THIS IS A MOD OF RISE OF THE REDS! Rise of the Reds is a great mod made by our friends at SWR Productions. Check it out here!
Required: Rise of the Reds 1.87 PB2.0
Installation Procedure: ZH 1.04 -> Rise of the Reds 1.85 -> Rise of the Reds 1.86 -> Latest Rise of the Reds 1.87
This mod is an Overhaul-style mode of ROTR - a reimagining of the formula in a more balanced and fun way for online play. It adds many new units and abilities more balance changes. The aim of the mod is to change the way you perceive the gameplay of Rise of the Reds 1.87 to something that is more similar to Zero Hour and other classic C&C games.
In the new RC1.0 Version, there will be 15 Generals for you to play with, from the Russia's Zhukov with his Tactical ICBMs of Doom, to sneaky Secret Police Jin, he is always on watch.
This patch can only be played online if all other players have the patch. This patch will not corrupt your 1.87 installation - the Babushka's Revenge launcher is completely compatible with original ROTR and all other SWR mods like Shockwave.
You can use the Radmin VPN service to join multiplayer game (more information on the download)
FAQ:
Q: I want to install Babushka's Revenge, but I cannot find v1.87 whatsoever!
A: The v1.87 Rise of the Reds can be found on Swr-productions.com OR on the official Babushka's Revenge discord. Out of respect to the original creators of Rise of the Reds, I am not allowed to freely provide the download for this version publicly.
Q: Me and my friends are having mismatches? What's wrong?
A: Check your versions before you play. Everyone should have the latest version. That is usually the issue but sometimes the mod mismatches due to having AI. Finally, sometimes the game mismatches for misc. reasons. There's not much you can personally do about that (or I for that matter)
Q: The mod is looking really weird... all the UI is screwed up...
A: Usually the issue is either some sort of WIDESCREEN addon. Remove any widescreen addon and browse the addons section for BR-compatible widescreen addons. For example there is the official widescreen addon from ROTR.
Q: There's invisible units, structures and other weird graphics.
A: You have not installed the game properly. It must be installed in the following order: ZH 1.04 -> ROTR 1.85 -> ROTR 1.86 -> ROTR 1.87 v2.0 -> Babushka's Revenge, as shown above ^^^. If you have any difficulties, contact us on the Discord :)
Q: Where are the 15 Generals? I'm in Skirmish and I can only see the original 5 factions.
A: The generals are found in-game, select them from your command center.
Q: Will there be a campaign/challenge mode?
A: The answer is it is PLANNED.
Q: Will there be navy?
A: Maybe... it's unlikely you will see new maps, and the full navy roster would take a long time to fill out due to lack of models and hard to balance nature of it. However you can be sure they will appear in some missions ;)
Q: This thing is unbalanced or something? WTF?
A: If you have any sort of balance concerns of any sort, use the Babushka's Revenge discord, in the pvp-feedback channel. However, keep in mind that there is a general design philosophy behind the creation of this mod and we reserve the right to all changes of course.
Q: Is there/Will there be new Tech Buildings?
A: Yes. no i'm not gonna spoil them here ;)
Q: Will there be new epic units of some sort?
A: Probably not. There is very little space for epic units in Skirmish/Multiplayer modes but you may see them in future campaign missions or custom maps.
Q: How do I play multiplayer?
A: Follow the multiplayer guide in the Readme provided with the installation of the mod. It includes the installation of Radmin VPN, which is the software most current players are using to play BR. If you're still having trouble, we're very happy to help on the main discord.
Q: I have some other question I want to ask?!?!?!?!! But it's not in the FAQ?!!?!?
A: Ask in the discord bro ;)

i think I made a huge mistake when I was trying to extract the file and I messed up the download files, how can I fix it? I love the rise of the reds so far by the way.
In what way have you messed it up? Make sure you install in this order:
Original Zero Hour 1.04 -> ROTR 1.85 -> ROTR 1.86 -> ROTR 1.87 Public Beta 2.0 (you can find this on swr-productions.com) -> Babushka's Mod (any version, extract to installation folder)
If you already have Babushka's mod and would like to install a later version, you must uninstall the old version and install the new version. You do not require any new folders. Babushka's mod will ruin any other installations in the same folder.
when I downloaded the file I did not get a zip file to extract from, just a white paper icon, non executable, I did not give me the choice to actually extract anything from it.
hmm that's weird. Perhaps you have already extracted it? The file main file you extract should be called
!!!Enigma's Ultimate Babushka Balance Mod V.4.0.big
and some readme files. You place the file above in your ROTR directory.
do you know anyway I could change the properties of the document once ive downloaded it to make workable? I change it to notepad by mistake that's why is not working and I don't remember well how to do it..
right click > open with > choose another app
I just tried adding the file and It did not do anything, im afraid I messed the coding of the mod up when I opened it then..
Comrade, I suggest making units and structures from old C&C games.
That will make Babushka the greatest mod for Zero Hour!
Will the Babushka be a playable faction ?
lol no
Dammit ! I was eager to dip my enemies in boiling kompot
might be a secret unit if you want :P
Now that's what I'm talking about,comrade!
I need to try it out.It looks great!
hello i'm struggling to find the ROTR 1.87 PB2 patch, all the link i found on the web is dead link, can anyone tell me where to find the patch?
