This is not an engine in itself, this is just a term that can be used as a name for the "2D" RTS games Westwood Studios developed. They never officially announced, named or released this engine.

It was just added and named internally for purposes of ModDB by a member of the community.

Greetings, commander.

This is my first time to submit a new article here. Now let me introduce what I share.

1.Who are you?

I am Pusheen, the translator of Rynderack Project.

2.What is Rynderack Project?

The Rynderack Project" series campaign was made by the famous map designer, Heli"竹蜻蜓" since 2018. Till now, The Rynderack series missions have released three packs.

3.What about its story?

What I shall share is the first pack. The 1st pack tells a story about the Soviet "Iron Curtain Project" charger Rynderack rebelled Yuri's evil plan, including other splendid adventures, the European seized last survival string, trying to salvage their defeat, Chinese genius hacker Tianshu discovered the unbelivable secret between his country and Yuri.

4.What is its feature?

During the high difficulty, it contains large and massive fighting scenes, including alley conflict, city combat , navy battle and others. All units data are based on original YR 1.001 version. Details in Introduction File.

5.What did you do?

I have translated the Chinese characters about Rynderack part into English language, including story tellings, intelligence details, mission introduction. The main part of texts are complete.

6.How many missions?

7 Allied missions+7 Soviet missions+2 extra hidden missions, totally 16 missions. Recommending to play Allied first then following Soviet.

7.What's the difficulty?

Casual, as easy mode, for new beginners.

Normal, as medium mode, Westwood official regular hard level, strongly recommended for those who are first-time enjoying game and medium level.

Brutal, as hard mode, for challengers. Without strategy and rounded game, this difficulty would be unpleasant. It is recommended to choose the brutal difficulty when the campaign is played all round, and players are familiar to the mission.

1.We discovered a wrong name when campaign A5 is saved. "Euro Union 06- Nuclear Pacifism". Now it has been fixed correctly in "Euro Union 05- Nuclear Pacifism".

1.19th. 2024 updated:

1.Some players want to know the way of hidden mission. I have explained the method into "introduction files" and "translator's message."

This is definitely one of the best "engines" designed for RTS games. Especially the later versions (used for example in Red Alert 2) have many great features such as lighting and ambient sound system.

Dune II, albeit not CNC canon, also greatly shares ancestral heritage with this engine
