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.

Report RSS Red December Update #2, Seconds?

One day away from X-mas marks our second update in a series of updates till the launch of RoTR. Though there's isn't a superweapon in today's update, it still has three jolly units from each faction. So why don't you come and open your presents?

Posted by on


Just as we promised we're back with a new update for you all, and while it may not be as spectacular as showing off a new and improved Superweapon we're sure you'll enjoy this update for all you Chinese, American and Russia fans.

To see what I mean lets move onto the renders shall we?


The American Protector
The Protector is the United States’ twenty first century approach to defensive warfare. Originally a naval missile platform meant to combat aircraft and ships, this AEGIS variant can be constructed in virtually any terrain. The Protector is substantially different from the old Patriot. First, it fires its missiles vertically allowing it to shoot down aircraft and missiles with more ease.
Second, it’s able to fire from behind obstacles such as structures and terrain. This allows the Protector to defend an area without actually exposing itself to enemy fire. It’s unknown at this time how the reloading and supplying of this defense happen as the Protector is completely unmanned. Military experts claim the Protector has a doubly redundant self feeding mechanism underground. It is capable of storing enough ammunition and that during extended testing the paint was stripped from the outer casing by the missile exhausts.


The Chinese Hellfire MiG
The People’s Liberation Air Force understands the importance of aerial warfare. While they diversified their air power, the Hellfire MiG was developed. It has become China’s first choice quick-strike bomber, while maintaining fighter-like speed and maneuverability.
Their low technology and simple avionics make an aircraft that is cheap to build and simple to pilot. Their payload is two unguided napalm bombs that can create firestorms in enough numbers. Though it’s capable of engaging in air-to-air combat with the proper ammunitions, the politics of the People’s Republic require the air-to-air duties be carried out by another aircraft.


The Russian Tesla Tank
The end result of a joint project between Andreev Labs and Moscow Factory No. 45 is a mobile version of one of Russia’s most feared weapon systems. The Tesla Tank might still be at an experimental staged but early field tests have indicated this to be one of the greatest successes born out of the Federation’s weapons development.
The Tesla Tank can decimate any infantry foolish enough to get in its way with ease, even in large numbers. This is a tactical vehicle of high importance to the Federation so only the elite Shock Troopers assisted by Andreev Labs technicians are authorized to crew them. The most frightening aspect of the Tesla Tank is its ability to overcharge its capacitors resulting in a deadly storm.

Now some extra content for ya:


Finally announce this minor but notable ability for the Berkut so beautifully demonstrated by Nidmeisters art below, we show you the Berkut Barrel Roll. Berkut "Evasive Maneuvers" grants the aircraft 4 seconds of Missile invulnerability, giving it the edge it needs to survive longer without a need of an upgrade.


Oh! It can dog fight too wink.gif
