This section houses new maps for use in Red Alert multiplayer games against the computer in Skirmish mode or against other human opponents. Most of the maps are in zipfiles to make it easier and faster to download.
Note: some maps have alterations built in to change characteristics of some units / structures!

[ Click here to see a directory list of all the available maps at RA-Archive ]

To use these maps:
Click on the filename of the map zipfile you want and choose a place to download it on your hard drive. If the map has a .mpr extension instead of a .zip extension then you need to download it by clicking on the link. Unzip the map(s) you want to your main Red Alert directory (usually C:\WESTWOOD\REDALERT).
This can be done using Winzip which can be downloaded for a free trial period.

This is not necessary for maps which are not zipped up (ie those which already have a .mpr extension). You can now start up Red Alert and choose the map(s) to play on from the list of maps in the multiplayer settings. Note, if you have several maps in your directory, Red Alert can take longer to load up (although it does not affect the gameplay). If you wish to remove maps simply delete or rename files ending with a .mpr extension.

Description: A small two player map. I was just practicing copying & pasting and what do you know a playable map. This one is pretty redundant, however it really dosent play bad. I wouldn't rate it very high though. Lots & lots of choke points.

Description: Although there are no natural barriers to use for defense, you can actually hold out against a mass attack if you manage to get your ground defenses up in time. Plentiful resources make this one a contest of building judgement. A favorite tactic to use against the computer here is to build a line of ore silos towards its base and then destroy its buildings with Tesla coils.

Description: This map is designed for 2-4 players and as such 4 of the flags are placed one space from the other 4 flags. This insures that you get a proper starting point, but may also mean that you could start right next to an opponent. Can't do anything about this though.

Description: Being a much contested battlefront, Eastern Germany is now a debris-ridden landscape. The effects of the last battles has taken their toll. Naval forces can be deployed in the Weser basin, and up the river itself. Choose your base location carefully as clear terrain is in high demand! Plenty of resources should make this map a favorite for fans of attrition games.
