INTRODUCTION


Greetings, I'm RixskyIcarus or Rix. I'm the project lead on Project Nevada: Mandatus, a full conversion mod for Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 - Yuri's Revenge. This article serves the purpose of an introduction to the project as well as a basic rundown on it's current status and planned features/roadmap.

PNM LOGO FULL

For a long time I've always thought that Madness Combat would transition well to the medium of an RTS with it's roster of twisted factions waring with each other across the vast wastes of Nevada and in the depths of realms beyond. That's what this project plans to do, to bring the improbable world created by Krinkels to the fold, to the medium of an RTS and to the Yuri's Revenge engine with help from engine extensions like ARES and Phobos. I've sadly only been modding RA2YR for a short while, my previous project "Disturbed Dimensions - Quantum Shift" never truly getting off the ground outside of ultimately small changes, however I hope this project will end up being quite different. The team and I have quite a lot of ambitious ideas that we hope will see the light of day though we're currently still drafting most of the features out. Despite what little we have at the moment there's a lot of room for "aggressive expansion" as we continue to obtain deeper knowledge on the inner workings of our tools.

BASIC

OVERVIEW, FEATURES AND WHAT'S TO COME (Hopefully)...


Project Nevada: Mandatus will feature a full scale conversion of Yuri's Revenge, changing all graphics, sounds and misc. to fit the world of Nevada. None of what was Yuri's Revenge will remain by the end... This is a takeover of the highest order..

- 6+
Unique Factions originating from the world of Nevada and beyond. Canon and Fanon alike.
The Agency (AAHW)
Nexus Core (NC)
Status Quo (SQ/The Protagonists)
Matter and Energy Reclaimation Company/Nexus Rebels (MERC)
Operational Detachment Nevada 51 (N51) - (Created by DarkSignal)
Bandits/Fanatics - (Crackpot Cult)
And More to likely follow...

- Each of the major factions will have their own campaigns following a deep story about diving to the depths of the origins of Nevada, The Machine that holds it all together and the Madness that is coming to consume it all. All while every faction tries to kill eachother!
Each faction will also have their own tech trees, units, hero units, buildings and so much more!

If all things go to plan, a few more factions are planned to join the fray as they hold quite a huge piece of the campaign's ACT II in their hands. These being

NEONEX (Good Guys, Created by Me)
The Brotherhood of the Nexus (BON, Created by NarrowedBlits)
The Eternal Order of Phobos' Will (EO, Primary Antagonists, Created by Me)

And outside of the story focused factions, there's also the possibility of adding
The Agency Against Malevolent Originals - (AAMO, Created by Jsoull)
Nexus Experimental Weapons Testing And Biological (NEWTAB, Created by ShootDaCheese)
And maybe more?.. Who knows..

But I think that wraps up most of the info I wished to inform all of you about. Hope this sounds interesting and I can guarantee you I'm excited to inform you all about the next bits of progress we make! Until then, take care!
