Yep, some of us have been blowing up huge arsenals of weaponry in Command and Conquer. Not much to post and I don't think we should encourage too much as some games have lasted over THREE HOURS but hey it makes a change.

Map packs currently being played are ....

Generals
Generals Zero Hour
Shockwave mod - Zero Hour
Rise of the Reds BETA - Zero Hour.

Game costs less than a tenner.....

don't worry, it's a level playing field, nobody's guaranteed a win when there's more than 2 people playing.
I guess it depends on who attacks who first. If I happen to start off beside dan, we usually end up scrapping after the first few minutes, while we're kept occupied, steve could be amassing a huge army of strange looking tanks that can totally devastate your base defenses within seconds and leave a gaping hole through which he would send 30 or 40 'copters that would finish you off within 2 minutes.
in another scenario it would be Dan with his army of stealthed copters, mad with his collection of devasting infantry units or sending armies behind your base with tunnel networks, or maybe it could be me with my nukes, carpet bombs and earthquakes Smile

in any case, the more the merrier

Embarassed Don't forget, you can ask 'MAD site admin' about playing online through the VPN along with sosteve, dan the man, SWAT, MAD and of course, me the WEAK LINK Confused

Oh, that's if you don't have a life and can suffer 3 hours without a pea.

CU there.
