Many people complain about the new AI but I like it more tbh. Peasant level really doesn't feel like a challenge at least those factions I've played against. Soldier level haven't been able to beat yet.

I find the new tactics the AI employs far more entertaining, like when they're trying to flank your army or lure you out to attack your base with some reserve battalions. It's fun to play agains such an intelligent computer and I don't even remember the last time a RTS was this entertaining. In most

RTS games the AI will make use of the rock-scissor-paper modalities but it will always seem they know beforehands what units have you produced (AoE, Starcraft and such) while tactical battlefield behaviour is almost always out of question. Flanking, ruses and lures are out of question categorically. While such games are a frustrating combination of rush and brute strength, this mod manages to give not only the most complete but also the most realistic experience in terms of strategy.

This is one of the highest quality mods ever made for Red Alert 2 both in terms of graphics and concepts.

Graphics are unified, all units looking proper and none out of place. Units of the same faction have the same style and something really good is the realistic Vehicle/Infantry size ratio especially in the recent screens of the yet unreleased version.

Conceptually, it is unique from any other mod, with clear organization and planning for future content.

On this level of quality, until now, there are only Mental Omega, Red-Resurrection and the unreleased Red Counter-Strike. Among these 4 mods I can't put one above the others as they are unique each with its own original concept.

No.1 mod for Zero Hour. Without any doubt.

Beautifully done! Bravo! Bravo! As a long-time Heroes III fan I say, well done!

Many years ago, on the Taleworlds forums, I announced I was working on a Heroes III mod I never finished. I'm glad you guys at least did.

I hope I see this mod get better and better, and maybe get Bannerlord aswell (it would actually give you guys more modding possibilities).

It is so awesome now, and it can get a lot more! Good luck!

10/10

Why? Because I simply can't stop playing this mod. Graphics is awesome and the gameplay even more. For some strange reason every single skirmish game feels unique. It's not that it has many units/side, it doesn't have many sides either, but the faction design (not in the graphical sense) somehow makes possible the continuous replayability of this mod.

Simply an amaizing mod.
