It's got some good idea built into it.

The mod is quite fun but models and overall quality is nowhere compared to ROTR or SHW. However some of the units in that games are kick-ass

i must say the overall quality has been greatly improved this time.
balance, however, is still a bitch  but hey, why else would you play this mod...all in all, good fun, tons of features etc. worth a play! -------------------- P |

one thing i really like is the new feature where you can select all aircrafts from a single type from where the usual general powers used to be. its quite handy than calling a grouping number sometimes. Specially with GLA suicide planes.

*Thumbs down* this mod is still crap balance wise you cant have early game artillary its Built for the average nub to win And the balance system Even known they covered some imbalances is still shity
i would recommand this to some one who doesnt care about balance at all... This post has been edited by Zhao: 23 Aug 2009, 2:20 |

I think the idea of this mod is more about creating some bad-ass heavy hitting units than balance. Its good if you play skirmish. Still i know what you mean. But the lack of quality in some units is rather discouraging.

This has always been my opinion on Contra as well. Fun as hell to play since it's so nuts, I'm glad Creator embraced that hence the new General portraits  .

Contra doesn't work for me.
I click to launch it, get the two splash screens and then it goes back and Generals.exe closes down -------------------- |

I don't think ROTR and SHW can co-exist with contra. Now i have uninstalled contra and installed SWR stuff without re-installing ZH and its all fine. Other way round seems to be a problem  .

Well my first attempt at playing Contra violated my ZH install anyways, so I had to reinstall it.
Only played it briefly though. This post has been edited by Pickysaurus: 25 Aug 2009, 3:05 -------------------- |

If you mean graphics wise, it cannot be compared to SWR stuff. But, the fun factor is pretty high. You can enjoy it. Some units are just awesome. Its good if you want to have a laugh and a blast. It offers a different kind of thrill from ROTR and SHW. Worth doing a re-install to try it IMO

Just played the game.
It's pretty fun but there's a lot of things I don't like about it. Games take literally hours. And you have to get General Promotions to unlock half the units/structures. Fairly good quality, but didn't enjoy the gameplay. -------------------- |
