Confused too? It is an add on. Red Alert 3 is just 2 MONTHS old and some group of people over at EA decided to announced that an expansion with some MINOR additional contents ONLY for single player mode with NO multiplayer or cooperative mode units addition for a cost. Apparently with a new commander's challenge with 50 scenarios and new maps. Tiberium Wars took about a good year before the Kane's Wrath expansion. I had no problems with that.
Again, as I pointed out, it should be free for the game to gain more popularity. More people will buy the base game. Most games took years before venturing to expansions. It amazes me that EA expects you to pay more for so little. I do buy expansions for games, but this time EA is selling it just after 4 months after release of the base game. Go figure.
