Command and Conquer

Command and Conquer: The First Decade allows you to play nearly all the games in this vaunted RTS franchise. With over 23 million units sold worldwide to date, the C&C franchise has defined the Real-time strategy (RTS) genre with cutting-edge visuals, epic storylines, and rich mission complexities. The series has evolved over a decade, spawned over a dozen titles, and continues to be the genre benchmark by which all RTS games are measured. With its explosive style of warfare, the C&C franchise has grown over the years to span multiple fictional genres, including the science fiction Tiberium universe, the revisionist history of the Red Alert universe, and a twist on modern warfare with Command & Conquer Generals.

Comment: Command & Conquer Generals is developed by “EA game sports”. The best strategy games that i ever played. U start with command center and one building unit, your goal is to defeat all enemies on map. In Command & Conquer there are many games but i will be focused on Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour, because that is my favorite strategy game

In this game there are 3 nations for playing; USA, China and GLA (Global Liberation Army) and each of them have special weapons and tactics. In Command & Conquer Generals Zero Hour, every nation gets 3 more Generals with improved units. Every nation has their own unique super weapon and special infantry units so called Heroes of nation. By playing game you are getting higher rank and unlocking stronger firepower. Units and building can be upgraded in specific buildings. Every type of building produces one type of units. On barracks they are infantry, on War factory tanks and on Airfields plains. To create building or units i need income, main and only vault in this game is dollar. U can get more dollars by building supply center. Every nation have 1 more addition way of income. U can also capture additional neutral buildings for additional firepower or income.
Unites are divided by ability to shoot infantry, tanks, airplanes and damage from long range and stealth detection units, every nation have different units and all units are getting ranks during combat

USA: USA have really strong air force, base defense and it have larges promotion power of all. With each star for promotion you get better units or stronger bombs (stealth plains, unit drop, snipers …). Strongest unit that u can get on rank 5 is fuel bomb that can be upgraded to MOBA (plain that drop high explosive bomb with huge dmg). Their super weapon is Particle cannon, strong laser beam that is fired for several seconds, fries all on its way and can be controlled. Colonel Burton (popular called Rambo) is their special unit, he is stealthy, can climb over hills, have minigun and can destroy buildings or units by planting explosives.
Construction Dozer is used to create or repair buildings. Additional money income is get by Supply Drop Zones.
Strategy center is main building for upgrading units, it also have 3 stance, bombardment: all units get more firepower, search and destroy: all units have extra range and hold the line: all units gets extra defense. Base defense are Patriot Missile Turrets and Fire base (long range cannon that can hold up to 4 ppl)
USA use Cold fusion reactor to supply army with electricity which can be upgraded.
USA have in addition to basic army have 3 more. USA Air force, USA Super weapon and USA Laser.

USA Air force: Their tactic for destroying enemies is advanced aircrafts. They have strongest plains and gunships in game. By building Strategy center u get access to carpet bomber strong plain that drops line of bombs. Advantages for this army are “Carpet bomber”, airplanes “Aurora” and “King Rapidor”. All plains cost less and have best upgrade for airplanes and gunships , but this general have lack of tanks in his war factory.

USA Super weapon: This army have rly strong defense and her tactic to destroy enemies are super weapons. Base defense Patriot Missile Turrets are equipped with EMP missile that temporary disable vehicles, also can destroy all aircrafts with one shot. Particle Cannon cost less and it does more damage and last a bit longer. Advantages for this army are Strong defense, high power with super weapon, Aurora bomber have mini fuel bomb for this damage and Cold fusion reactor produce much more power when upgraded. But this Army also have lack of tanks, but frankly they don’t need it .

USA Laser: This Army use Lasers as main offensive or defensive tool. Patriot missile turrets are replaced with high damage Laser turret. Tanks also don’t use laser for combat. Advantages: Strongest defense in game that can shoot infantry tanks and airplanes. Particle canon do more dmg, Cold fusion reactor provide more power, laser defense on plain and tanks, bad thing that u tanks runs on power so u need a lots of rectors.

CHINA: China use large number of units to defeat enemies. Nuclear Power Plant is used to provide electricity which can be overload for more power but it will get damage overtime. China’s super weapon is Nuclear Missile, large bomb that do massive damage and leave radiation on place of impact for some time. Best promotion on rank 5 are EPM bomber and artillery. China’s special unit is Black Lotus, she doesn’t have any damaging tools but she can hack into enemy building and units to disable it, or to steal money from enemy, she is also stealted. Main building for upgrades are propaganda center, there is also Propaganda center who can be used to defend hacker who are addition money income for this army. Defend structures are Gatling Cannon for infantry and protective bunker that can hold tank infantry units for defense. This unit also use dozers to construct base.
China have in addition to basic army have 3 more. China Tank, China Infantry and China nuke.

China tank: This army has strongest tanks in game and that it use to defeat enemies.
Advantages: rly strong tank Overlord, tanks cost less and they are stronger and produce faster

China Infantry: This army use infantry as advantage. All infantry is lower cost, there are stronger and unlike rest all can shoot ground and airborne units.
Advantage: High amount of damage from infantry, stronger bunkers, infantry can shoot plains, Black Lotus is starting with rank 1 and she can hack faster, hackers provide more money.

China Nuke: This army using nuclear power to bring destruction.
Advantage: Nuclear rectors give more power, tank leave nucler radiation and nuke canons does more damage, Nuclear missile does more damage and cost less, airplanes drops mini nukes instead missiles.

GLA (Global Liberation Army) in this game they are present as terorists, they main tools for destruction are surprise attacks, toxic weapons, stealth explosives, bombs and tunnels that can transfer units across map in a seconds. Their super weapon is S.C.U.D storm, large amount of missiles that on impact leave toxic leftovers. Workers are use to build base. This army don’t use electivity cause they don’t need power supply. Best tool from general promotion is Sneak attack (tunnel that can be placed anyhwere on map), Rebel ambush and Anthrax bomb. Jarmen Kell is GLA’s special units, stealth snipers that can shoot on enemy vehicle driver and some of infantry units can capture it as own. Cash bounty is additional way for provide money. Defensive structure are Stinger Site and Network tunnel.
GLA have 3 additional armies: GLA Toxin, GLA Demolition and GLA Stealth

GLA Toxin: Use anthrax and poisons as main dmg to defeat enemies.
Advantages: Toxic bombs and any units with toxin are stronger S.C.U.D storm leave stronger toxin that last longer after impact, network tunnel become toxin tunnel that fire toxic instead of bullets. Rebel are also shooting toxin not bullets, they don’t have stealth ability

GLA demolition: Use high explosives and bombs to defeat enemies.
Advantage: Units and bombs does more damage, S.C.U.D storm also do a lot more of damage,
Jarmen Kell can place bombs, every units can suicide and deal damage on death

GLA stealth: Use invisibility as advantage to defeat enemies.
Advantage: U can make every units stealth, u can hide entire base from sight, surprise attacks, u can disable enemy building and steal vehicles. My favorite army.

This game has several modes. Skirmish, when u fights with or VS friends or computer, missions for every Nation and Challenge, where u go and fight VS fully builded base enemies and try to defeat them

Graphic is solid but whoever wana good strategy game i recommended this one

Comment: Command and Conquer
This is an EA Game Sport which was released last 2008. This is the first Command and Conquer so the it is not yet have improvements unlike the new generals at present that it add more but this Command and Conquer is the bases of all new version of Command and Conquer. This is a real time strategy game that you really need to play wise to win the game.
First, you will choose which nation you will use in the game. These are USA, China, and GLA. It can be multiplayer or single player. At first, you have given a construction yard for your building and also as your own base. Train workers to build building and gather resources so that you can produce units.
Infantry:
There are different kinds of infantry that can be produced from the barracks or from you town center. You can train workers only in the town center and you can train different armed infantry in barracks. It can be anti-infantry, anti-tank, or anti-air units. There are special units that can be produced in every nation. In USA, you can train Colonel Burton which have different skills in killing enemies and destroying buildings. You can train Lotus in China for the capture of units and buildings and the Sniper in GLA to snipe the infantry and the driver of tanks.
Tanks:
Every nation also have different kinds of tanks. It may be anti-infantry tanks, anti-tank tanks, and anti-air tanks. You can produce it in war factory. Only the GLA cannot produce air units but they have more different kind of tanks unlike with the USA that they have only four tanks to be produced. Tanks are very useful in game because it is the greatest factor to defeat the opponent,. You can train as many tanks as you can.
Buildings:
There are many different kinds of buildings. It may be economical building for the gathering of resources, defensive building for the defensive purpose only, the building that you can train units for your defense and offense, and the most powerful of all is the super weapon. You can build Particle Canon for USA, Nuclear Missile for China and Scud Storm for GLA. Buildings are also obviously important in the game but you should know how to build wisely. Super weapons is the most powerful in the game for they can cause greatest damage to the opponent.
Upgrades:
You can upgrade your buildings, units, and other for the stronger units in offence and defense and can also be in fast resources gathering. You can see it in the buildings you built. For USA is the Strategy Center, In china is the Propaganda Center, and Palace for the GLA. The stronger the units, the more possibility to win the game.
This is really a good game for everyone for they can know the strategy of the game. They develop the technique in their selves. It is really fun in playing this game especially when in multiplayer mode. Enjoy playing this game.

  5. C&C were one of the earliest that made the RTS franchise boom, together with Warcraft and Starcraft, Red alert were one of the first few RTS ive played. This game really hold up. Tiberian sun has made its way to FPS as well due to how much the story is well written. I played Generals on and off cause it tends to be easily beaten duecto imbalance exploits.

    5/5

  6. C&C: The First Decade is pretty good. It’s pretty much a compilation of C&C games from 1995 to 2003, so you’re going to have plenty of gameplay which is really nice; just know that it doesn’t include later C&C games like C&C3: Tiberium Wars to C&C4: Tiberian Twilight. Personally, I think C&C: The Ultimate Collection is a better value, because that one includes 17 games (far more than C&C: The First Decade), all for the price of just $20 which isn’t so bad. So if you had to choose a C&C game, I’d seriously skip C&C: The First Decade and just get C&C: The Ultimate Collection.

    Overall, I’d rate C&C: The First Decade a 4.5/5; I’d probably rate it higher, if C&C: The Ultimate Collection didn’t exist.
