A rather bold attempt to recreate and extend the siege New York first Allied mission of Red Alert 2 in a total conversion scenario for Civilization II MGE.

Description

Here's the full imported unit line up for the scenario!

All stats and abilities have been completed as well which took ages as ensuring balancing but faction uniqueness is not easy thing lol!

As for the graphics, well unlike the custom high res C&C assets that gave me no end of problems and converted pretty badly in my C&C Africa scenario these RA2 unit assets were actually very similarly sized to Civ2 ones so I was able to do nice 1:1 conversions of most of the units resulting in a better looking lineup. In cases where downsizing was required I did my best to make it as small a reduction as possible. Probably the only units that required a nasty 50% reduction where the Kirov, Aircraft Carrier and Dreadnought units but I changed their angle slightly to ensure as much detail was kept as possible. The Red Alert 2 colour palette also converted very easily into Civ2's so all that was left to do was some recolouring of the team colours to make the red and blue more pronounced (so they stand out on a huge map). Just for fun I also stuck all the build icons from RA2 into this picture and even made a few of my own (only seasoned RA2 players will probably spot them though haha).
