New features

• Enhanced AI - The computer is smarter than ever! Base construction and management are the smallest of the enhancements. New settings allow the player to set the difficulty of the opponent they want.
• New Units & Structures - Thieves, Medics, Attack Dogs, Spies, Land Mines, Tesla Coils, Mobile Radar Jammers, Saboteurs, Destroyers, Cruisers, Bombers, Paratroopers, and Submarines... to name just a few. We won't even hint at what the Chromosphere and Gap Generators do.
• Improved unit control - Complete control over air, land, and sea. Formations control for those with specific tactics in mind, and waypoint plotting for all those that want units to get to their destination in a certain way.
• Enhanced Multiplay - New Internet head-to-head and 8 Player IPX multiplay. Improved chat interface that allows for longer messages and more transmission of information to the player. New setup options make starting a game even faster.
• Skirmish Mode - Want a little practice? Take on one to five computer opponents in a solo Multi-player game.
• Detailed, interweaving story-line - an Allied and a Soviet path through the game with 13+ missions per path. A large cast of characters, including Stalin and Einstein, brings it all to life, drawing you into the C&C universe.
• Play in standard VGA and Super VGA screen modes with detailed graphics like you have never seen before!
