DESCRIPTION

The battle for Europe rages on in this Command & Conquer: Red Alert expansion pack. Joseph Stalin strikes back with new technology and new harbingers of death. The Allies continue to defend humanity from the grip of communism as they attempt to hold back the might of the Red Army in an alternate historical universe that finds Adolph Hitler missing in action.

Counterstrike introduces eight new units, from Tesla Tanks and SuperJets to Elite Super Soldiers and Wonder Dogs. The expansion also features eight new missions for each faction and contains a new set of deadly nuclear technologies. There are three difficulty options, eight songs, and 100 multiplayer maps on which to battle. In addition to providing an option to play the missions in any order, the expansion also includes a Windows 95 desktop theme pack. ~ Michael L. House, All Game Guide
