Rise of the Reds – or ROTR for short – improves upon the C&C Generals formula while also adding its own distinct elements to it. Most notably, the mod adds two completely new factions, the tank-heavy Russian Federation and the defence-oriented European Continental Alliance. In addition, the three original factions China, USA and GLA have been greatly expanded and redesigned in a variety of ways, with several new units, buildings, powers and abilities to explore and combine in your in-game tactics.
Nobody expects the GLA airforce !
This upcoming Saturday, Maelstrom will host a new stream of the internal build, showcasing the new additions to the mod.
Countdown to the stream: Rb.gy

Damn, why them airfields look so different? 🤔
prolly took steroids, now it looks chonk
Hope this time HopperTube would be shown properly.
Yet i wonder does new GLA airfield take more space than airstrip used to?
nope its exactly the same footprint, it just looks bigger
Did you guys added drop bombs on the Hook?
very nice new buildings as fitting for best faction, but i am curious as to why its decided to split the old airfield to the Russian style helipad+Airstrip? is it also to allow GLA have helicopter without needed to spend a GenPoint? or are airstrips limited to build but not helipads?
No, it's simply because we reworked the entire GLA Airforce GP logic:
- Rank 1 unlocks Helipad, Plague Dusters and Hook
- Rank 2 unlocks Airstrip, Hyena and Vulture
- Rank 3 unlocks Overwatch and Helipad Interception Tower (passive income)
So it made more sense to have separated structures
thank you for the explanation
quite foreboding for the mighty Hook to be unlocked so early now
oh that's NICE! GLA Heliports and now Airfields, its now separated and now you can bring your own air force to bear!
i don't recognize those planes, are those new?
Those are Vulture bombers
Make GLA Air Force Great Again!
Any chance to add Salvage drop? As a low GP maybe
Will we see on the stream a new installation of ballistic missiles for Europe using the Pandora protocol? Are there any details about her?
The Prometheus has already been showcased a few months ago. On today's stream we could see it quickly, but not much.
