This is the second
expansion pack available for MooMan's Rules. The Assault Expansion
is a Yuri's Revenge only expansion that adds in a brand new game mode to MooMan's
Rules named Assault, a variation of Capture The Flag. The reason why this game
mode is not included in the main mod like the others is that the idea did not originate
from me. CannisRabidus, author of the CannisRules mod and owner of C-GEN has designed the Assault game mode
to be an Expansion Pack that any mod is allowed to use, this expansion enables support for
this game mode in MooMan's Rules.
This expansion only enables the Assault
option in MooMan's Rules, you still need to download the maps for this game
mode. To make it as easy as possible for users, these maps are only found at one location,
the Assault Mappack Homepage another
network site here at C-GEN. You still need to download the map files there and install
them to finally complete the installation of the Assault mappack. For details of what the
Assault game mode does continue reading.
The Assault Expansion adds in
a new game mode now selectable from the Skirmish and Online selection screen. However to
see any maps that you can use, you must download the Mappacks.
Assault: Assault is
a variant of the Capture The Flag mode unofficially seen in the original Red Alert 1.
Because proper Capture The Flag logic cannot be implemented in Yuri's Revenge, this is the
closest we can get to it. Every player will start off with an Assault Flag structure in
addition to their MCV and starting units (if any) and this flag cannot be moved from it's
position at the beginning of the game. When the Assault Flag is destroyed, by friendly or
enemy fire, you are removed from the game. The objective is to destroy your opponents
Assault Flag's while protecting your own. There are three variants of this game mode,
normal Assault, which is just like Battle, Free For All Assault, which is Assault with
Free For All game rules (no allying allowed), and Team Assault, which is Assault with Team
Alliance game rules. Certain maps are only available in certain game modes, details about
that are below. Your Assault Flag is a strong structure, it can take a lot of punishment
before succumbing. Enemy players cannot place C4 charges or capture your Flag, thus
eliminating any quick ways a flag can be destroyed. You can also repair your flag if it as
been damaged.
If you need support on the Assault Expansion,
the MooMan's Corner section on the C-GEN
Forums is available to use. However if you need assistance on the Assault Mappacks
instead go to the Assault Mappacks sub-forum within the CannisRules section. |
