Tiberian Twilight

The fan-made name for the third installment in the Command & Conquer series of games which will never see the light of day.

I find it unfair that Tiberian Twilight will never be a reality. Thanks a lot, EA Games!!

Red Alert 2

The shortened version of Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2. This is the second game in the Red Alert universe, taking place years after the first conflict with the Axis and Allies. New technology has since been invented, thus making both sides far more formitable than before.

Abbreviation: RA2

Man, those Chrono Miner trucks are the coolest unit in Red Alert 2!

Sole Survivor

A spin-off of Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn. You play the role of a single soldier in your quest to defeat all the other soliders in the vicinity, picking up upgrades and vehicles along the way.

Abbreviation: SS

I was playing Sole Survivor last night and some Nod punk Chem Sprayed me to death. I was so mad!

Tiberian Dawn

The first in the Command & Conquer series of games. Sometimes written Tiberium Dawn for whatever reason. Prequel of Tiberian Sun.

Tiberian Dawn was the start of a good series of games, but Tiberian Sun was the game to TRULY Rock the Casbah!

Counterstrike

Counterstrike is the first add-on pack for Command & Conquer: Red Alert. It adds new units to Red Alert such as Wonderdogs and Super Jets, as well as giving players new missions and unlocking the secret of the Ant Missions hinted at in the original Red Alert manual.

No, not Counter-Strike, the wildly-popular Half-Life modification. Counterstrike. For Red Alert.

Firestorm

The add-on pack for Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun. This add-on adds new units, new missions, and new features to the already great game of Tiberian Sun, such as the GDI Mobile EMP Cannon and the Nod Reaper.

Firestorm is a great addition to Tiberian Sun with its new units and new missions!
