Crews are actively engaged from the ground and air when and where safe. As the fire continues to make upslope runs, torching and spotting will be observed in the Strawberry Creek drainage. Low humidity levels and gusty winds persisted throughout the evening, making it another active night for crews working in the wind-impacted areas. The fire is currently 220,877 acres in size, with 76% containment. They can certainly win a game for you, but it's also possible to rally after a superweapon attack and take the fight to your enemy.ACTUALIZACION DEL INCIDENTE DE INCENDIO DE CALDOR: SEPTIEMBRE 21,2021ĬURRENT SITUATION: The Caldor Fire started at approximately 6:45PM on August 14, 2021. I was surprised that the superweapons were so well balanced. Additionally, the shroud is removed from around the superweapons so all players can have a chance to take them out. In the interests of balance, all players are automatically alerted when one of these structures is built and are given a countdown to let them know when the device will come online. The Soviets have a Nuclear Missile that can erase large sections of your base in an instant as well as an Iron Curtain device that can render vehicles and structures invulnerable for a short time. It permits you to shift units (yours or your enemies) from one area of the battlefield to another instantaneously. The Chronosphere is a little more sophisticated than the Weather Controller is. Simply pick a target, sit back and watch the clouds roll in. The Allies have access to a Weather Control Device that rains (literally) thunderous destruction on your enemies. The game also comes with numerous special weapons of a suitably fantastic nature. Aegis Cruisers provide a convenient air defense while the undetectable Dolphins protect against Soviet Squids. Destroyers must accompany the Carriers to defend them from Sub attacks.
The Allies can produce Carriers that are very slow but can launch repeated attacks against distant enemy installations. Let's just take the sea units for example. And better than not having any of the units be totally worthless, the folks at Westwood have gone out of their way to make sure that each of the units has a particular role to play in your overall strategy. The units in RA2 are an amazing mix of land, sea and air forces. And when you've got three separate theaters in which to operate, unit balance becomes that much more difficult.
One of the most rewarding and hardest to quantify factors of RA2 is unit balance. While it does add a few impressive gimmicks (garrisoning units in buildings and tech structures to name two), Red Alert 2 stands out because it's completely familiar to us while still being fresh. A large part of the success of Red Alert 2 comes from its smooth control system, comfortable menus and intuitive balancing. Granted, it's a formula but it's a formula because it works and only Starcraft and Age of Empires have done it as well. The game is still about harvesting resources to build structures to buy units, but what seems tired and worn-out in other games is inspired in this game. But what Red Alert 2 is, is one of the finest explorations of what can be done without taking the genre beyond its present limitations. This is not the 'next big thing' in strategy games and it certainly won't have the impact on the genre that early Westwood titles did. Having said that I should caution you that Red Alert 2 does not offer the same kind of revolution in basic game design that so many of us expected of Westwood's last sequel, Tiberian Sun.
There's an amazing depth to the tactics of the game, a good range of missions in the single player campaign and a kind of slightly ridiculous aspect to the story that lets you now that the game is supposed to be fun. Red Alert 2 is one of the most polished, best-conceived, and downright enjoyable real-time strategy games in recent memory.
