I would like to introduce an NES I have worked on for the last few months(on and off work ethic ;) )

RED ALERT NES

The year is 1950, the Pacific War has been over for 5 years. The Empire of Japan has been thwarted in it's attempt on Asian domiance. The United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics are the largest military and economic powers on the planet. World War Two has yet to happen.

In 1924, Adolf Hitler was mysteriously killed while walking out of prison. By 1933, the Nazi party fell apart as the Weihmer Republic mourned the death of their leader Hidenburg. The world was in the middle of a depression. The entire world suffered. In 1941 the world became engulfed into the pacific War as Japanese attacks on America, France and Britain commensed. This was the Japanese Empire's bid for Asian dominance.

Japan was defeated soundly by the Allies of France, Britain, the USA, China and many others. The Americans were forced to drop 2 atomic bombs on Japan as Russia swept through Japanese territories. America hd almost 4 million troops helping the British and Chinese drive the Japanese out of Asia. The sheer numbers and power of the Allies overwhelmed the Japanese as they surrended in August 1945.

The Allies had a new enemy after the war, communism. Communist forces in China would take 4 years to route out by Chinese and American soldiers. Korea is currently split between the north and south. The Greeks have barly been able to win a civil war against communist forces. In Central America, communist forces try to gain power. Eastern Europe is gaining large communist populations that might try to rebel.

The route of all of this communism is the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the USSR. After a humiliating defeat at the hands of Finland in 1939, Stalin began to beef up his military. Bu 1942 the purges had stopped and the new T-34 tank rolled into the spotlight during the May Day Parade. The innovative Yak fighter/bomber was unvieled when Russia stormed through Japan's forces in 1945. Russia has currently taken over Poland in a storm. Within 1 month, on December 24, Poland's government fled the nation and Poland was fully annexed by Russia. Thje war saw the debut of the T-54, RUssia's newest tank, The Mig-15 Russia's newest Jet and the TU-95 Bear, Russia's newest heavy bomber. All considered to be some of the best equipment in the world matching or surpassing their American counterparts. Europe stands on the presapous of World War Two.

INNOVATIONS:
Tech Trees- depending on who you ally with you can create differnt units form the American path, the Soviet path or the default European Path.

Outside Nations- The map only involves Europe but there are 7 nations(not counting US) that arn't on the map that players must deal with. More may come overtime.

Colonies- Coloinies are represented also. They can be traded, fought over and rebel. They provide economic bonuses, but watch out. Their spplies can be cut by opposing fleets.

I can give rules, nations etc upon request. I have them finished more or less :)

OOC: USSR is permanently NPC. to strong as an opening player
