Red Alert:

Ok, first off there are some fascist and communist symbols in the game, dont freak out, I dont promote fascism or communism, they are there for historical accuracy

Now that the disclaimer is out of the way: 

Red alert is a tower defense game where you hold your position against waves of German infantry and tanks.
You will be playing as the Russian army and will have 6 different troops that you can deploy



Game play.
Once you start on your first mission you will be shown what kind of enemy troops you will face, then you will have 45 seconds to deploy your troops before the enemy arrives. Alternately you can press space bar to start the enemy wave.
The wave will last however long it takes for the timer to reach zero.
Your funds meter increases over time, and your funds meter will decrease if you deploy troops (troop costs are on the right hand side of your screen)

After each wave you will be given a password, this can be used with the top left menu to continue from a point in the game.

3. Rocketeer-30 funds- with an anti tank rocket these troops pack a big bang, but they dont have a high rate of fire.

4. Machinegunner-40 funds- with a low profile and a heavy machine gun these troops slice through enemy infantry.

5. Tank-100 funds- tanks have a lot of health and allot of firepower, they have a cannon, which will obliterate other tanks, and a machinegun that will obliterate enemy infantry.

6. Sand bags- 10 funds- these sand bags protect from enemy rockets and flamethrowers.

Note- tanks and sandbags are not available on the first wave.

Enemy troops

2. Officer- armed with an assault rifle these guys have medium range and high firepower.

3. Tank- the Germans field a light tank that has a light cannon and machinegun.

4. Anti aircraft vehicle- with the biggest machinegun in the game these will destroy your infantry defenses.

5. Flame tank- a tank with a flamethrower on it, very good against infantry.
