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.
After 2030, the Russian Air Force modernized itself further and there were even some changes to how to it operated. With the European Invasion being a convenient opportunity, the VVS put its new arm into action. A small number of fast response squadrons handling interception, reconnaissance and close air support that exclusively operated on the frontline. These men and women were once fresh recruits but quickly became battle hardened in these few years and have seen and lived through more combat than any other pilots of their generation. The lives of these pilots are popular material of modern novels and movies. ‘Red Squadron’ the partially fictional story of an infamous fighter wing that flew and dominated Europe’s skies was Russia’s bestselling book and movie for over 2 years and has won international acclaim.
wait does that mean you can only store 3 aircraft, not the normal 4, as it only has 3 hangers?
other than that, it looks great :-)
Maybe they should make an additional 4th hangar. :-) It would be easy for them, taking it by look of the airfield.
Anyway, a great model! :-D
Or place 3 MORE Aircraft right in front of the hangers.
We decided to make it a 3 aircraft airfield to make Russia's airforce more unique. Also, this way it forces you to build more airfields; it's kind of a nerf for the Russian airforce.
Yeah the frogfoot is crazy sauce
bakurts are prob OP.
The black aircraft fighter (im doesnt remember what is name but sometime call Black Eagle Jet) its damage on its rockets was very weak....only destroy 1 tanks with those 3 aircraft?oh man....balance its rockets man!!but im enjoy another Russia units!!
This airfield also has an advantage to go with the disadvantage, less hangars but a runway for every plane.
mabey its smaller and cheaper
It IS smaller, but definitivly not that much cheaper.
FINALLY Russia is weakened in some sort. Now they will not had a stronh air force and US had a chance to dominate skies :D
That's right, you got the picture. We had to nerf Russia somehow. :)
I am happy that I am right in this. I am one of the few (or only one) who thinks that Russia is now too OP in every aspect. Stronger (and realativly massed) infantry could beat Chinese hordes, strong tanks have no match, even massed Battlemasters or advanced Crusaders, artillery, and airforce which do more damage then USA. Finally they had a "weakness". And also Russia has one great weakness, and it is that they cant use air transports, so their air assaults could made only with infantry :P They dont have a Mi-26 buildabble to carry Kodiaks and other vehicles xD
And in your update, it means that player must use Gen Point to unlock Airfield and Helipad? Or only one of them? Or what?
And did you still had a old models from RoE of the "wonders" like Eiffel Tower?
Ja, if you want an airfield (and thus Berkuts and Frogfoots) then you need to put in a Gen point. Otherwise, you'll just have the helipad for your airforce.
So a Helipad dont require a gen point, right?
Your right, it does not. =)
Hehe :) I am a great fan of the AF, so when 1.5 will be out, as Russia I will surely use a gen.pwr for AF xD But will there be also PAK FA and Havoc?
Volen, i think they said it alot of times. Generals specific units such as the pak fa and the havok will only be available with the generals release ( wich i belive it's 2.0 ).
And Hind is what? Or Tesla Tank and Golem? hmm? they are what when not Aleksandr's specific unit? Think before you post.
Volen, check the damn forums before you post stupid questions. Unlike you when i make a post i make it with information. The team already said many times before that out of the public renders, pak fa, havok and topol will only be released with the generals version.
Bouth havok and pak-fa will replace 2 of the current existing models for alexander, so adding them would just add redudancy. Wich is why new generals specific units are no longer added.
And now answer me, how I could check a forums, when i dont had a permission, hmm?
I did not know you are banned from the swr forums. I thought you only have problems on fallout and mystique. In that case i can only say - good luck on getting permission :) .
Take you "ggod luck", from YOU I dont want it.
And I dont have a problems on MGS...
I THINK THAT YOUR TEAM SHOULD PARTICIPATE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF GENERALS 2!
The model is better, and for balanced a hangar was removed, because the US is the real rulers of the sky (on the game =P)
I dont think removing a hangar makes it weaker than us. China airfield still has 4 hangars, but their airforce is no match against us one. I like the hangars, but i loved the old airfield design, especialy the whole control structure design. This one is more ... 'our days design' wich i'm not a big fan of.
In some way it makes Russian air forces harder to be destroyed. Now, in case of A-10 or artillery strike, you woun't lose all of your frogfoots.
Yeah, maybe in some ways. But for the most part, this is a nerf for the Russian air force, especially the fact that you need a gen point just to get air force.
Not a big loose i must say. Russian birds are worth it =)
OHHH...
I thought the high price tag on the federations airforce should be enough to balance.
Anyways, good model. loved the 3 plane ideia.
Uhh a Gen point for russian airfield? Well I hope in next versions you are not going to make Gen point for Berkuts and Frogfoots?
The gen point for Russian airfield includes the Berkut and Frogfoot. Which means if you put a point into VVS support, you get to build the airfield, Berkut and Frogfoot.
We're certainly not going to make you put a gen point for the airfield and the two more for each of the jets it produces; that's just dumb.
Rossiya's forces have been finally well-balanced...
It would be great, if US airfield had all four hangars looking same (just like here).
a nice innovation in ZH modding. 3 slots airfield :)
Nice design but.... Will the Aircraft be much better firepower than usual because it's only 3 instead of 4???
No, the russian aircraft is already strong enough, think about 4 Frogfoot bombing the hell off your base ;) This airfield will only hold 3 of them (or Berkut/PakFa) at max for a reason.
I agree with that. The Russian Aircraft is stronger than I expected to be... nah I was think it's the same capabilities as Chinese Airforce. The U.S. is strongest when it comes to Air Power.
I THINK THE PRICE FOR RUSSIAN BIRDS ALREADY BRINGS THE BALANCE TO THE POWER. HOW COME THAT FROGFOO, HIND ARE MORE THAN $2000? I DOUBT THAT MANY PLAYERS DON'T USE HIND /MAY BE EVEN HAVOC/ MUCH, BECAUSE ITS POWER DOESN'T JUSTIFY THE PRICE.
Yeah, they are very expensive even with mass production upgrade. They are hellish enough when attack, but they are defenceless against any AA. When such my expensive investment falls after few shots of poor RPG I'm gonna cry. At least countermeasures, just common countermeasures is what I dream for russian aircraft...
AGREED. 100%. COUNTERMEASURES, IF NOT PRICE, IS A GOOD MEAN TO BALANCE,
LET'S PAY A VISIT. Oh, look! Is that your house? - shouted Frogfoot pilot through radio bombing your base...
У русских конечно авиация прикольная=)Особенно Су-39))
The Soviets only need 3 hangers to store there massave bombers! :D
I like the model, but the fighter jet is a bit weak o.o....3 planes = 1 tank?...atleast 1 tank per plane?...so that arent mere cannon fodder?....or even simply make the fighter air to air only? XD
Did you notice that your wonderful Rise of the Reds mod is way better and more fun to play and has way more diversity than the Red Alert 3? :)
I will test the tactical advantage of this airfield tonight.
hello on mod 1.85 and 18.6 rotr i can't russia build an airport what's up?
