A few simple questions..
1. Will there be a CTP 3?
2. Why aren't there any fictional units?(like skeletons, elves etc.)?
3.Does anyone know if activision is planning to release the images they used to create their animate their units so that we can modify them easier(don't reply that they aren't supporting it, cause this is irrelevant to the question)?

No, Activision has pulled all support for the CtP series.

Its meant to be a realtic-type game. Its hard enough to make units that no fans have made many fantasy units. The only ones on public release are here

No, Activision hate the game, and aren't going to make life (or modding) any easier for us. It is theoretically possible to decode the sprite files, ask someone who can program C++ like Martin the Dane.

Thank you very much , you've been a great help.
So typical on Activision's side. I bought both CTP & CTP 2, it seems now that it was probably a waste of money, since they're not supporting it. Sad since it was a good game, possibly excluding some unconventional(not all) units. I suppose they understand what sort of bad reputation this has as an implication. I think I'll think very much before buing their games in the future(and to think they have the star trek licence ).
