It's my Christmas present overdue, a tank voxel in the downloads section! My new Year's resolution: to make twice as many and post 'em up!

YNT's First B-Day Approaching
It's been 1 year minus two weeks since YNT was created. It's come a long way since then too. I'm gonna add some really special features to Armageddon for this. Until then, you can still see the progress I've made at the forums.
There are some positions in the mod team that you can have if you wish to join in our efforts. If you'd like to be a part of the developing team you can go here and apply: http://ynt.3.forumer.com/index.php?showtopic=37
RA2/YR Modding Community Dying
Yep. Members of the modding community are quitting their projects. Possibly great mods are being lost in the process. The community of modding RA2/YR is going out, not with a bang, but with a fizzle. These mods should be released so the creators can share their last sign of appreciation for the game to the world. I have to update my links/affiliates section too. They're getting old and inactive. Hopefully by the time Armageddon is released, YR will still have a breath of life in it, and that I may be able to rehabilitate it for some time to come. Mine could quite possibly be the last released mod for YR, so I'm going to add as much replay value into it as I can without overworking myself, or boring myself with it, as some modders have.

Armageddon Progress
I've renamed the Future Updates page to Armageddon Progress. It's coming together well. Just gotta make the new single-player campaign and tidy up the Skirmish modes.
I've unfortunately lost the Archived News so I'll have to start from a clean page again. Oh well.

Downloads Page is Growing!
More unit graphics are up for download! Images are there and at the forum so check the forums for more updates!

First Graphic for Download
I've added a download to the Downloads page. It's an aircraft used in YNT that I submitted to a voxel competition and it got 4th place out of 5. But don't let that discourage you from downloading, it's still pretty good.

New Armageddon Campaign, YR:TSW Cancelled
I've finally created the storyline for Armageddon! It's much better, and longer, than the original one. Heck, the other one wasn't really a storyline, just a lengthy description. This one has a plot(and so does Yuri).
I've now begun work on the Soviet campaign in which the remainder of the Soviet government rebuilds and its army attacks rebels to clear the way for an invasion of Europe.
On a different note, KaRsKiN has decided to cancel his mod project, YR: The Second War. He and I will now work on his conversion, 'Nam '65, which turns the YR world into the Vietnam War. He's trying to get a site and forum up for it now, and it should become available by next week, after which I'll provide a link to it from here.

YNT Armageddon Progressing Slowly
Freewebs.com/psiclone has closed due to inactivity and the fact that we have a forum now. None of the information was lost, and it will be added to this site.
I've made an addition to the Future Updates section, including many images.
AI coding is adding to my troubles, so the mod will definitely not be released until I've fixed it. More unit changes are in place, but they won't be finished for a while either.
Things I have left to add:
- new Tech Airbase
- Tech Airbase special aircraft
- new unit cameos
- 4 new Skirmish modes
- tons of new units
- new multiplayer maps
- enhanced AI

General Update 3
Since the WebsAlbum loads so slow(or not at all even), I've decided to add fewer images to it and update it more often. You should be able to see it now.
Also, KaRsKiN needs a SHP artist, and we both need an AI ini coder for modding work. Email one of us if you'd like to join, or post a reply at either of our forums.

Forum needs Members
So far I have only a couple members on the forum. I know it isn't much right now but give it time to grow. If you'd like to sign up, it's at http://ynt.3.forumer.com. Also, KaRsKiN's new forum(http://yrsecondwar.3.forumer.com) needs your support. Of course you're not obligated to join, nor are we down on our knees begging you to, but it would be nice to have a few more members to contribute and share opinions.

The K-12 Crusher. No weapon information available. This was going to be a medium-tech Allied aircraft. The image on the right is an older image of the unit, but the unit still looks mostly identical.
The original Enterprise. Captain Kirk returns in Yuri's Revenge! No other details of the unit's ingame performance is available. I had planned to make a new Skirmish mode, called Star Trek: Yuri's Revenge, where the Allied aircraft were replaced with Federation starships, the Soviet aircraft were replaced with Klingon ships, and Yuri's aircraft were replaced with Romulan ships.
This is the huge Allied Cargo Transport. It holds up to 15 troops or 5 tanks (it only carries smaller-sized tanks, not MCVs or Apocalyps tanks). Weapon information unavailable. It has very good armor but it's just a bit faster than the Kirov airship. This is currently the largest unit I've built.
This is the Scythe. It's Yuri's hovering version of the Psychic Tower, because it can mind control 3 units at once. It has good armor and speed, at a hefty cost of $1300.
