    Actually, the exact quote is "The napalm bomb is ready. Heh heh heh..."

    *is such a geek for remembering such things*

    Personally, other than the obvious Superpower General (EMP Towers + 30p power generators ftw), my favorite General is Infantry. Those minigunners can tear up aircraft, AND you get eight free when you buy a battle bus (which includes gunports).

    Hee, no, I was playing the Nuke General, so the Helix gets tactical nukes. My favourite commanders are the Tank General, the Stealth General and the Air Force General.

    But Imma go create a thread about Zero Hour now.

    Eh, I don't really play the Nuke General all that much. I do, however, enjoy the Tank General, especially the Emperor Overlords. Sadly, it doesn't have the Battle Bunker, which I find an absolute essential for 360o defense arc of the Overlord (Jarmen Kell or pathfinder + four RPG troops).
    Mostly, I just stick to just the Superweapon General. Virtually no group troops worth their salt, but a whole wing of Aurora Alphas can destroy almost anything in one fly-by.

    The most enjoyable thing about C&C Generals I found was the mods (Middle East Crisis, various extension to C&C Generals, all sorts of things)

    However Im still jumping for excitment abour RA3, I just hope they muck this up, if they make a worthy succesor I shall forgive them for murdering Westwood (I still play the Westwood games: RA2, TS and the like)

    Looking at Martoks quote, they found a good excuse for making everything different (IE:The Collasped Soviet Union, is going to go back in time) Supposedly the 3rd faction is the japanese (A better name would be the Imperials or something) of course,

    Wait -- you *want* them to screw this up? Why? I mean, it's not like we need an excuse to hate EA more than we already do. So long as RA3 is fun & enjoyable, I don't particularly care who makes it.

    They're calling the 3rd faction the Empire of the Rising Sun. I'm looking forward to playing around with their naval units.

    Doubtful. Blizzard's idea of a huge army is a dozen units and some over powered, and superflous, hero. EALA on a bad day is twice the RTS developer that Blizzard is.

    Oh dear a typo... I wasn't saying if they do if they muck this I shall forgive them, I said if do it well I shall forgive them..., my ability to write a sentance without having to edit later for mistakes is decreasing
