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.
And just like the Scorpion, Marauders too can be upgraded with an additional rocket rack to increase the damage they dish out.
Now we can show them whose boss!
Nice, my favorite tank geting cooler and cooler. Great job SWR
shouldn't the rocket pack be a little more prominent? I mean its got a Truckload of space on the back and all...No bad karma please, just giving an idea.
thats where the tank of the toxin shell upgrade goes ;)
ooooohhh...Nice! :D
Soo...no chance of the rocket pods being mounted onto the roof and manually operated by an extra crewman like an externally mounted machinegun? :D
that would look too much mounted on 8D
I do find the rockets on the Marauder to be a tad underwhelming visually compared to a lot of the other Recycled upgrades. The gameplay of it is very cool though.

Marauder with rocket pods + full salvage upgrade + junk repair upgrade = GLA Mammoth Tank!
Of course it still need the "crush all vehicle beneath its treads upgrade" to be a true mammoth tank but its close enough.
Well, that depends on your definition of a 'true' Mammoth tank.
X-66 certainly didn't seem capable of it, in any case.
Lol you're right! Its been a long time since I played any C&C game release before Generals. I guess this makes them true GLA Mammoth Tank after all.
Since salvage upgrade from other faction will have drawbacks, so i think it should be same for salvage from gla. What are the drawbacks?
Let me take a guess:
Weaker armour or slower movement or longer reload?
Well, at the moment, the upgrades don't seem that drastic, and given that they're using equipment they're familiar with already, and they presumably now just have more of, the drawback might just be that they're not AS different from the original (US, China), or good at a particular task (ECA, Russia).
actually GLA is coping all this with its inability to snipe vehicle crews anymore, Getting a hijacker without moving it the right moment is a pretty hard job and most of the time instead of getting inside the vehicle it gets under it x_X so to get other tech units now its going for recycling which is far more unique :)
