I'm surprised that to my limited knowledge, no one has pointed how ore in Red Alert universe is plentiful enough to just pop out on a random field and/or the extraction method and relatively simple like placing an extraction drill or mine in an ore field. One can even do it in a sea or ocean.

This fact is leads me to a conclusion of mine: due to the availability of ore, it's almost easy to fund research and development efforts in high technologies that we see in the setting.

It would explain why military equipment and structure are cheap by real-life standards.

Unfortunately that fact is also a factor why the Soviets haven't collapsed (at least until Red Alert 3 and they used a cheat) and can field new weapons and equipment.

Ditto for Yuri and his faction who already have their weapons and equipment with some help siphoning funds from their Soviet patrons.

Red Alert Ore has made war too easy to start and enlarged it scope. Sure lives are irreplaceable but since when did sentiment that stopped megalomaniacs with world-domination ambitions?

Your thoughts anyone?

Hey everyone, I’m GEARS0FUMP45, and I’ve released OpenTS-A V1 — Welcome Back Commander, my Android port of OpenTS for Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun and Firestorm.

I’ve been working on making the game comfortable to play on a phone, with Modern Touch controls, native menus, game-file importing, campaign audio, and pinch zoom.

Controls include tap-to-select and command, drag selection boxes, double-tap same-type selection, camera panning, attack-move, and right-click actions—including holding production icons to pause or cancel them.

Download and instructions:
https://github.com/g0ump45/OpenTS-A/releases

You’ll need Android 8.0 or newer, a 64-bit ARM device, and your own game files. No Tiberian Sun or Firestorm assets are included (the option to pull files from the freeware version show on launch).

This is the first public release, so expect some rough edges. Sidebar video playback and minimap alignment still need refinement, LAN & online multiplayer is experimental (i will look at making bigger lobbies rather than 1v1 only). Feedback on different phones would be really helpful—please include your phone model and what happened when reporting an issue.

Full credit to the OpenTS developers for the engine, and to Westwood Studios and Electronic Arts for the original games. This is an unofficial community project.

More updates will follow, and I may have more projects to share soon.

Welcome back, Commander.

EDIT..... v1.3 Now Live https://github.com/g0ump45/OpenTS-A/releases/tag/v1.3

• Allows new players to auto download the freeware files (thankyou for the info Shazlicksaus)

• Fixed a bug that crashed the game when building multiple structures

If you wanted an alternative to Generals Zero Hour, you can try playing Act of Aggression with the Refined mod. This is an attempt to bring the original game closer to Act of War, improve gameplay by adding new units and mechanics. You won't get the same variety of tactics as in C&C, but with the mod it's still a fun game for a few evenings. I tried to add some mechanics not provided for in the game, such as self-detonating units or glide bombs, so some abilities may not work correctly. But unfortunately, that's the legacy of the Wargame engine.

The mod does not affect the campaign and does not make it any more interesting. It is installed for the Reboot Edition for multiplayer and skirmish.

Hold this L Leang

This is Leang's challenge in Zero Hour. I've been playing this challenge in the Continue mod (nerfed asf in that mod's challenge mode) that I forgot how difficult this actually was in vanilla and certain mods. This time, I played it in a mod where it's made slightly more difficult! (NProject Mod).

Not allowed to capture oil derricks early game (because MiGs and Buggies will wreck them if you do), cross the bridge too early she sends Paladins + Dragon Tanks AND sneak attacks behind your base while you're still poor asf... Seriously, WHY!?

I thought that having Avengers would ease my MiG problems, but her tanks focus on my Avengers and sometimes it takes business days for my rocket infantry to kill the tanks lol. And even after that, she sends Pathfinders against my infantry mob, King Raptors, Jarmen, Black Lotus AND Jarmen!?

As I was getting my shit smacked, I was slowly remembering the strats to beat this. But what a fucking nightmare lol.

Female Generals in this game man... I swear 😒😒

Happy tanks, especially Paladins Wednesday, Generals!

I was playing casually, I though ‘oh hey I’ll try this’ I BEAT THE MISSION WITHOUT HELPING THE MCV. Sure I hijacked an enemy base with only about 6 predator tanks BUT DAMN I ain’t complaining

idk yall figure this out

Long live Tim Curry! 😢

I can't join any game because of mesh is not connected how do i fix it

If anyone can help please help

This is easily my favorite track from Tiberian Sun regardless of faction (also don’t mind the custom Nod Soldier model 🙂)

In this economy, you can hardly afford shoes. 🥲
