Rise of the Reds – or ROTR for short – improves upon the C&C Generals formula while also adding its own distinct elements to it. Most notably, the mod adds two completely new factions, the tank-heavy Russian Federation and the defence-oriented European Continental Alliance. In addition, the three original factions China, USA and GLA have been greatly expanded and redesigned in a variety of ways, with several new units, buildings, powers and abilities to explore and combine in your in-game tactics.
From now on, this heavy strategic bomber will be used to deploy the EMP Bomb and ECM Burst General Powers
this is so much better
let the bombs fall
Soon, all shall fall before China! [General Leang's quote]
very sexy, a lot better than the shockwave bear
Ah, such a big target to shred up, is looking forward to it. :P
No H8
There's also no lightning-zapping tanks and no cannons that shoot a beam of light into the sky and gets reflected down.
That being said, why not make it jet-powered? It's all awesome and stuff, just wondering.
It's an efficiency thing I believe, not sure if that matters though...
Given it's probably a turboprop, it kind of is. (Well, it's still a gas turbine, anyway).
But yes, as it was already said, greater efficiency (at low speeds) and some other benefits as a side effect(like shorter takeoff distance).
Never mention that it makes the Chinese units UNIQUE compared to American B-52 ( 8 turbojet engines).
