Just giving the computer a break :)
Also, don't reply to a sup with a sup.
Been playing C&C Generals to death with various mods.
Project Raptor is rather unbalanced and unpolished, the voiceovers the modders themselves added are quite awful indeed. Power plants provide obscene amounts of power, usually meaning to cut someone's power out, you literally need to destroy every single power plant. And also GLA need to use them as well :/
Money is also ridiculously easy to come by, so in combination with this, the AI in skirmish spams an ungodly amount of units, which tbh is just the way I love it. I now have an excuse to use the particle cannon on units :v:
Units are also built much faster, turning the stream of units into a goddamn flood. As long as you maintain a good defence system, and save any veteran units you have, you'll survive it easy. The same can't be said of any AI allies you might have, so prepare to lose them unless you help them too.
The "Militia" faction added in it is completely unfinished and thus not really playable.
Lots of units to play with, perhaps even too much. With the Air general, there's so many planes to choose from, though you'll usually only end up using the F-23 (10 missiles and bombs) and the Aurora, the rest seem superfluous.
A few new superweapons are also added, but they feel more like old ones made for different armies' instead, like the tomahawk storm or ICBM.
The various generals aren't as well differentiated as in vanilla or the next mod i'll talk about. They tend to get all the air units of the other generals, and equivalent or more powerful land units.
The generals challenges are easier, and a new one is added, the infantry general. As soon as you get your economy up, it's smooth sailing from then on.
Shockwave is a more balanced and polished mod, but not as hectic an affair when battling the AI, due to the vanilla standard of the power and money gathering. This makes cutting power off with a particle beam, for instance, a more valid tactic, as well as sabotaging their economy. However, the AI doesn't spam as much units, which I found not to be as fun :(.
The differences between generals are well defined, and the 3 new generals added feel ready, and they give a much different play style than the others. However, the AI doesn't work with those ones :(
This one new general, US armour dude, has a rather unique defence placement system. You first build this concrete block, then you upgrade it to take the shape of anti-tank cannons, anti-infantry miniguns or air raid alert system garrisonable by 2 infantry. The CIWS is anti-air and missile. Each excels at it's task, but does not work well at all against others, as opposed to the other armies' all-rounder defences.
All the new units are fun to play with and don't overlap too much. There's this one unit the US gets, an exosuit which takes the form of whatever infantryman you put in it. So you put a ranger, you get 4 autocannons. Special forces, 2 miniguns. Rocket troop, 2 missile pods. Sniper, 2 long range, high damage autocannons. Put in Colonel Burton with the OICW upgrade, you get a minigun and grenade launcher. Not tried it with troops from the other armies, I usually destroy everything rather than capture it. The air general gets only 1 new plane to play with (but it's a good one), the B1 lancer, drops cluster bombs, insanely awesome against, well, clusters of units.
The generals challenges are much more difficult, and a different new one is added, the demolitions general. I. Hate. That. Bastard. Everything on the map except your little plateau is covered with mines. Every unit that guy produces explodes on death or impact. His favourite little trick is to drive suicide bikes up the cliff and blow up your stuff, while rocket buggies, in the aforementioned minefield (no land counterattack) and in range of his air defences (no air counterattack, or at least a survivable one) stops you building defences there. Oh, did I mention his SCUD storms do more damage? Oh, he loves to build those.
The other generals are ramped up in difficulty. The air general starts bombing you early, and hard. Even though in Project Raptor units are built faster, he manages to keep up a faster flow of units, pounding your base into rubble. If you're anyone except the laser general, with his amazing AA and AT defence, you're screwed. Tank general, well, just builds more tanks, and randomly sprouts a nuclear missile launcher in his base at some point. He's probably the easiest one.
Tbh I prefer Shockwave mod. I also don't expect any of you to read this, but w/e.
