Contra is a freeware modification for Command and Conquer Generals: Zero Hour real-time strategy game and one of the first mods for this game. It adds many new units as well as numerous new upgrades, new general's powers and buildings.

Air Force general depends on speed and precision. He requires skillful control and is heavy on micro management. While being a powerful general the skill and experience required makes him difficult for many beginners to play.
Laser is a versatile general strong in call situations. He is flexible and has units to fill every combat role. As a result he has no weaknesses other than being a specialist at nothing.
Advantage of this general is easy micro and very simple strategy. Almost the same vs. all enemies - build up around enemy until he dies. However, you should not ignore other abilities.
The generic feature of this general is his mobility, which allows to move an entire army very fast and create numerical superiority at desired areas of the battlefield. His basic strategy is unstoppable maneuvering along enemy base perimeter. If he finds a weak point in defense, he moves there instantly and destroys the most significant targets.
Nuke General must rely on aggression to defend his base. He has no defenses to hide behind while you wait for your nukes to load. The absence of defense structures forces the player to be more active and aggressive. Use your units to carry out counterattacks for defense and support your main attack with super weapons.
Infantry is a volatile general given to decisive victories or defeats in the early game. As expected, he relies on masses of infantry in the early game, later reinforced by more infantry. In the late game he gains powerful artillery strikes supported by the same infantry.
His strategy is easy to understand, but not as easy to implement: build more tanks and attack. But everything has its details.
He has the same strategy as tank general, but different means for its implementation and different battle tactics. His vehicles are not as armoured as tank general's ones, so he has to use artillery and different tactics and tricks, instead of forcing his way through.
Toxin General specializes in area attacks and damage over time. He is especially effective vs mobbed units and hordes. If well played, you will find all of your positions unapproachable for the fields of acid and poison.
He is a versatile and powerful general with demanding micro management needs. Since almost all units are disposable, you must use them with care, directing almost all kamikazes manually. The more assiduously you play - the more complex it becomes for enemy to defend from your endless flows of kamikazes. If you play properly, you can defeat any other general.
While at a glance his units are weak and poorly suited of combat, Stealth General is a deceptively powerful general using infiltration and surprise to his advantage. He has long range sniper units capable of attacking with impunity against units lacking stealth detection. He is a challenging general to play, but has a strong reward for the effort given.
Assault is a flexible general with flexible units. He requires low micro management and is well suited for most players. While having no spectacular abilities he also has no weaknesses.

Not very much is known about this elite commando, other than she is armed with Cryo Beam and Cryo Rockets. The rest you will have to figure by yourself!
Col.Burton is no longer in SW general Alexander`s service. We say thanks for many loyal years!
We are back with new special structure, this time for Nuclear General.

Alright thx so much, i cant live without this server xd. I wont cause anymore troubles but literally that guy who think himself an arab and used google translate has all caused this after all
(Update): sorry no longer interested because my best friends left the server
Hello, I just want to first say that I enjoy playing your mod as a way of keeping the game alive for me, I have a question about if there is an addon to the mod where a shortcut key icon could be displayed for every icon? (Ex: Attack Move "A" displays the letter A in the corner of the picture)
There is no such addon for Contra.
In the Generals Challenge, is it possible to have the penultimate match before the final boss be the general you're playing as?
For example, if you're playing as the Laser General, after beating the Air, Superweapon, and Cyber generals, you have to do Laser vs. Laser before fighting the USA Boss. A mirror match, basically.
I tried editing the .ini files to make it happen, but some stuff like super unit/weapon limits don't seem to work regardless of difficulty. Certain buildings also seem to be unbuildable in some matches (like the supply center in the Nuke challenge). I don't know how much work it will take to make it function properly.
Regardless, thanks for the fantastic mod!
Hi DEV
Can you add a cool mod in general challenge that change all map from every general after you defeated all general and won the general challenge ?????
I have a major issue: Cannot finish Chalklange of Demolition general with Infantry. The win message wont show up. I really searched the whole map with thousands of concripts, dozens of listening outposts, and hundreds of engineers... if someone can help, let me know... i don't enjoy games often and I loved this mod so much... Even giving me a save file would be extremely appreciated... student.makovsky@@[gmail.com](members:gmailcom:1498337)
