 --ABOUT-----------------

Crimson is a campaign for the Soviets, it includes 23 unique and
previously unpublished missions. I'm calling it the "premier RA 
Campaign" for the simple reason that it is the first campaign to 
surpass, or indeed, match the number of missions in the original.

 --FILES-----------------

Included in the package are the following files:

        SC-042.MIX      The missions themselves
        MISSION.INI     Mission briefings
        TUTORIAL.INI    In-game tutorial texts
        CRIMSON.TXT     This documentation
