This is the second addition in what we hope to be a long series of mappacks 
for Red Alert by Westwood Studios.  We think the game has met, and sometimes
exceeded all of our expectations, yet there is a lack of QUALITY maps
out there to play your multiplayer games on.

This mappack is a sincere effort to rid you of that problem.

There are other mappacks out there, some with more maps. However, this one
is better.  Why? Because we  
RATE maps on several qualities for you.
REFUSE to include garbage in the pack, and
we Work daily on this project to ensure that 
there will be timely releases of NEW maps,
hopefully before you have a chance to learn 
all the layouts!

This release includes many maps, but there is room for growth!  The maps
that have been included are a compilation of  those floating around all 
over the net, yet we chose only these to include.  
So, without further delay, let's get on to the maps and their ratings for 
this edition of the pack!

KEY TO THE MAP RATING SYSTEM:

[MAP]      Map Name: This should be self evident, unless you are from Nebraska.   
[TERR]     Terrain:  Is this map Winter or Temperate Theater?
[PLYRS]   Players:  the number of players that can play this map without TOO many problems
[ORE]       Ore:  The TOTAL amount of ore and jewels present, in credit form.
[CHK]       Choke Points: The frequency and quality of choke points throughout the entire
	    map.  This INCLUDES water choke points.  Rated on a 0-9 scale, with 0 being 
	    horrendous, and 9 being most excellent!
[BASES]   Bases:  The size and quality (as well as defense ability) of the areas denoted for
                  base building.  This is a VERY important quality in a map.  Also rated on a 0-9 scale.
[LND]       Land Connected:  is all land on the map connected (value is "YES", or are parts of the map 
                  unreachable without transport helicopter or boat (value is "NO")?
[WATER]  Water:  is there a good amount of water on the map?  Is there room for some nasty 
                  Naval Battles?  Rated on the 0-9 scale listed above.
[CFD]        Clear From Defects:  Is the map clear from visual defects?  In other words, did the map
                  author take the time to fix all the little "bugs" in the map.
[ADVT]     Advantage:  is an advantage given to any particular side? If so, which one?
[LAD]        Ladder Quality:  on a 0-9 scale again, how well is this map suited for Ladder Style 
                  competitions?  
[OVER]     Overall Rating:  another 0-9 Scale.  This explains itself, unless, again, you are a Cornhusker Fan.  
	    This rating includes such things as creativity and overall play-ability.

LEASE NOTE:  There have been some problems talked about on the net regarding strange incompatibility bugs with Red Alert maps and some computers.  If you happen to get an error reading "incompatible scenario file detected" it is only because the map was made with a different editor, and may have some non-standard Tiles.  This SHOULD NOT HAPPEN, however, on most machines.  The error really means nothing, and the map will play perfectly.  So there!

If you enjoy this mappack, please let us know by sending some Email.  We would love to hear from you, and we are always accepting NEW maps to go in the Mappack.  Please send all correspondence to  silent@themall.net or to andy@tab.com. 

Lastly, you may notice that there are a FEW maps that remain unrated as of yet.  These are maps that we have not had a chance to really scrutinize, so we ask you, the player, to rate them for us.  Send in your ratings for any maps you find in the pack that  are not yet rated, and we will include them in mappack 2.0.  Thanks!
