They have long stayed dormant. The Giant Ants have returned and are now wreaking havoc against those who tried to elminate them. Will you help them achieve their revenge or will you be the one to stop them? Colony Wars is a partial Conversion Mod for Red Alert 2 : Yuri's Revenge. The Mod aims to add in the Giant Ants (The Colony) as a fully playable side,A New Set of Campaigns for each side as well as adding new toys for the original three sides. Allies,Soviets & Yuri. Awaken the Swarm!!!
The Hydra has gotten minor graphic tweaks (Shipping Container) to further aid in showing its role as a unit transport.
I find it amusing how much it looks like this: Moddb.com
Did we happen to have the same inspiration source? :)
Flickr.com Mainly this with an edit of Mevitar's Superhind
you say "to aid in showing its role", but it still has rocket pods - maybe it's better to take those off and add some wheels to depict that it doesn't land on the container itself.?
and maybe make container bit "taller"?(looks kinda squished as it's a separate part/not blended with main body)
It's an "Assault Transport" Currently its role is a unique replacement for a shared Mobile War Factory Unit. So it having an assortment of rockets + Cannons means it can also function as a gunship once you finish unloading its passengers (of which it has 9 slots which means it can fit up to 3 Medium Vehicles, 9 Infantry/Terror Drones or 1 Monster Tank (Apocs in Soviet's Case) and 1 Medium Vehicle. As for it lacking wheels the Nighthawk didn't have them as well so I thought it would seem fine but I'll extend the container a bit further down.
That's a big guy.
