First RA3 Featured Map Added

[Sonic 301]

Our first Red Alert 3 featured map has been added to our files section. Featured maps are special maps that deserve their own section. Only the very best maps make it into this section. Here are the details for this new map.

Fight For Survival by Marc Rothmann

This map is a 2 player skirmish map. There is lots of money up for grabs. Each player starts with 3 Ore Nodes and a single Oil Rig. There are then two Ore expansions each to take. There are two set of islands just off the two main islands which are strategic points on the map with an observation tower and another oil rig. These two little islands are the only way to get to the 3 Oil Rigs in the middle of the map. The 3 Oil Rigs in the middle of the map and the two observation towers are indestructible, forcing you to fight to defend your strategic points instead of just destroying them. This map is intended to be a high fuelled octane match with lots of money up for grabs and 3 strategic points on the map which needs to be held if you intend to win.

You can get the full details, map preview and of course the download link by clicking on the map names above. Don't know how to install these maps? Follow this quick guide that has the instructions you need, the same instructions can also be found at the to Red Alert 3 maps download pages.

 

If your interested in getting your own maps hosted in our Red Alert 3 maps section we have provided a simple and easy to use file uploader so you can send us your Red Alert 3 maps. Once we receive them they will be checked and then added to our files section. However it is up to you to make sure the Red Alert 3 map .zip file includes a readme.txt file that has all the info about your map, who made it, a description of the map and other important details. We have a template file that you can use for this, download it here. The .tga and *_art.tga images must be included. These files generate the minimaps in the game. A guide to creating these minimap images can be found here in our Red Alert 3 Mod & Map Making forum. The upload page can be found right here.

Why no map preview in the news post?

Anyway - I like the idea of indestructible derricks and observation towers.
