Complete Annihilation

[edit] Introduction
Complete Annihilation (CA) is a game made for the Spring engine. It is a derivative of the original Total Annihilation (OTA), with the goal of eventually replacing all copyrighted content (models, textures and the like) with original, open source content.
CA emphasizes distinct unit roles and fluid, always-moving gameplay from start to finish.
