2. why could i use the nuke only once? why it didn't recharge? it just dissapeared from the right side... if you can use it only once any tips where the best use would be?

Nukes work strangely. The immediate area around the blast is the place the least damage will be dealt, and the medium to the long ring is where the damage will be heavy.

Keeping this in mind, you can blow up about any building in the game in one hit. You only need to aim well and scale the explosion accordingly. Unless I'm mistaken, you can even destroy command centers this way... And it's the only way to destroy a command center in one hit in the whole game..!

And that's the same as in real world, too.

Make shortcut to the excecutable. The you have to put something like -cd -funpark after the target in to the target box. More info at www.commandandconquer.ea.com , or some other site... Google it.

Just "funpark". Forget about the -cd thing, it's meant to run the game without CD, so that won't work unless you got the First Decade setup where all files are on your hard disk.



As for the -cd parameter... the syntax is
C&C95.EXE -cddirectory to use as CD

Examples:
C&C95.EXE -cdC:\Games\CNC_CD
--> uses "C:\Games\CNC_CD"

C&C95.EXE -cdcovert
--> uses subdirectory "covert" in your C&C directory

C&C95.EXE -cd.
--> the dot is the DOS notation for "current directory". This makes it look for the CD files in the C&C directory.

Note that just C&C95.EXE -cd without anything behind it simply DOESN'T DO ANYTHING. If you run it like that the game will still ask for a CD.

Also note that if you don't have the C&C files in the specified folder OR your C&C game folder, the game will most likely crash or hang when it doesn't find its files.

In GDI campaing you move from Estonia trough central and oriental Europe and end somewhere in balkans? I am not sure about it, long since i dont play it.
NOD brothers should move from north Africa to south until destroy GDI´s superweapons.

first is dune second is C&C

C&C is best then Dune but Dune was the first so, C&C is the continuation

[Eagle of Fire]

Actually, Dune was a Strategy/Adventure game based on the movie. Dune 2 is the RTS prequel to all other. C&C is not at all the continuation of Dune 2, but a new game altogether with another story completely separated from Dune 2.

If you said that because of the review, I suggest you re-read it carefully again.

Disputable at the very least.
Consider that Final Frontier was published in 1987.
While Dune 2 may have ignited the RTS boom, it was not even the first RTS which Westwood had their hands in developing (Battletech: Crescent Hawks' Revenge scoops that prize).

I'm going to have to one up you there and mention The Ancient Art of War
It came out in 84 or so, way back when, and I think its regarded as an RTS.

Command and Conquer. A classic. I used to love to use cheats and build a massive army of grenade troops that filled the whole screen, and then send them off to attack a base. Hilarity ensues.

Hey, command and conquer is free now you know. Its available for free download on commandandconquer.com, so im going to guess they wouldnt mind if you put it up for download here too
