C&C Generals: Rise of the Reds - Comparing Basic Infantry

Ойындар

Rise of the Reds or ROTR for short is a massive mod for Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour.
The mod adds 2 brand new factions, the frontal breakthrough focused Russian Federation and the defense-oriented European Continental Alliance or ECA for short.
The mod also vastly revamps the original factions, giving them new units, buildings, upgrades, and more!
Other improvements include a focus on army diversity, a new 2-tier tech system, amphibious capabilities, and more!
Today we will be comparing each faction's basic infantry. These soldiers are the backbones of all 5 factions.
We will be covering their training aspects, weapons, abilities, speed, combat, and more!
I plan on doing more of these for other General's Mods and more units from ROTR.
If you have any suggestions, please comment them below.
Thank you for watching!

    Of Course Rangers are the best when faced off against the others (not the most cost efficient nor versatile tho). Despite being their "basic" infantry, Rangers are still special forces. Heck, they even remind the player in one of their quotes saying. "Special forces here" and "Army's elite" when selected.

    Conscripts are worse than rebels. If you think about it this way, it's a bit illogical. Because Russia, as it were, trains them and conducts KMB (Kurs molodogo boyca), and the Rebels are just a peasants who took weapons and, God forbid, know how to use them.

While conscripts are just drafted civilians who doesn't wanna be in the field to begin with while having little training (I mean, you can even see in the model of the GLA barracks, they have like a small training course unlike the Russian or any other faction's barracks), not to mention their weapons are just hand me downs and rusted AK's.

    ECA is a faction that relies on reaching the end game, and has one of the most powerful field powers a commander can have. Venom protocol literally turns ECA into an Infantry Onslaught faction that spams Felins, Panzerfausts, and medics backed up by Venoms, while Jäger sabotages the enemy's base. Manticore Protocol turns ECA into a defensive tank wall faction, bringing out drones that nullify enemy targeting on tanks around it, and the presence of the Manticore tank alone is very terrifying as it is able to tank golem tanks with ease and heal 3000 HP without even its veterancy. Pandora protocol turns ECA into a superweapon general, adding a neutron bomb railgun tank to their arsenal that can easily destroy defenses and lay deadly traps that completely wipes out enemy forces in a single trigger, but not only that, because it also improves some of the ECA general's support powers, changing smokes into nerve gas and the smart bomb even stronger than before.

    The mod is cool, just like the Shockwave mod. But unfortunately the developers really like to stray in that territory of making units unique and flashy. Which gameplay wise just adds unnecessary complexity. As cool as it is, more doesn’t translate to better. The game would benefit more from improvements in unit behavior, like prioritizing different unit types when attacking or automatically using the most effective weapon for the right situations. Of course both mods are still exceptionally well made and add a lot of depth to the game.

    The only way was purchasing the Ultimate Collection thru Origin. EA however is scrapping Origin for its new EA App. It should be on the new EA app but they are in the middle of porting everything over, so it might be incomplete currently. If this is an option, I would recommend looking for a used copy of The First Decade. It has all the C&C's you're looking for without the hassle of dealing with EA's new software.

If the homeless from the GLA may still have these same 47s, then in the Russian army to find the AK of the 47 sample (although actually the 49th year, because the 47 sample did not pass the competition and was sent for revision, which in 49th and finished), you will have to try hard, because they are all on in storage, or sold to neighboring countries (and those have already sold them to some kind of whips themselves, or, again, they have been mothballed).The RA soldiers themselves armed with an AK-74s even since Soviet times. Hell, even on the ROTR Fandom wiki for people like you, it says that Russian conscripts are armed with AK-74! * AK-74*, Karl!
