Alrighty people, I have now completed the Desert Corps. Faction*.

List of changes made that made the Desert Corps 'Faction' a reality:

USA Barracks
Ranger
Tank Hunter
Assassin
Hacker
Guerilla
Militia Worker**
Capture Buidling
Flash Bangs
Nationalism

GLA Arms Dealer
Militia Tank
Dune Buggy
Humvee
Rocket Buggy
Technical
Battlemaster
Radar Van
Bomb Truck
Avenger
Battle Bus
Tank General's T-89 Artillery
Ambulance

China Airfield
MiG
MiG Armor
Stealth Fighter (requires strategy center instead of science)
Comanche
Hokum
Black napalm
Bunker Busters
Countermeaseures
Rocket pods
Combat Chinook

Militia Oil Derrick
Chem suits (instead of spear tank)

China Supply Center
No mines or heavy supply trucks
Supply Lines upgrade

China Bunker
No Neutron Mines

America Patriot Missile Launcher

Militia Artillery

Militia Command Center

GLA Power Plant

Strategy Center
Now has the following upgrades:
Autoloaders
AP Rockets
AP Bullets
Radar Van Scan
Advanced training
Rocket Buggy Ammo
Drone Armor

Nuke Silo
Has all mines
Replaced Neutron Shells and Neutron Grenades with Overhaul and Junk Repair

Demo Trap

**Can be made at command center as well

Included is the map.ini that I used to make the Desert Corps. You can put it in any skirmish map folder (as long as you still have PR installed), and play against any of these generals:

Nuke
Infantry
Toxin
Demo
Stealth
Superweapon
Laser

Don't go against any other generals/factions, as I used buildings and units from them. Using it against or with one of the factions/generals not shown on the list above will cause the AI to not work, as they want to build something but can't because I changed the prerequisites on most base faction structures and units.

*Note: Only works if you are the Militia

so basically a All in One faction? Sounds interesting...maybe if i can get my damn computer to stabilize ill give it a try

[00 Nobody]

Yep, it's a combo of all the base factions and the Militia. However, I must state that half the generals powers are no longer working anymore. The oil derrick no longer requires a power, there are no scrap units, and the howitzer no longer exists. Only the emergency repair, fund ambush, and defector actually have uses.

One more thing

Only be the militia or one of the generals shown in post #1. The militia is replaced by the desert corps, and the other generals/factions have changed unit prerequisites, so only play militia or one of the generals in post #1

Yet another thing

Please tell me what you think of the Desert Corps, if you've downloaded the map.ini for them. Thanks.

Alright everyone, You've played around a bit with the Desert Corps in Skirmish Mode. Now, you can play their Campaign. Beginning with Mission 1: New Beginnings, you have to fight the Desert Empire, who rule the desert like dictators, with iron fists and tanks.

The map will be a little easy, but don't worry, the next one will be much harder.

Mission 2: Technological Destruction, is out.

Just watch the intro to learn about the straightforeward mission (which, by the way, is much harder then the first).

Special things about the mission:
Cannot produce units.

Please post comments and ask questions about the Desert Corps. I have a reason to post right now and I can't do it because I don't wanna quadruple post.

Here ya go!

The first mission as you said was easy, but a nice one to ease you into the desert corp.

The second mission tho wasn't as hard as you say although you have no money you can still train workers from the command center all i had to do was sneak in and capture a few buildings and sell em for cash.

if your using it for the radar then maybe you could put an empty radar van there or disable the workers from the command center.

plus the mountains around are passable, thats how i got in , but i think thats intentional

all in all good maps, but the only thing is the AI doesn't attack, even when you attack units, although it was with artillery

[00 Nobody]

Artillery is like that unless I use a script to tell it to 'Hunt.' They won't shoot anyone, even if shot at.

Alrighty people, i need help deciding on what to do as a scenario for the third one.

A quick contest will be set up. Simply post your ideas in there. The winner will get a special release version with better details, and their name will be mentioned at the end of the mission (i.e. soandso made up the plot to this map. or something like that). More details in the topic for it.
