always glad to help.....
and more to come if you want some ideas on multplayer....good idea to get
more experience, i played single player for almost two years before
multiplayer, and still can only make major.....
as i and others mentioned, there is an expansion disk to C&C original
called Covert Ops...
and there are actually two maps of the save Dr Mobius from the base with
the airlift, SCG12ea and eb...i found the maps and strategies very
different one to the other..one was patience and stealth, the other was
build a force and "Go for Broke" (slogan for WWII GI division made up of
Japanese Americans (aka BuddaHeads) who won fame in the Italian Campaign
for rescuing a Texas unit trapped behind German lines, they even made a
movie out of it! )...anyway, one starts in the southeast, and the other in
the south west...
