C&C95 DOS did support multiplayer but only on a modem connection. You had to setup the net through DOS configurations in most cases and in the game had to know which slot the modem was plugged into along with what speed modem type you had. It was a little on the complex side if you didn't know much...

Very thoughtful post. Thanks for sharing the info on the early days of C&C as I was an example of first being exposed to C&C series via Red Alert 1 (at age 7). It wasn't until after getting hooked to RA that my brother and I discovered the C&C gold pack with Covert Operations, so I didn't realize t...

Red Alert was the breakout multiplayer game in the C&C series - I believe that when Tiberian Dawn (then just called Command & Conquer) was first released in 1995, there was only support for LAN multiplayer. Online mutliplayer was included in the 'Gold' release in 1997, whereas RA included it right f...

FWIW I also would have voted in the contest if my acc. was eligible.

I'd also tend to agree that keeping the entries anonymous would be preferable.

Cheers Pizza - cool to hear as your maps are always great :D I'll edit the road on Tropic Expanse, maybe tomorrow. I actually tried to create this map with a 'good enough', somewhat asymmetric approach rather than be more precise which is what I'm usually tempted to do, but this change seems reasona...

I've also had a go at creating a couple of FFA maps:

Tropic Expanse, a big 4P map

Hattrix, a smaller 3P map

It would be nice to see some RA map features available in the TD editor. That 5P looks cool, Pizza :)

//ANTRAX// - fdc109dcf740d607ddd92aaa1f394195287b312c My goodness, the title of this: erntepflegeangriffsbereitschaftskompromiss I can't decide if it's wonderfully ludicrous or just ludicrous. Something about the silliness of it is appealing. Google translate from German calls it: Crop protection at...

Hope you stick around and give it another crack Henry. I can get put off sometimes as well, but it's not all bad out there. :)

I'd agree that Dave's list of maps here is preferable to Luna's selection and I'd rather see this bunch of maps appear in the next release. It's definitely good to see the discussion move here from GitHub. In absolute honesty, I had several issues with Luna's picks but didn't want to say anything mu...

Well, for whatever my input is worth I think the above heli looks great and fits just fine with the established RA graphical style.. It'd be cool to see it appear in the release version to replace the Hind :)
