Hordes of Tesla Tanks are the best :)
Noticed a nit:
If Red Alert takes place before Tiberium Dawn and Tiberian Sun, why don't we see more of the weapons from the Red Alert series in the normal series?
I have a theory about that. C&C and Red Alert seem to take place in different universes. The original C&C seemed "contemporary" or maybe even slightly futuristic, so it would be set in the 90's or 2000. Red Alert takes place shortly after WWII should have, so sometime in the late 40's. Red Alert 2 takes place in the 70's, according to the newspaper that flashes onscreen when you beat the Allied game. Tiberian Sun seems to take place many years after the original C&C. So they can't all be in the same universe- Kane (who does show up in a minor role in Red Alert) would be about 100 years old by Tiberian Sun! So they're either different universes or they're like Tom Clancy books- you're supposed to enjoy the story without paying too much attention to the timeline.
Sort of spoilers
The original Westwood plan for the chronological order was Red Alert (1950s), Tiberian Dawn (subtitle of the original C&C, 1990s), Tiberian Sun (2030s) and Tiberian Twilight (God knows as it hasn't been released yet).
But then Westwood was taken over by EA and they demanded another Red Alert game, hence Red Alert 2 which doesn't fit into the overall chronology very well. Though IMO it's probably the best game of the lot.
As for Kane...he's supposed to be at least 6000 years old by Red Alert, never mind the others! (He's supposed to actually be Cain from the Bible, and immortal, and an agent of the alien race known as the Scrin...there, was that enough spoilers for you? Though there's a hint at the end of Tiberian Sun: Firestorm that his apparent immortality is actually due more to transferring his consciousness into clone bodies, like Emperor Palpatine in the Star Wars Dark Empire series.
