This is a sub-page of Command & Conquer: Generals/Unused Content in the Original/Unused Sounds.

This needs some investigation.

Check if

  • "Our ally in under attack" quotes are actually used, I'm not 100% sure.
  • "Beacon detected" is used in multiplayer to point out a place\path for allies or something similar.
  • "Reinforcements have arrived" is not used in campaigns, if not - add these quotes.

GLA has "we cannot build there" quote, but the other two EVAs don't, add them if they exist.

Plenty of EVA annoucements were scrapped from the final game. There are typical C&C annoucements like "Unit ready" or "Construction complete", General Power activation warnings and leftovers from POW logic.

There are also three quotes about disabled base defences, which might point to unknown removed game mechanic.
