Four community maps for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 — vanilla PC, patch 1.12, by Lightkeeper01. Each map installs independently and uses the original game's factions. No additional mod is required.
New: Three Kingdoms — Mandate 219 v0.2. Fight as Wei, Shu and Wu across mountain passes, Jingzhou and the Yangtze. This update deepens the river and strengthens the Wei–Shu mountain barriers. Revised naval movement still needs in-game playtesting.

- Extract the entire Player ZIP, then run
Install-Map.cmdor follow the manual installation guide. - Restart Red Alert 3 and begin a new skirmish. Old matches or saves can retain the old terrain.
- For Three Kingdoms, assign seats 1+2 to Wei, 3+4 to Shu, and 5+6 to Wu, with a different team number for each pair. Set starting positions manually.
All four maps can coexist. Use identical map versions on every multiplayer machine. The game is not included; these maps are not for Red Alert 2, Uprising or other C&C titles.

Report a bug or balance issue. Include the map version, RA3 patch, faction, starting seat, team settings and reproduction steps. For blocked movement, include the unit type and location; a screenshot or replay helps.
Automated checks and successful file installation do not prove engine pathfinding, multiplayer synchronization or competitive balance. Each map's guide describes its actual testing status.
