& ConquerÔ Generals.

relive the history of C&C, and I’m thrilled to see this collection
offered in one package,” said Louis Castle, VP of Creative
Development at EALA. “It seems like yesterday when we were all

this new type of strategy game.”

of the C&C franchise. As a special bonus, C&C fans also have the
