Aftermath

The second and final Command & Conquer: Red Alert add-on which adds powerful units like Chrono Tanks, Tesla Soldiers, M.A.D. Tanks, and other such marvels into the game, in addition to adding even more missions to this already wonderful game. Can be stack-installed with Counterstrike.

"So, Aftermath is the last Red Alert 1 add-on?"

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.

Command & Conquer

Command & Conquer(sometimes written "Command and Conquer") is a large series of games created by the now-defunct Westwood Studios, the same people who brought you the video game incarnations of Dune and Blade Runner. Command & Conquer is one of the most critically acclaimed real-time strategy games, spawning several a few sequels, prequels, a handful of add-on packs, and various ports to 32-bit and 64-bit video game consoles. You play the part of either the Global Defense Inititive(GDI) or theBrotherhood of Nod(Nod) in your mission of taking control of the world through force. You build your bases and rally your forces, then promptly obliterate the opposing side as brutally as you can, leaving no survivors. It's basically a futuristic war game, in the most rudimentary definition.

Abbreviations: CnC, C&C

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn, the Covert Operations, and Sole Survivor
