Good point Marc, why should you be able to hit E on RA and select 100 units
to go and attack someone.  It's stupid, instead of just using brute force
in RA you have to  use strategy in W2.  

What about the fact that you cannot save multiplayer games in RA anyway.  I
know, I shouldn't be cheap and should go out and buy Counterstrike.  The
point is I shouldn't have to spend more money to get one feature of a game
that should be included.  

The other point is that if you play the Russians in Red Alert you can beat
almost any foe.  Don't try to argue this point the Russian are far
superior.  With the new counterstrike addition I hear they are even more
superior.  I like both games, but my opinion is that W2 was better thought
out by the developers.
