, Ruby Lasers, firing red beams are a bit more powerful, but still, not the best.

Concentrate on combat: RZE features a new resource system, that allows for full concentration on combat:Take commercial targets in order to gain credits: Super markets, car shops, yeah even "Frittenbuden"!

This one might be one of the first CnC mods to feature (half-)realistic dog fights: Aircraft launch missile for missile, and use board cannons, instead of just firing a swarm of missiles and going home. Watch out for strategic bombers: Some might have ball turrets or similar defense mechanisms on them.

The two features Factions are the Western Coalition (WC), a North America based army, that is at war with the EUDF.

the EUDF being the European Union Defense Force, which as the name implies, is a joint military organization of all EU member states.

After a few months of nothingness, here we are again. I introduce the RAH-76 Commanche, RAH-76C Chinook, and the Humvee. I'll got for the Commanche first.

The Commanche is essentially an Orca, with the diference that it is not as fast, and has ATGMs instead of a heckload of rockets. It uses a set of Electrically powered impeller engine, powered by a gas turbine inside of the body, and it has batteries, so it can fly for a short while almost loudless, and by the use of advanced nano materials, it repairs itself in time, on the other hand, is also rather fragile. As board cannon it has a railgun, to which it can re-rout power from the engines and other systems, forcing it to land but vastly increasing the power of the railgun, but due to the higher speed, and thus higher friction, lowering the range somee. And it disables the ATGMs, But it can also re-route power from the weapons and hull regeneration to the engines, and so making it much faster. It also has room for 10 soldiers in the back.

And I continue with the Chinook, which is a modified Commanche, for cargo operations.

Think of Orca dropship, with active defence and a gun. Its ammunition dump for the missile racks was replaced with another power source, allowing for extra thrust. In fact, it can lift 90 tons beside itself, quite impressive, huh? hehe. And it only weights 3 tons by itself. It can, just like the Commanche, re-route power from all systems to the engines to allow for faster travel, but it can also travel slower, but power up an active defence. It can carry a single vehicle, up to medium tanks. It can also land and provide repairs for nearby vehicles. You should never leave it without escort tho, it is a found prey for any AA capable unit. It also lacks the sensors of the Commanche, which lowers the accuracy and firepower of the railgun.  Hull regeneration and reinforcement of the RAH-76C however are superior to those of the RAH-76.

And last but not least, the Humvee. Not much to say on this one: It can now cloak, is faster, is better armoured and has a minigun as well as active defences and ECM projectors.

That's it for now. Textures will follow once I got the lazy arse who I am to skin them :P

This mod is looking nice. However the aircraft does look a bit fat, perhaps making a bit longer would make a difference

Somewhere you have to store the laser and the upgraded engine with VTOL abilities <>
