Rise of the Reds – or ROTR for short – improves upon the C&C Generals formula while also adding its own distinct elements to it. Most notably, the mod adds two completely new factions, the tank-heavy Russian Federation and the defence-oriented European Continental Alliance. In addition, the three original factions China, USA and GLA have been greatly expanded and redesigned in a variety of ways, with several new units, buildings, powers and abilities to explore and combine in your in-game tactics.
When President Suvorov stepped in front of the public to announce his decision to declare war on the Europeans in the summer of 2045, the Russian fleets in the Northern, Baltic and Black Sea were already underway. In an extremely literal example of 'gunboat diplomacy', an armada of over a dozen vessels led by the aircraft carrier 'Potemkin' passed through the Bosporus unopposed by Turkey. After the collapse of NATO, the country had virtually nothing more to do with the Europeans and turned its attention to stabilising the war-torn Middle East as a regional peacekeeping power instead. Upon entering the Aegean Sea, the fleet was picked up by the Greeks. Shunned and ignored by the new European community and isolated between Russia's Balkan allies, the leadership in Athens coldly decided to let the Russians move on without warning their former allies. As a result, the European governments only noticed the Russian incursion into the Mediterranean Sea through news reports rather than diplomatic channels. Soon after, a mobile long-range radar unit in Calabria detected the fleet just a few kilometres off the coast of Italy. The government reacted immediately: All air, land and naval forces were mobilised, the Alpine redoubts in the far north of the country were prepared to shelter thousands of civilians and even the Pope was hastily evacuated to Ireland mere hours before hundreds of cruise missiles rained down onto Rome, destroying many historical landmarks of the 'eternal city' in what could only be described as an indiscriminate terror attack; an unsanctioned but common occurrence during the early days of the war when the Russian military was still hungering for revenge after the alleged attack on Kaliningrad. It was only thanks to these sophisticated radar systems that an even higher magnitude of destruction could be avoided. As such, the Mobile Sensor Array remained a valuable tool for the ECA, providing the troops with reliable long-range reconnaissance and detection.
Remind me tiberian sun :)
............
In a very very very very nice way.
it also doubles as a catapult :P
the european stealth detecting venicle? very cool)
Potemkin?
POTEMKIN BUSTAAAAAAAH !!!
LoL nevermind, just remembered Guilty Gear when read the description :)
- About new render -
If someone didn't see it yet
Yea the credits on this template are actually wrong xD Will be updated later today.
Wait what, they destroyed Rome? Okay, sorry Russia, but that's just wrong. I'm siding with ECA now.
Russian why destroying Rome,Rome was the inspiration of romanov clan dat created russia!
So what does it do exactly?
It's something similiar to chineese "Listening Outpost" I guess...
ever played c&c tiberian sun? there's a unit in that game with the exact same name and i'm guessing the exact same function - deploy the vehicle and it reveals cloaked units in a large radius.
First comment was about it :)
i never use it.
not saying its bad or anything, just that i dont like things which can only detect stealth, i prefer versatile stuff.
The only Italian guy on ROTR is this unit.
looks like Test how strong you are machine
i like how much efforts you guys spend on the backdrop of the game!! not the usual CnC way by telling stuffs such as technology that are directly related to the unit; in here, the units become the platform to tell the story of the game instead!!
