We are undertaking one of the most ambitious tasks in C&C modding: to recreate and improve upon an original game.
This mod for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 is based directly off the seminal Red Alert's art and gameplay. Not aiming to model realism, the mod instead endeavors to recreate the essence of the original title. The Red Alert will bring the addictive heart-pounding gameplay of this C&C classic to a world-class 3D engine, complete with all the original units, including those from the Aftermath expansion.
In The Red Alert, epic tank battles, MiG attack runs, and Cruiser strikes will be more than just fond memories — they will all return as weapons in your arsenal!
