An expansion/overhaul mod of epic proportions, with entirely rebalanced gameplay, expanded factions, new gametypes, graphical overhauls, and five new factions; stealth-based Confederate Revolutionaries, tower defense-inspired Atomic Kingdom of China, economy-focused Mediterranean Syndicate, DotA-esque Order of the Talon and spammy Electrical Protectorate.
The Confederate's heavy bombing craft, the Skyfortress has two modes, selectable on the landing pad. The sesmic bombs damage and shut down structures, allowing you to render a whole base essentially useless with a single run. The anti-unit Firebombs stick to an area and burn for a long while, allowing you to use the run to cut off your enemy's retreat or deny them ground for a time.
wow, nice can't wait to use it in game :)
made for WW2, produced in WW2, fought in WW2, but it can hover, shoot napalm, and cause earthquakes...
sounds normal
it is for red alert
..and i wasn't kidding when i said it sounds normal
normal that almost sounds too simple
And I thought tonight couldn't get any better...
I've seen the render, but seeing the unit in-game is a completely different experience.
I'm Really Liking the new one!
Completely awesome! Hopefully the Sidewinder is next.
The wings will fold when it lands? Anyway, I really will enjoy having 40 of these and stomping people.
If you have that much money, you're doing it wrong.
No I'm not. I'm doing it very right indeed (reckless expansion FTW)
No, if you have that much money, your enemy is doing it wrong.
Yeah. Looks very fine and its abilities are even finer, yet it doesn't easily come in dozens, and can't be feasibly made into mass production.
Does it have any shortcomings? How fast can other anti-air aircraft take it down?
the seismic bombs are useless against units and napalm is useless against struchtures. The Century bomber on the other can kill anything with it's bombs, and can drop paratroopers.
As for the wings, I don't think so. When it lands I THINK the engines rotate instead.

The engines rotate and the wings fold up carrier plane style.
holy corsair, that sounds awesome! Much better then the previous telescopic folding :D
This thing looks made of win.
I like the touch of Seismic bombs EMPing a base.
Finally! I've been waiting for you forever!
get 10 of thenm if you get that much half shut the base down the other half burn the based down to the ground.
Come On Baby Light My Fire!
Looks... big!
Does the napalm bombs burn buildings too though? Or is it simply a uh burning sensation to soldiers on the ground?
Looks awesome you guys! :D
napalm is only effective against units, including vehicles. Seismic bombs aka earthquake bombs are what you use against struchtures.
So Do seismic bombs cause any damage or are they only EMP? Just trying to clarify :P
Edit: Nvm I just re-read the information. :)
Do the several mounted turrets fire independently?
As far as I know, yes.
Awsome job guys! Can't wait to use it!
I can feel my foes trembling before my Bombers wrath.lol
Beautiful model, I can't wait to use this!
"Surrender or prepare to be bombed back to the Stone Age!"
Nice model! :)
Excerpt Barnes Wallis and the *earthquake* bomb
"the resulting shock wave would produce the equivalent of a miniature earthquake, destroying any nearby structures such as dams, railways, viaducts, etc."
"...the earthquake bomb had the ability to disrupt German industry while causing minimum civilian casualties. It was used to disable the V2 factory, bury the V3 guns,..."
Obviously there arent railways etc to destroy ingame just bridges/structures but for the game's sake, IMO the napalm should def burn up infantry, cause light dmg to vehs and the seismic bombs heavily dmg structures & cause some dmg to units in the direct vicinity of impact.
Infantry do get burned by the napalm bombs (vehicles too, but not as much), but you 80% of the time wouldn't use the Skyfortress to take out specific groups of infantry, you'd use them to block areas off.
Seismic bombs work exactly how you described them. After all, having a giant hunk of metal dropped on you from a high altitude would be painful indeed.
WOW NICE ONE! =D
Hiroshima baby! :D
FINALLY! ME BOMBER HAS ARRIVED!
And beautifully done I might say!
I would think a large bomber like that would need a conventional airfield to land? does it use the normal confederate one or something different like some kind of bomber command?
It is capable of VTOL operations thanks to it's pitching engines. It's Red Alert, just roll with it.
ah I got you,thanks for the reply
Is it allready included in the game?
:O'
Oh
my
god
