Description
The original C&C and RA are fondly remembered for their awesome installation sequences:

We could win some easy nostalgia points by creating custom modcontent mods for RA and TD that have new artwork based on these sequences and some key sound effects (which we would need to ship inside the installer).
#14881 could be implemented by including the first-run video in the quickinstall package, and then playing it after extracting the package and before switching to the proper mod.
