C&C Generals: Zero Hour

Why havent this game ever been brought up? Its a bit old now but still the best strategy game ive played so far.

You can choose between armies in this expansion, each army ie China, USA and GLA has 3 generals all specialized in their area.

CHINA:
Nuke general, everythings about nukes with this guy, tactical migs can blow any unit to hell. helix recieve nuke drop, advanced powerplants.

Infantry general. maybe the best one, minigunners to shoot down all aircrafts. hacker hack faster, super lotus can capture an enemy building in notime. Then theres attack outposts that can hold 10 units that just kicks ass. Helix comes upgraded with bunkers allowing you to load them up tankhunters.

Tank General. Every tank gets promoted to veteran, has even emperors that are an uppgrade from normal overlords, come with a speaker when built with the usuall gattling addon.
Can uppgrade fireing speed on a battlemaster making it the best tank. Cant saddly not use nukecanons.

GLA

Toxin: You name it, everything evelves around toxins. Toxin general can get Anthrax Gamma, every tunnel comes with a toxin tower(?), all missiles fire toxin rounds and every rebel is now a toxin rebel.

Demo: My favourite army. You can uppgrade demolitions on every unit and suicde, one demo bike can blow up an entire army. With rebels uppgraded with demolitions you can get any building.

Stealth: everything get cloaked, you can cloak any building and stingersites and tunnels become auto invicable. only setback is they cant make scorpions.

USA

Laser: Advanced coldfusion reactors, laser tanks, laser turrets, additional damage to the laser sw.

Superweapon general. best unit in the game is the aurora alpha held by the swgen. It fires a small oilbomb wich blows any unit off the map, maybe thats why swgens are banned on most games. All sws are cheaper and u get emp turrets.

Airforce: Really good general, you can cloak your choppers flying over enemy defences un noticed, every aircraft has defensive turrets meaning they deflect missiles. Free carpet bomb when strategy center is up and you get combat chinooks.
 
I think it's a great game too Snake, but when I first played it I had played the original C&C Generals for a few years, got tired of the game extremely fast!
 
The originall Generals is really boring, you have 3 armies to choose from all of them boring, in the expansion you can choose from 9+ its added with all sorts new bonuses.
 
Yeah but they're not THAT different. By the way, I'm stuck in a USA mission (can't remember the number) where you have to blow up a GLA radio station. I always get pwned by their SCUD storm. Help?

Yeah, I know!

But that didn't stop me from getting bored of zero hour!
 
Hehe... what would you know, eh? I actually have that game. Yes, I do. Original package, receipt, mint condition, smells like new too.

Anyone want it? :P
 
Well, if you are going to give it away, I'd take it. I'll gladly give the game a chance if I don't have to bother with paying for it. Though, I don't care about the receipt, or what it smells like (as long as it doesn't smell offensive).

In the habit of smelling you games Alec? What does a new game smell like anyway?
