Command & Conquer Generals allows you to choose a powerful
General and control massive armies across a globe teetering on the
brink of Armageddon. Command one of three unique sides, each with
customisable high-tech arsenals of military weaponry ready to deliver
unprecedented firepower on land or in the skies. Annihilate the
opposition in the 27-mission single-player campaign or dish out
the damage in global multiplayer mayhem.
Select one of nine Generals, each with special strengths and a
unique vehicle unit. Direct the NATO Tank General to smother the
opposition with raw power or let loose the Chinese Secret Police
General to spot and capture hidden enemies.
You'll also command one of three unique armies inspired by real
world ideologies: the high-tech US force, the swarming Chinese war
machine, or the resourceful Global Liberation Army.
The game will feature modern and near-future military weaponry
on the cutting-edge of technology, allowing players to wage real
time war in more ways than ever before, with thrilling mid-air battles,
urban combat, and an enhanced veterancy model.
The state-of-the-art SAGE Engine generates unprecedented detail
as you battle it out in full 3D on urban cityscapes, rugged deserts
and frozen wastelands.
All-new units and tactics include top secret Aurora Strike Fighters,
massive Crusader Battle Tanks, Angry Mobs, skilled Hackers and over
60 other distinct units. You will be able to rain down death from
above with exclusive super weapons like the US 'Daisy Cutter' Bomb,
the Chinese Nuclear Missile, or the GLA Scud Storm.
Command & Conquer Generals will also feature multiplayer functionality,
allowing players to wreak havoc online, either cooperatively with
a friend or going head to head in all-out global domination with
a multitude of other players.
