A few years ago my son hooked me on Command & Conquer: Red Alert II. I got to be pretty good at the skirmishes, but never actually tried a campaign; when he moved away, he left me a severely limited version made up from files off of his computer (I think that’s called “bootleg,” isn’t it?)

Anyway, a year ago I bought a new laptop, so for my birthday my son bought me Command and Conquer: The First Decade. It has probably a dozen or more different games on it, including Red Alert: Yuri’s Revenge, the original Red Alert and a bunch of others. I’ve started a campaign, but got stuck at a fairly low level, unable to figure out how to achieve all of the objectives. And I am completely at a loss about playing any of the other games. Is there a C&C community and, if so, how can I access it?

I can’t think of any that won’t turn up on Google, but I’m a C&C nut, so you could put some questions up here and I’ll see if I know?

Excellent! Would it be OK if I use the e-mail listed in your public profile? I promise I won’t inundate you, just an occasional question once in awhile.

I’m also C&C “nut”. A month or so ago I finished Red Alert 2 (with Yuri’s Revenge) for the third time… So if you got any question, feel free to ask.

Certainly, feel free! 🙂

(Any excuse to dig up my own First Decade copy and start playing through the original C&C is a good thing in my book)
