I cannot get any of the manuals for the command and conquer ultimate collection.

This is a pack with the official pdf manuals included with games (or added on the official FTP sites) which I've collected over the years:

The pack includes the manuals of Command & Conquer 1, Red Alert 1, Tiberian Sun, Firestorm, Red Alert 2, Yuri's Revenge, Renegade and Generals, and the strategy guide for Zero Hour (which was available on the official EA FTP at some point).

For the others, I suggest you check out a site like http://replacementdocs.com

Thanks for the the link 

My point is that if they make a statement that the links should be there.  Then EA/ Origin needs to have it done!!!

Meh. All of the Ultimate Collection is a mess. I don't trust them on anything in this.
