Project Tomahawk:Storm is just a rather old fashioned mod for VGen adding new units, upgrades and special powers while enhancing the current arsenals of all factions. 110% fun guaranteed. tl;dr it's Backwards Compatibility: The Mod.
Actual USA content!
The Mechanic gains a few more buildings to build (which include the Sentry Firebase & Tomahawk Battery below), but its ability to build drones has been removed.
This Starstreak with a crane is indeed the new Mechanic, while the old VZH one is...
somewhere.
Question: creating this mod for generals specifically- when modding the original generals game is there a big difference between the ZH engine and the stock Generals engine?
There isn't actually, it's just that you're kind of going back in time and using an older version of the engine (and it comes with things such as having less modules, only having 12 button slots, only 5 GP shortcut buttons, etc.)
Having less modules would be the biggest challenge/difference and it does force you to get creative with things since you won't exactly be able to implement something like you would in Zero Hour.
