Merge Carno's RA 1.5?, An idea for a theme change Options

[Team Black]

Read this topic first

i've been looking into alternatives for the over-cliche CNC3 mod theme - everybody's making mods following the same idea, and it's becoming pretty boring, nothing very special at all...
I know RA 1.5 doesn't have much to boast at this point, but it's something we can work off of.

if we do merge these projects, Carnotauros won't be moderating it (but will still have equal rights as everyone to voice their ideas).

My idea is that it doesn't follow any strict canon of the CNC story, whether or not RA is connected to Tiberim and what-not. . .
it's become too difficult and frustrating to try and link everything together. So why bother? What we're aiming for is gameplay, and for that we're combining elements from both RA1 and RA2 (as much as is possible in the TS engine.
Now, we're not going to be afraid to color outside the lines a little with the story. We've all pretty much agreed that CNC's story is ruined forever, and there's little sense to try and connect everything at this point since EA took it into their own hands. The word of Ishmael isn't the word of God, people, and it's really being a bugger keeping up with "What would Westwood do?" and all that.
The truth is, we'll never know. So stop looking. CNC is whatever you want it to be, so let's just break out of the box and do something original with it.

Or you can vote "no" and stick with the same cliche boring mod that every other mod is based on. Quite honestly we wouldn't be abandoning any of our previous work, because there's little actual work that we've done for this mod, except for TSN's logo - which can pretty easily pass for a soviet dude anyways if we wanted it to.

Gimme some input OK

I don't know what's going on, but it seems like my post and I believe also Lightstorm's got merged with Ixith's... I removed the posts that were merged with Ixith's from his post, so here they are again.

as for the idea of Scrin vs Martians or something of that like....sure why not. We need something that is completely different from other TS mods that expand the normal storyline. So how about during the same time that GDI and Nod are fighting, the Scrin is making its way towards Earth and fighting another faction.
just an idea o' course.

Actually the war between the Scrin and the Martians would have to occur like millennia's before C&C...

I'd agree there could be scrin fighting another faction but martians?
i think that goes against logic, i mean if they conquer Mars and Earth is RIGHT THERE then why would they wait? they would have conquered it before humans had a chance to get in the way.

I actually just wrote a small story on the events the occurred before Red Alert earlier today. I'll post a new topic topic for it and link to it...

Here you go.
