About Command & Conquer™ Red Alert™ 3

Steam Workshop. Steam workshop support for User Maps. . . About the Game. The desperate leadership of a doomed Soviet Union travels back in time to change history and restore the glory of Mother Russia.

The Empire of the Rising Sun has risen in the East, making World War III a three-way struggle between the Soviets, the Allies, and the Empire with armies fielding wacky and wonderful weapons and technologies like Tesla coils, heavily armed War Blimps, teleportation, armored bears, intelligent dolphins, floating island fortresses, and transforming tanks. Star-Studded Storytelling– Command & Conquer's trademark live-action videos return in HD, with over 60 minutes of footage featuring the largest cast in the history of the Command & Conquer franchise. .

Game is advertised on the store front as if you can buy it as a single game

Game is advertised on the store front as if you can buy it as a single game. They force and funnel you into buying this in a bundle with all the other games. I bought this before they forced the bundle. I don't recommend buying anymore of their games due to the deceptive advertising they have done.

Easy recommendation

Red Alert 3 is a very serious military strategy game about time travel, alternate history, naval warfare and global domination. The Soviet Union has time machines. The Allies have advanced technology. Japan has giant robots. Somehow the most dangerous weapon on the battlefield is still my inability to manage my economy. The game is ridiculous in exactly the right way. Every faction has completely unreasonable weapons, units and strategies, yet everything somehow works together well enough to make the chaos genuinely fun. You can build a perfectly respectable military force, carefully position your units and prepare a coordinated attack. Or you can build 40 tanks and send them directly into the enemy base. Both are valid strategies. The naval combat is also surprisingly good. Apparently the solution to every strategic problem is to put more military equipment in the water. And then there is the Empire of the Rising Sun, which looked at conventional warfare and decided that giant transforming robots were probably more efficient. Honestly, difficult to argue with the results. The campaign is campy, the cutscenes are absurd, the technology makes no historical sense and the entire world is constantly one bad decision away from another timeline-ending disaster. Basically, exactly what a Red Alert game should be. 10/10. Would accidentally alter the timeline again.

Still thinking about it

Peak. Also, you get Tim Curry, Jonathan Pryce, J.K. Simmons, George Takei, Peter Stormare, and Gina Carano all interacting with literal playboy models. I remember the actual game having an annoying amount of micromanagement since every unit had their special thing.
