Was used in previous C&C games for determining the internal filename for objects specific to this country (such as loading screens). The string contained here would form the ending of the filename for that object (continuing the above example, if Suffix= was set to 'B' then loading screens for this country would all have a filename of 'A_rest_of_filename_B.SHP'). It is not known what significance this has in Red Alert 2 or even if it is used although it is parsed. TRIVIA FACT: the 'JP' suffix used to define the [Special]side remains residual from Tiberium Dawn where it was used to reference files with a 'JP' extension - this indicted that the file was used by the Jurassic Park missions!
