This is Eric Brice reporting for ECAN News giving you the up-to-date broadcast over the Russian advancement over our Union.
The morning started off with the roaring sound of rockets to many Europeans today as ECA Missile interceptors were launched to stop Russian attacks on ECA installations. From what the ECA Intelligence can gather, most of Russian advancements begin with the launch of their missiles to destroy ECA positions and then mobilize their troops to engage the softened forces.
ECA officials ensures interceptor missile sites will continue to fire on Russian missiles every day at every hour...

Conflict continues at the Belarian front as Russian forces continue to pour in from the East. ECA Battle Battalions have so far been meet with heavy Russian armament. Reports from ECA officials state that current tank armor have proven ineffective against Russian battle tanks, including the massive Russian Sentinel tank. European forces have begun a massive retreat towards more fortified positions due to the heavy Russian opposition at the front.
At another area of Belaria, ECA forces rallied around the battered front lines have begun a massive defensive strategy ato move west in order to construct an array of entrenched defensive positions around the Polish border to wait the imminent Russian invasion. Civilian evacuation out of Belaria continue as Russian forces close in several cities in the region. Civilians are urged to follow ECA officials and proceed to safe zones across Europe.

A massive European effort has begun to develop more effective defensive positions to hold out the Russian bear for as long as possible. Our American allies across the sea have pledged to send help as soon as they can. They are expected to send reinforcements sometime this month. So far our long time Chinese allies have not sent word but have talks within their government to send aid immediately.

So far the Union has lasted through the Russian war machine, we do not know if or how we are to combat these fearsome weapons but we are assured we will triumph against these odds. This has been Eric Brice for ECAN News. Good Night and Good Luck.

Hello again ROTR fans
Once again we are here to provide you with the latest news from the ECA front and as you may have been told from the News, it's defense based.
In the original Rise of Europe mod, the ECA utilized single tower type defenses, one for AT, another for AA and one for Anti Personel. Very similar to Ironside's defenses from ShW except without the need to upgrade a slab. Since our Russians already included the component tower feature, our team decided to mix it up a bit and we've come up with some interesting results:
Feel free to click on the images for further description.
As you may be able to tell, the ECA defenses will be some of the most cost-efficient and effective defenses in ROTR. Able to construct Fortifications with ease, a ECA player can bunker down for an incoming early game rush, with the ECA Batteries the player can lay waste to incoming enemy units and the crew assigned to the Battery can gain veterancy. A unique advantage over other faction's defenses (and its not the only one ). One other thing to note is, General Willem or the "Royal Guard" General will be able to upgrade to more resistant and heavily fortified positions.
Finally would like to announce that these defenses are just but 2 of the many defensive positions for the ECA, of which we will provide you later.
Well we hope you have enjoyed this update, good night!

Bah, pathetic.
The Story is **** and "the mighty Russian Bear" what does that mean, imagine GBs Germanys and France Army would have to fight against the red Army, they wouldn`t have a chance.Our Armies are lot more modern as the russian is. The German Leopard 2A6 is the best Tank in the world, the french and german Tiger the modernst Combat Helicopter, Great Britain with their great Navy and i could go on.... You Americans dont know whats going out in the real world, you just know about your country. russia is not a super power, they just want to.No Army in the world could stand against all Armies of Europe.
Yeah, right.....I want to see the EU try to stop 2.5 Million + Russian Soldiers advancing on whole EU borders. Along with those millions of soldiers, there would be thousands of tanks and ten thousands other vehicels including APCs/IVFS and whatnot. Russia would relay on supiror numbers, its that simple.
Also, for a game, the story is really good and no one of us knows what Russia will do in the future anyway.
We're also talking about a Command and Conquer game here. Besides you cant really complain about the story when the GLA, a terrorist organization consisted of WW1-WW2 vehicles took over Europe in Zero Hour.
ok, seriously, you need to chill. The Story's fine for the following reasons:
A). It's in the bloody future.
B). It's loosely based on reality
C). It's Generals! When did Generals have a super convinving storyline?
Sheesh, take a chill pill.
Although I did pull the 'mighty Russian bear' part out of my *** when I posted the update. :P

i meant the red army wouldnt have a chance, do you know that together we have about 500 million people living in europe??and every Country has its own Army it's not like that there is one army for the 500 mllion and because of this we have a lot more variety and mass of weapons for the 500 million then a power like russia have for their 142 million !!!
Oh, come on, this is just a game. Yeah, and also Russia has the most tanks in the world (40000 and 6000 of them are T72-T90) and also a huge arsenal of nukes, which Europe almost doesnt have.
Darthmus needs to chill out and stfu!
darthmus: I dont know what country your from, But if your german, then Kühlen Sie aus, Its a game, ;)
Also: in real life, Darth Is alittle right.. Russia Wouldnt have the fire power or man power to face against the US or EU together (Basicly NATO, or the 'Allies')
BTW I would sugest you make the EU Generals from diffrent countrys, IE A General from Britian, A OeberstGeneral from Germany and a General from France. (The big 3 in the EU) So theres some diversity.
anywho, thats all i got to say. Keep on, ROTR Team!
If you read our storyline, as far fetched as it may be, during the 2020's (the mod takes place in the early 2030s) the nations of the world began a massive investment in the African region, taking newly discovered resources there. During this time the nations took large investment to these african nations where they were able to prosper for a whole decade. This is how the balance of each nation has shifted. Check our website or the previous news update for more info on the storyline.
And above all, its just a game.
Russian Army Invades Europe?
Well it was in time to put the pieces of the might Soviet Union back thogheter despite being with force.
The link to the bunker is broken
