It's been a couple of months since the last patch for YR Red-Resurrection and in that time some significant changes have been made. Since the release of 2.2 I have been reworking countries that I felt were lacking, and the last of those was the United Kingdom, who have finally been given the attention they need in this release.
 

Calling in reinforcements from around the empire, the British Army is bolstered with special units capable of turning the tides of battle. Furthermore they gain the Pintail and Pop Shell, which replaces the Arms Jammer, and the Battle Fortress has been reworked.
 

Not only have the UK received additions however, Yugoslavia gains the Ironsmith, an infantry equipped to render your tank divisions unstoppable! As always, new maps have been added as well.
 

If you're interested in how those maps get made you can watch a timelapse of myself creating Close Encounter (2)! Remember to subscribe on YouTube for additional content.
 

Of course there are many balance changes, bug fixes, additional maps and more! Here's an overview of the entire patch:

Big Features
Reworked the United Kingdom, altering existing units and removing and replacing others, including-

• The Colonial Bureau for the UK on T2. Provides units at intervals depending on your tech tier; the Skitter on T1 - a fast amphibious harassment unit equpped with mines, the Gurkha on T3 - a steadfast versatile soldier and the Wildcat at T4 - a long range anti-unit artillery.
• The Pintail for the UK. An aircraft available at T3, replaces the Arms Jammer. Attaches a bomb to enemy vehicles that jams their weapons, and the weapons of surrounding vehicles, for 45 seconds.
• The Pop Shell support power for the UK. Spawns a tank bunker anywhere on the map, allowing you to fortify an area on the fly!
• The Ironsmith for Yugoslavia. And infantry on T3 who can attach charges to friendly vehicles which double their armour when activated!
• A new client feature; the Pick Random Map button, available in skirmish and multiplayer. Selects a random map based on the number of participants in the game.
• 7 all new maps in skirmish and multiplayer.
• A dozen reworked existing maps for more interesting strategies and improved balance.
• Many balance adjustments and bug fixes.

The patch can be downloaded and manually installed, if you are unable to use the client updater for whatever reason.

Patch 2.2.10 has been released, this time with the major theme being revitalising naval combat. Two new units have been added for that - the Gunboat and Zhaba - and existing units have been reworked, moved around on the tech tree etc. Hopefully it feels more well structured, chunkier and satisfying to play on the seas.

Europe has also received another dose of adjustments, with the addition of the Quantum Lab and Crackdown power, making them a bit more versatile and less rigid in their playstyle. Screenshots of those changes can be seen below.
 

Big Features

• REWORKED NAVY, including a new ship for both the Allies and the Soviets as well as rebalanced and reworked existing units for more sensible battles on the seas.
• NEW CONTENT FOR EUROPE: the Quantum Lab on T2, which now provides the Quantum Leap ability, and Crackdown, a T3 power that equips GIs with riot gear!
• NEW CONTENT AT THE SECRET LAB: the Magnetron! On T3, it now slows units to a crawl, and attaches a magnetic effect to them further slowing other nearby enemies. A highly useful support unit.
• Lots of big reworks to existing maps with a navy focus, helping to further flesh out that area of the game.
• 7 brand new, high quality maps for multiplayer!
• Updated campaign missions to support the new navy as well as fix a few issues and adjust unit availability.
• Lots of balance adjustments to existing units and bug fixes.

The next patch is well underway and possibly the most game-changing yet as it includes alterations to several countries- more on those can be read on the relevant images below.
 

As well as those, there is certainly more to come, the usual host of balance changes and many new maps.

Community YouTube Content
Lots of people have started uploading multiplayer games of Red-Resurrection. Check out their channels and subscribe to follow for future matches.

Here's an example of the new gamemode, and one of the new maps!

• NINE NEW MAPS - Including 6 exclusive 1v1s and 3 2v2s.
• ONE NEW GAMEMODE - Competitive, with a small select map pool and fixed options for tournament play.

Soviet invasion confirmed! This is not a drill! YR Red-Resurrection 2.2 is finally here, no joke!

It is by the far biggest update to the mod ever, having taken the last year to develop (to the month), driven largely by the interest and feedback fromt the little discord community that has developed. The original goal was simply to port the mod to the CnCNet 5 client, making it possible to play online again and increase accessibility, but as it went along it resulted in almost totally overhauling the eight countries as well, making them very individual and unique.
 

Tonnes of work has gone into this and I definitely want to thank the testers and contributors for making it possible and, largely, a fun experience.   Particularly a thanks needs to go to Starkku for making this entire thing possible by providing lots of technical support, particularly with the client, and the toolset he has developed.

And now its out!

Features

• Two factions, the Allies and the Soviets with all new arsenals.
• Four countries per faction, each with 12-15 unique units, structures and support powers.
• An entirely rebalanced experience with rapid, dynamic gameplay providing the player with plenty of opportunities for attack.
• Over 140 new units, structures & support powers (with 75+ added in this patch alone!).
• Over 300 multiplayer maps and several game modes, including Dead Resurrection - where infantry killed in combat rise from the dead.
• The vanilla Red Alert 2 campaign ported to work with the additional content of Red-Resurrection.
• The CnCNet 5 client from rampastring & Starkku, with additional unique features.
• Also includes an offline manual and map editor!

Progress has come to a head on the development of YR Red-Resurrection 2.2, Commander. The Soviets have amassed their armies, the Allies are prepped for war and the world is a powder keg waiting to blow any day now! Who will you fight for?
 

Yes, this means the next release is imminent and will feature:

• Two factions, the Allies and the Soviets with new arsenals.
• Four countries per faction, each with 12-15 unique units, structures and support powers.
• An entirely rebalanced experience with rapid, dynamic gameplay providing the player with plenty of opportunities for attack.
• Over 300 multiplayer maps and several game modes, including Dead Rising - where infantry killed in combat rise from the dead.
• The vanilla Red Alert 2 campaign ported to work with the additional content of Red-Resurrection.
• The CnCNet 5 client from rampastring, with additional unique features and menu themes.

To tie you over I've also uploaded a few more videos to youtube recently, the latest of which is a 2v2 with me & tyhednus vs AdmiralPit & modder666 (of Final War). Mistakes were made.
 

Stay tuned.
