Red Alert 2 DDRAW.DLL Error code 80070057
There are 3rd party launchers that patches and handles The Ultimate Collection games but those are for the Origin version and I'm not sure if they even work for the EA App version.

A Linux User's Guide to Command & Conquer
Command & Conquer Generals/Zero Hour: Unfortunately, we are now out of the realm of games that can be entirely fixed by a simple EXE swap out of hand. Fortunately, there are still fixes. Like all games in The Ultimate Collection (Ultimately inferior, more like...), Generals is compromised by terrible EA DRM. Unlike RA2, you can't entirely remove it, but for it and all subsequent games I'll discuss, the best way to handle things is to used the Fixed Launchers Installer. This beauty applies registry fixes and replaces the executables with slightly patched versions that remove a bit of that pesky EA DRM. You still need to have Origin installed in the prefix (I tried to avoid that, believe me), but once you've run the fixer, you no longer need to launch the games through Origin (and in fact should avoid doing so), or their launchers, and can just launch the EXEs directly. Furthermore, you don't need to keep Origin running. Oh, and mods work again. So that's all lovely. The other fix required for Renegades and Zero Hour is gentool which is a d3d8.dll replacement (add that to your DLL overrides...) which fixes the multiplayer, allows for playing at higher resolutions, offers rudimentary anticheat for online play (in that it verifies and checksums the loaded content) and so on. Never leave home without it.

- AI hit one of my obelisks while the deploy animation was going. Sent me ~1,000,00 power into the red. Deploying a GDI barracks fixed it later. Has anyone else seen this before?

Error trying to run CnCNet (C&C) on Linux Mint
There's also a project called Vanilla Conquer which is a perfect port of the originals based on open source code released with the remaster but it's not been packaged so it has to be built from source.

C&C: "Red Alert" and "Tiberian Dawn"s Linux ports added to Luxtorpeda
u/d10sfan has added Vanilla Conquer source port for Command & Conquer: Red Alert and Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn which are part of Command & Conquer Remastered Collection to Luxtorpeda repos. Thanks to that, native Linux ports of those games can be played as Steam games.

Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn's Linux port added to Luxtorpeda for Steam
The title is misleading, OpenRA is not a linux port of Tiberian Dawn or Red Alert for that matter, its a fan clone game. Vanilla Conquer is a proper linux port of the original games based on the source code released for the remaster.

PSX Red Alert appreciation post
https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Vanilla-Conquer is an open source build of the original C&C and Red Alert based on the source code released for the remaster. It needs the data from the original games but they are freeware and can be found dotted around the internet.

C&C Red Alert Remastered Map Editor
Neutral being uncapturable is probably due to https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Vanilla-Conquer/issues/668 this bug because if I recall correctly, the neutral is considered to be allied to all other houses even if other houses aren't allied with them.

Need help playing Red Alert on a Chromebook
I think so. I think you just have to download the binary from the releases thing and then follow the instructions here . There's also a Discord server if you need more help.
What are some alternatives?
