In no way is this related to Paradox. This page (Alpha Centauri Paradox Scenario) isn't directly related to Red Alert 3: Paradox, neither the game nor the lore. However, it deserves to be on the wiki for other reasons, such as discussion, comic relief or community activity. The rules are listed on the specific pages, but generally they're mostly for relaxing. Still, adhere to the Paradox Wiki Rules, and have fun on your time off! |

It did not last. Who slew the captain, the one woman capable of holding the forces of the world together, only the Order of the Talon can say. The last breath of that old scorpion, they hope, but the damage is done. Humanity is broken once more, and under the alien suns of the Alpha Centauri system, humanity's next ordeal has begun...
