First, it's worth noting that this guide was written for Hard mode, which is
significantly more difficult than Easy or Medium mode. If some of my
suggestions and comments in the guide seem unreasonable, it's probably because
you're not playing on Hard mode.
Next, I'll cover some of the most important keyboard/mouse functions. If
you've played at least one or two other RTS games before, most of these will
probably be familiar already, but if not, you should defintely familiarize
yourself with them.
-----
X
-----
- The X key will make your units scatter, making them harder to hit. If you
get into a fight on equal footing (like Rhino on Grizzly, or Grizzly on
Grizzly, et cetera), whoever scatters the best is most likely going to win.
Of course, this is only necessary if you're playing a real person instead of a
computer, but still.
-----
S
-----
- The S key will stop the last command you gave to the units you currently
have selected. This is great for when you realize you just sent something
somewhere stupid, or if you want to stop force-firing on something.
-----
H
-----
- Pressing this will center your screen on your primary Construction Yard.
This is useful when you don't have radar and accidentally bump your mouse or
something.
-----
A
-----
- If you have a unit that isn't yours selected, pressing the A key will allow
you to ally with that computer/human player, preventing your units from
automatically attacking each other.
-----
T
-----
- Select a unit, then press the T key. All units of that type currently
visible on the screen will now be selected. Handy, eh? Try double-pressing
the T key. Now all units of that type anywhere on the battlefield will be
selected. This is another absolute must-have feature for any serious player.
---------------
Ctrl+Left Click
---------------
- Hold down the Control key, then left click on something to make your
selected unit(s) force-fire on a target, even if it's a friendly unit,
building, or just bare ground. This is a great way to purposely destroy
bridges, and it's a great way to deal with units that get Terror Drones in them
too far from a repair bay.
--------------
Alt+Left Click
--------------
- This is similar to Force-Fire, only instead of firing, it'll force your
selected unit(s) to move to the desired location. The main reason you'll want
to use this command is for smashing infantry - tell a vehicle to force-move on
an infantry unit, and it'll actively try to run the unit over.
--------
Ctrl+1-9
--------
- Hold down the Control key, then press one of the number keys from one to
nine. Anything you had selected at the time will now be in a group that
corresponds to the number you pressed. When you let go of that selection,
pressing the corresponding number key again (without Ctrl this time) will
automatically resellect those units. This is an absolute must for efficient
combat, especially in online games. Note that double-pressing the number key
for a group will not only resellect the units, but also center your screen on
the group's current location.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: New York City, New York
------------------
1) Destroy the Soviet Dreadnought fleet.
- There are four dreadnoughts in the water near your starting position. Have
Tanya swim towards them, then use her detonator to completely destroy all four
of them.
2) Make contact with Fort Bradley.
- Take a left at the Statue of Liberty and follow the road, then turn north.
Take a right at the top of the math and follow the bath to the base. Make
Tanya enter it to take control of it.
3) Destroy the Soviet supply base.
- South of Fort Bradley is a small Soviet supply base. Build a barracks, then
train an Engineer and have him repair the bridge by entering one of the yellow
shacks near it. Send Tanya over the bridge and destroy everything, including
the two turrets (which you can detonate from behind before they kill you, but
just barely).
4) Keep Tanya alive.
- If she dies, you fail.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
As usual, the first mission in the game is quite easy. Start by selecting
Tanya and having her swim into the water. Tanya has a nice ability that allows
her to destroy boats with an explosive charge, just like she can destroy
buildings. Simply target the boat to make the detonator icon appear, then tell
her to blow it up. Destroy all four of the Dreadnoughts to complete the first
mission objective.
Take a left at the Statue of Liberty, then head to the top of the map after you
assist the two GIs deployed in the middle of the city. Take a right at the top
of the screen, then head east all the way to Fort Bradley. Once Tanya's inside
the fort, you'll complete the second mission objective, and you'll be given
control of the fort.
Build a barracks, then train an Engineer and have him fix the bridge to the
south (by entering either of the small yellow shacks directly above the
bridge). Send Tanya south over the bridge, then attack the Soviet supply base
from the left (to avoid the two turrets). Tanya's detonator will make short
work of buildings, and her double handguns will slaughter Conscripts easily.
The only tricky part is dealing with the two turrets, but if you approach from
the rear, she can detonate them both just barely before they kill her. Or you
could train a pile of GIs if you're paranoid about getting Tanya killed.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Colorado Springs, Colorado
------------------
1) Capture the Soviet-occupied Air Force Academy Chapel.
- Move Tanya north towards the base, then have her swim across the lake to
avoid the sentry guns. Destroy the Flak Cannons, then have your Rocketeers
destroy the sentry guns. Take control of the base using the Engineers that are
paradropped into the base.
2) Destroy all Soviet forces.
- Once you have control of the base, crank out ten or so Grizzlies from your
war factory, then use them along with Tanya and the Rocketeers to destroy the
Soviet base in the north-east.
3) Keep Tanya alive.
- If she dies, you fail. Watch out for the guard dog in the Soviet base.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
The Soviet patrol in the area is easy to eliminate - just have Tanya pick off
the Conscripts, then lead the tank back to your GIs. Deploy them, and they'll
shred the Rhino while it's distracted with Tanya (or your Rocketeers will arive
first, and they'll make short work of the Rhino). With the patrol eliminated,
send everything north towards the lake. Remember that Tanya can swim, so have
her swim over the lake and attack the air force base from the other side.
Slaughter the Conscripts, then have her detonate the Flak Cannons. Once those
are gone, send in the Rocketeers to destroy the sentry guns. Engineers will be
paradropped into the base, so use them to capture all of the structures. Use
your war factory to produce ten or so Grizzly tanks, then head north-east with
them (and Tanya and the Rocketeers).
The Soviet base is poorly defended. Attack the bottom first, then eliminate
the sentry guns and flak cannons. Send in the Rocketeers once the flak cannons
are gone, and they'll shred the Conscripts. Move Tanya in to decimate the
buildings, but watch out for guard dogs. Once every Soviet unit and structure
is gone, you'll win the mission.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Washington DC
------------------
1) Destroy the Psychic Beacon.
- Garrison the two structures near the bridge to the east of your base with
your GIs, and the Soviets will never be a threat. Simply build a huge Grizzly
pile and move north through the city, past the Washington Monument to the
beacon. (Note that repairing a damaged monument will produce some powerup
crates that often have money in them.)
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Your GIs will be better suited in the two civilian buildings to the east of
your base, near the bridge. Send them over there, and send the rest of them
the building closest to the other bridge, near the hospital. Build your base
while you're at it, putting a power plant down first, followed by an ore
refinery, barracks, and a war factory. Build two or three more ore miners
next, then concentrate on mass-procucing Grizzlies.
Reinforcements will appear on both sides of the map, but you don't really need
to do anything with them. Once you have fifteen or so Grizzlies in your base,
take them north across the bridges and turn left, then pulverize the small
Soviet base there. Continue heading north past the Washington Monument, where
you'll find a much larger Soviet base. Either destroy it or ignore it - your
real objective is north of the base. Destroy the beacon surrounded by the
walls, and the mission's over.
- Use the Destroyers to take out the pair of Grand Cannons as well as the
subpen, then move your transports onto dry land before the subs sink them.
Deploy your MCV and start building a base after that.
2) Destroy the Psychic Amplifier before it comes online.
- The beacon is in the north-west part of the map. Use Grizzlies to punch a
hole in the city, then use the Rocketeer reinforcements the game gives you to
destroy the beacon after the Grizzlies have cleared out the Flak Tracks and
Flack Cannons. (Destroying the power plants near where the Rocketeers appear
will also render the Flak Cannons useless.)
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Use your Destroyers to take out the Grand Cannons, then rush to the west with
your boats. Destroy the subpen and as many units on the beach as you can with
your Destroyers while your transports head for land. The water is crawling
with subs, so don't stop moving. Deploy the transports once they're on dry
land to get the units out of them, then deploy your MCV and start building a
power plant.
Soviet forces will attack right away, so position your GIs and Grizzlies near
your construction yard. More importantly, be ready to move the Grizzlies when
you see a V3 rocket, since you'll need to track down the launcher and destroy
it before it destroys your entire army. Build an ore refinery and a war
factory, then start producing more Grizzlies (after a few more ore miners, of
course).
Take your Grizzlies north through the city. You'll encounter several
garrisoned buildings, but don't worry about them - concentrate on the Flak
Tracks and Flak Cannons instead. You'll be given Rocketeer reinforcements to
the north-east, and if you can eliminate all of the anti-aircraft defenses in
the area, those Rocketeers can end the mission for you.
Move the Rocketeers west along the top of the map, and you'll eventually see
the beacon. Destroy it to finish the mission. (If a Flack Track starts
hitting you from somewhere, just retreat and move some more Grizzlies into the
area.)
- You need to get one of your Spies in there. Have Tonya clear the place out
first, she can slaughter infantry and guys easily. Blast a hole in the wall
with the set of explosive barrels near the eastern Tesla Coil for easy access.
2) Neutralize the 2 Soviet Nuclear Missile Silos.
- The section of your map where the silos are located won't show up until
you've infiltrated the Battle Lab. After that, it's a simple matter of having
Tanya swim over to the western silo. Free the Allied units from the fencing
to the south-west of the silo, then use the Grizzly to blast a hole in the wall
near the silo, so Tanya can detonate it safely. Have Tanya take out the power
plants until the Tesla Coils are no longer powered, then send her to the top of
the map, then east to the second silo. Destroy the eastern coil using the
explosive barrels, then just detonate the second one. Clear out this part of
the base, then destroy the second silo to end the mission.
3) Keep Tanya alive.
- If she dies, you fail. Lots of dogs on this mission, so be careful.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
The only thing of interest in the small Soviet base to the south is a crate
with a speed upgrade in it. You can get Tanya in there to grab it if you're
careful and fast, but it's not really worth your trouble. There're also some
Allied soldiers on the east side of the map, but they're not really important
to the mission either, so don't worry about them.
Have Tanya move north towards the Soviet base, and make sure you're very alert.
Attack Dogs are everywhere, and they'll kill you instantly if you fail to kill
them first. When you reach the base, shoot the explosive barrels around the
eastern Tesla Coil to knock a hole in the wall, then raid the base. Kill
everything that moves, and destroy both power plants below the Battle Lab.
Move to the west side of the base and shoot the barrels to blow a hole in the
wall, then move all the way to the west side of the map. Follow the very
narrow path to the north, where you'll find two crates, one of which is an
armor powerup. Swim over the water to return to the Soviet base, this time
attacking from the north. You can easily force your way in using the same
tactics you used before, and when you destroy the remaining power, the Tesla
Coils will be rendered useless. Send a Spy to the Battle Lab to complete the
first objective and expand the map. (Alternatively, you could've just had a
Spy enter one of the power plants to temporarily disable the base's power.)
Continue heading north with Tanya, then turn to the west when you see the
bridge. Swim across the water to the land on the other side. On the far
western side of the map, you'll find a small fenced-in area with some Allied
troops inside. Destroy the fence by shooting the explosive barrels to free the
Allied forces, then use the Grizzly to knock a hole in the wall of the Soviet
base below the nuclear missile silo.
Detonate it, then destroy the power plants in the area. Exit the base and head
west, then approach the base again from its south-west corner. You'll be able
to destroy all of the base's power from here, rendering the Tesla Coils
useless. Send Tanya and the Grizzly all the way to the north, then head east
until you're above the second Soviet silo.
The Tesla Coil on the eastern side of the base's northern entrance can easily
be destroyed with the explosive barrels, and with the armor upgrade you got
earlier, Tanya can easily survive the hit she'll take from the second coil if
she tries to detonate it. Do so, then move in and knock a hole in the wall
around the second silo. Detonate it to end the mission.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Washington DC
------------------
1) Reinforce and assume command of Allied forces at the Pentagon.
- This will complete on its own when your transports unload.
2) Destroy all Soviet forces in Washington.
- All forces, including infantry inside garrisoned buildings. Use some
Harriers to scout the map if necessary.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
A fairly large Soviet rush will wipe out a lot of the Pentagon's defenses on
the east side at the very start of the mission. Once your transports empty,
deploy your MCV and start building an ore refinery. Use your GIs to garrison
the buildings on the north-west side of your base, then drop the ore refinery
in the south-west corner. Build a barracks and a war factory, then build at
least two more ore miners. Get your Air Force Command and Battle Lab built as
well.
Your next goal should be to reinforce the east side of the Pentagon. Place
three or four more Prism Towers around the north-east corner, and make sure you
have enough power to run them. Next, you'll want something to deal with V3
attacks, so build some Rocketeers and leave them near the Prism Towers. They
can shoot down the V3 rockets before they hit the target, and you can use them
to easily destroy the launchers.
Terror Drones are pesky, but with your Prism Towers active, they shouldn't get
the chance to reach your ore miners. If they do, retreat the miners into the
safety of the Prism Towers. When a miner uses its chrono shift, the Terror
Drone will be left behind - use that fact to distance the miner from the Drone.
The only thing left to do is to start building your attack force, so start
mass-producing Grizzlies. A few IFVs with Engineers in them isn't a bad idea,
since you can use them to repair your damaged tanks. Once you have your force
together, I recommend heading up the west side of the map, then attacking from
the north-west corner. The Soviet forces on the upper parts of the map won't
be very hard to destroy, but the base closer to yours will be considerably
more difficult, mostly because it's a littler more dense.
If you're having problems assaulting it with tanks, build a few more Air Force
Command headquarters and stock them with Harriers, then use the Harrier groups
to destroy the defensive structures inside the Soviet base. Either way, make
sure you wipe it out completely - every unit on the map must be gone before the
mission will end, and that includes Soviet soldiers garrisoned in civilian
buildings. I suggest you use Harriers on those as well, since they can wipe
out tanks fairly easily.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Pearl Harbor, Hawaii
------------------
1) Destroy all Soviet forces.
- This is a little misleading, all you have to do is destroy the Soviet
structures. I suggest using a large Carrier force for this, since they can hit
things from a distance.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
The Soviets are attacking your base from the water, so start by buildings five
or six Destroyers. Use your existing boats to fend off the submarines and
dreadnoughts, then focus on building up your base. You'll want to line the
top, left, and bottom of your base with Prism Towers to defend against the
constant transports and paratroopers, and you'll want a few IFVs with rocket
capability to defend against dreadnought missiles. You'll also want to keep an
Engineer handy, since the Soviets can paradrop engineers directly into your
base and steal a building (usually your ore refinery). Build a Battle Lab so
you can build aircraft carriers, and make sure you have four or more ore miners
running to collect money faster.
With your base secured, you're free to concentrate on building a ridiculous
navy. Get at least ten destroyers if you don't already have them, then build a
group of seven or more carriers. Move south out of your home waters, then turn
west and head for the Soviet occupied island. You'll need to be fairly quick
about it, too, since the Soviets are building a nuclear missile silo.
When you reach the island, deal with the submarines that attack, then use your
destroyers to destroy some of the Flak Cannons along the shore. If the timer
on the nuclear missile gets too low for comfort, attack it with the carriers.
Even though they'll lose all of their planes, they should still easily be able
to destroy it, and they'll regenerate more planes anyway.
With the nuclear threat eliminated, you're free to demolish the Soviet base. I
suggest you start by taking your destroyers underneath the island, then head up
the west side, where you'll find a pair of Soviet shipyards. Destroy them both
to prevent them from building more boats, then start destroying any other Flak
Cannons, Flak Tracks, or Flak troops you can reach. When you've cleared the
area out as well as you can, start targeting anything and everything with your
carriers.
The carriers can easily crush the entire base, and since you don't need to kill
the units, it shouldn't take you long to finish the mission.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Saint Louis, Missouri
------------------
1) Destroy the Soviet Psychic Beacon.
- Approach it from the bottom-right, then have Tanya shoot the barrels on the
top-right corner of the walls surrounding it. The resulting explosion will
take out a huge chunck of the wall as well as some of the buildings inside, but
not enough to make the Tesla Coils lose power. You'll have to run Tanya above
the stadium and carefully detonate the other two power plants, then it'll be
safe to detonate the beacon.
2) Destroy all Soviet forces within Saint Louis.
- This time, they actually mean ALL forces, not just the buildings. You'll
have to hunt down every single unit, including dogs.
3) Don't get Tanya killed.
- If she dies, you fail. There's quite an impressive number of dogs running
around, too, so be careful.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Gather your units and head south-west either on or to the east of the bridge.
When you're slightly below the beacon, turn west and head towards it. Garrison
the civilian building on the top-right corner of the Soviet walls with your
GIs, then have Tanya shoot the barrels near the top-right corner of the walls
to blast a hole in them. It'll take a few of the buildings with it, but not
enough to shut down the Tesla Coils.
Run Tanya above the stadium area, then west towards the remaining pair of power
plants. More troops, dogs, and ore miners are wandering up there, so make sure
you're fast. Detonate both power plants to make the Tesla Coils lose power,
then detonate the beacon. Send Tanya back underneath your garrisoned civilian
building for safe keeping, then scroll to the south-east corner of the map,
where your reinforcements have arrived.
Deploy your MCV, then get your base set up. Once you have a war factory and a
battle lab, you should be able to build Prism Tanks. If you have four or more
ore miners running, you should be able to generate enough money to crank out
twenty or more Prism Tanks in no time, so go ahead and do so.
Take the pile west towards the Soviet base above the stadium and pulverize
everything in the area, including every last unit you can find. Once the
entire city is clean, you'll win the mission.
1) Capture or Destroy any Soviet attempts to replicate our Prism Technology.
- There are two Mayan "temples" on the eastern part of the Soviet base that
have been converted into Soviet versions of Prism Towers. Capture or destroy
both of them to satisfy this objective.
2) Eradicate the Soviet base defending their research site.
- Not only the base, but every single Soviet unit on the map as well.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Take your Seals west towards the spot that's revealed on your radar, where
you'll find some Soviet troops and guard dogs in a small village. Clear them
out to free the GIs and Grizzlies from the fenced areas, then garrison a hut on
the road with six of the GIs. Put the other four and an Engineer into the
chopper that arrives, then head all the way to the extreme north-west corner of
the map, where you'll find a tech airfield. Capture it with the engineer, then
deploy the four GIs next to it for protection.
Send the chopper back to the village and pick up the other four engineers, then
send the chopper east to the water. Park the Grizzlies on the northern part of
the road so they'll pick off the Flak Tracks that continuously roam the area,
which will eventually lead to both of the Grizzlies fully leveling up (which
will be very useful later in the mission).
Take your remaining Seals east towards the water, then have them dive in and
move south. There's a beach area on the far eastern side of the Soviet base,
which is the easiest and safest way to assualt it. Once the Seals have cleared
the beach, land the chopper and get the engineers off of it. When your
paratroop drop is charged, drop them right here with your other units. (You
might want to let it charge two or three times, too, so you have plenty of GIs
for the assault on the base.)
Take a GI and move west, making sure you stay far enough away from the ore
miners to avoid getting killed. Sneak above the wall at the edge of the Soviet
base, where you'll find some barrels. Quickly destroy one of the barrels
before the Flak Track kills you - you'll probably be killed from the resulting
explosion, but it's not really important.
Now that there's a gap in the wall, you can safely send the rest of your troops
into the base. Sneak along the top of the wall just like you did before,
avoiding the guns on the ore miners. Use a Seal to clear out the dogs and
infantry in the area, and have him detonate the first few Soviet buildings you
can reach. Don't detonate the Soviet Prism Tower though - it can be useful to
you later. As you move farther west along the top of the base, you'll find a
large temple. Garrison it with ten GIs, and it'll become a great defensive
asset. Keep the rest of your units safely behind it. Destroy the Soviet Prism
Tower above and to the left of the temple.
By now, your two Grizzlies are probably both fully leveled up, so send them
down towards the top of the Soviet base. Punch a hole in the wall, then shoot
the explosive barrels to clear out another large chunk of the base. Blast
anything else you can safely reach, but avoid confronting the Soviet Rhinos.
They'll tear you to shreds despite your high level. Instead, try to lure the
Rhinos to your garrisoned temple with a GI or a Seal.
South of your Temple, you'll find a pair of ore refineries. Destroy them both,
but leave the construction yard and power plants. Make sure the area is clear,
then send your engineers in. Capture the construction yard and two power
plants, then use the fourth engineer to capture the southern Soviet Prism Tower
clone. Build a barracks immediately, then use Tesla troops along with your
Seals to defend your newly-acquired base.
The Soviets, of course, won't like this. They'll send basically everything
they have at your buildings, so take advantage of this distraction and destroy
their barracks and war factory with one of your Seals or your Grizzlies.
Destroy the remaining buildings and units on the map, and the mission will be
over.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Black Forest, Germany
------------------
1) Ensure the safety of Professor Einstein's laboratory.
Einstein's lab is in the small base in the south-west corner of the map. It's
poorly defended, so you'll need to either reinforce it or prevent any Soviet
forces from reaching it.
2) Destroy all Soviet forces.
- Everything, both units and structures, needs to be destroyed before the
mission will end.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Your base will be attacked fairly hard very soon after the mission starts, so
make sure you're ready to repair buildings as they get hit. Make sure you get
your Rocketeers off of the ground early, since they'll be the easiest way to
take out the hoard of V3 Rockets the Soviets send your way.
Once the rush is destroyed, crank out four or more ore miners. Send the MCV
from your base down to Einstein's area and deploy it, then place a second ore
refinery there and redirect some of your new ore miners to it. You can rake in
money like crazy once you've got the second refinery ready, especially once you
build a Battle Lab and Ore Purifier.
Now that you've got money flowing in faster than you can spend it, start
mass-producing Prism Tanks at your base (build multiple war factories to speed
the process up). When you get twenty or so of them, make your way to the group
of Soviet bases and pulverize the place. Destroy every last Soviet unit and
structure on the map to finish the mission.
- Exactly as it says, you'll need to build a Chronosphere to complete this
part of the mission.
2) Neutralize the Soviet Nuclear threat on Cuba.
- Thankfully, you won't need to completely destroy the Soviet base on Cuba.
All you have to do is destroy the three Nuclear Missile Silos on the island,
which you can do quite easily with three small groups of Prism Tanks and the
Chronosphere.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
This is by far the most difficult mission you've seen so far, so you'll need to
move fast if you want to win it (especially if you want to win before the three
nuclear missiles blast your base into oblivion). Have your dolphins free the
cruise ship, then let your boats sit there for now. Start building a war
factory, a Patriot battery, two Seals, and four Rocketeers. Garrison the two
buildings on the eastern beach with the GIs that start in your base.
Your primary concern early on should be getting four Patriots set up along the
south-western side of your base. If you don't, the dreadnoughts that will
arrive shortly will absolutely decimate your base before you even get started.
While you're dropping those down, grab your northern and southern ore miners
and send them to your main base, then sell both of the other ore refineries as
well as the buildings around them. (Send the GIs that pop out to the nearby
civilian structures, it'll help buy you some time.)
When your war factory is done, build two more ore miners. Send the Seals and
Rocketeers to the southern bridge in your base to defend the attack that comes
from the lower island, then send the Rocketeers to your ore field when they're
done. Terror Drones will attack your miners, so you'll want the Rocketeers
there to defend them.
Next, you'll want to line a row of Prism Towers along the top of your base
while you build a Battle Lab, Ore Purifier, and Chronosphere (make sure you
build plenty of power plants, too). Apocalypse tanks will come in from the
upper bridge, and you'll want the Prism Towers to deal with them quickly.
By the time your Chronosphere is charged, you should have five or more Prism
Tanks ready to shift. Group them tightly together, then select the center one
with the Chronosphere icon to shift them together. Your destination is the
area south-west of the Soviet base, where the barrels are lined up along the
wall. Target the barrels first, then target the closest Nuclear Missile.
Don't expect to get more than one of the silos with only a few Prism Tanks -
you'll have to come back at least one more time, probably two.
Concentrate on defending your base while your Chronosphere recharges, and
continue building more Prism Tanks to shift. When the Chronosphere is ready
again, shift another group of six to the lower-right corner of the Soviet base
(outside the walls, obviously). Target the closest silo, then attempt to get
the third one if possible. If not, repeat the process and return with another
group when the Chronosphere is ready again. This time, approach from the
lower-left, since there should already be a nice clear hole there from your
first attempt. Once all three silos are gone, the mission is over.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Moscow, Russia
------------------
1) Clear the area so Chrono Reinforcements can arrive.
- Detonating the single power plant right next to your starting area will
accomplish this objective. Must've been one hell of a power plant to power
that many Tesla Coils by itself... >_>
2) Eliminate Romanov's Elite Black Guard around the Kremlin.
- Black Guard in the literal sense. All you have to do is destroy the black
units and structures surrounding the Kremlin, though doing that will be pretty
hard unless you destroy at least some of other Soviet stuff in the area first.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
There's nothing you can really do to avoid getting hit by the first nuclear
missile, so don't worry too much about the timer for now. Detonate the power
plant with a Seal, then wait for your reinforcements to arrive. Deploy the MCV
in the fenced area, and use the IFVs to destroy the Tesla Coils around the base
area. Knock down the fence in the north-west corner to free the infantry, too.
Get a power plant and a barracks built before building your ore refinery, and
use the two engineers from the fenced area to capture two of the oil derricks
along the base walls. Build two more engineers to take the other two, and
build six more GIs while you're at it. Send the six from the fenced area to
one of the bunkers on the east entrance of your base.
Here's the secret to surviving this mission - the computer will always target
your war factory with the nuke. As long as you plan ahead and build your war
factory far away from your other buildings, you won't lose much from the nuke
when it finally falls. With that in mind, start building your base. A few
other things to keep in mind for this mission:
- Kirovs. Lots of them. You'll want to keep that pile of IFVs they gave you
positioned in the south corner of your base, between the two oil derricks. You
might also want to consider building some Patriots down there just in case, and
definitely some Prism Towers to fend off the Apocalypse tanks.
- Iron Curtain. It's not nearly as devastating as the nuke, but you should
still be prepared for it. From the computer's perspective, it's most ideal to
use it when they can get a group of their units in it at the same time. From
your perspective, then, it becomes a good idea to stop groups of units from
reaching your base (since they tend to only use it when they have forces at
your base). If the countdown is reaching zero, watch out for groups of units
headed your way, and blast them before they reach you. Let one unit reach the
base, and the computer might waste it on it.
- Oil derricks. They'll be your primary source of income, so protect them at
all costs. Once you get going in the mission, you should consider capturing
some of the ones outside your base as well to increase your funds.
With those things in mind, protect your base while you build up your tech.
When your Chronosphere and Lightning Storm are both ready, launch the Lightning
Storm at the Nuclear Missile Silo, then Chronoshift a group of Prism Tanks next
to the silo to finish it off. Repeat the process for the Iron Curtain.
With those out of the way, you're free to crank out Prism Tanks and Mirage
Tanks. Remember - you don't need to destroy every Soviet unit on the map to
finish the mission, just the black units around the Kremlin. Punch a hole
through the Soviet lines until you reach the fort around the Kremlin, but be
careful when you attack the Black Guard. Those fully leveled Apocalypse tanks
can cause some serious damage.
Luckily, the computer's not very smart - it won't fire at stationary Mirage
tanks. Place some of them between your prism tanks and the apocalypse tanks,
fire once with a prism tank, then retreat the prism tanks. The apocalypse
tanks will chase them, but they'll be gunned down by the Mirage tanks.
Use your Mirage Tanks to finish clearing out the area around the Kremlin. If
you use Prism Tanks, you run the risk of accidentally destroying the Kremlin,
which you don't want to do.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Washington DC
------------------
1) Destroy the Pentagon.
- This will be easier than you think - as soon as you breach the outer ring of
defenses, massive Soviet reinforcements will arrive to help you destroy the
building.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
You'll need to build a power plant, barracks, and an ore refinery (optional,
but highly recommended), then build a few Engineers. Gather your Conscripts
and head north, then use an Engineer to fix the damaged bridge. Flatten the
small American base here to gain free experience with your Conscripts, then fix
the next bridge and cross into the larger American base.
Destroy everything here to gain more free experience, then use one of the
Engineers to capture the airfield. Use the other one to fix the bridge to the
upper-left of the base, then move a unit towards the water to receive some
reinforcements - four Rhino tanks.
Send the Rhinos down to the base, then turn north and cross the bridge to the
Pentagon. Destroy the pill boxes with either the Rhinos or Conscripts, and
make your way closer to the Pentagon. Reinforcements will arrive, which will
make the destruction of the building much easier. Simply highlight a group of
Rhinos and target each section of the building until they're all destroyed.
- Once your forces exit the transports, use them to level the Allied base in
the area using the conveniently-placed barrels. Deploy your MCV, then start
building your base.
2) Destroy all enemy forces.
- Every single Allied unit on the map needs to be gone before the mission will
be complete.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
The transports will dump your units onto the shore for you. Use them to deal
with the Grizzlies in the area, then clean out the Allied structures and deploy
your MCV. Get an ore refinery running as close to the northern ore field as
possible, then concentrate on getting a few more ore miners. You'll also want
to get a pair of Engineers into the oil derricks on the top of the screen near
the middle of the map.
Grizzlies will attack your base constantly, so build a few more Rhinos before
you start cranking out submarines (you'll want about ten of them altogether).
When the Soviet Dreadnought retreats, you'll receive some reinforcement subs.
Add these to your pile, then head south and destroy the Allied Destroyer fleet.
Concentrate on Rhinos after that, and simply crush the Allied base to the
south once you get twenty or so of them. A few more conveniet barrels will
make things go a little faster, too, so don't forget to target them.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: New York City
------------------
1) Capture the American Battle Lab.
- You need to get an Engineer into the Battle Lab, which will result in it
being turned into the Psychic Beacon. Don't let the lab get destroyed.
2) Build and defend a Psychic Beacon.
- It'll build automatically once you capture the Battle Lab, then hoards of
Allied troops will assault your position in an attempt to destroy the beacon
before it can be used. Make sure you build about ten Flak troopers and place
them around the Battle Lab before you take it - otherwise, pesky Rocketeers
will shred it rather quickly. You'll also want to make sure you have a healthy
supply of Rhinos to deal with the onslaught of Grizzles and IFVs that attack.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Build another power plant all the way on the south edge of your base area.
This will allow you to place an ore refinery near the southern ore field,
allowing for faster cash collection. Get a second one going by the ore field
in your base while you build a trio of Engineers to take the oil derricks to
the east. Stock the building just north of the oil derricks with Conscripts to
defend the derricks and the entrance to your base.
You'll be given some psychic commandos, but they're not too effective on their
own. Build several V3 Rockets to go with them, then spam Rhinos. Move the
commandos through the city towards the Battle Lab, carefully looking ahead to
see pill boxes and garrisoned buildings (which your V3 Rockets will turn to
dust easily). The commandos can be used to take control of nearby units, so
use them to handle the infantry and IFVs you encounter along the way.
When you have about twenty or so Rhinos, build a Flak Track and stick a few
Engineers in it, then send it with the Rhinos to assault the base near the
World Trade Center towers. Don't destroy the base, though - just destroy the
units and defensive structures in it. Capture the barracks with an Engineer,
set it to Primary, and build a dozen or so Flak troopers. Rocketeers are going
to attack, and you'll want to be well-prepared.
Make sure your Rhinos are in position just barely south of the base, then
capture the Battle Lab with an Engineer. You'll now be tasked with defending
the beacon until it has time to initiate, so be alert. Rocketeers should be
the first wave, but your Flak troopers will shred them easily. Next will come
a stream of GIs, Grizzlies, and IFVs from the west and the south. Use your
Grizzlies to stall them for a few minutes, which is all you really need - it
doesn't take long for the beacon to activate, and the mission is over once it
does regardless of the condition of your army.
- Deploy your MCV and get an ore refinery running, then build a barracks.
Fill both of the houses on the east side of your base with Conscripts, then get
a pile of ten or so Flak troopers and have them stand around the lighthouse to
defend against enemy aircraft.
2) Destroy all enemy forces.
- The Allied base will be shown on your radar once it appears. Destroy every
structure and unit over there, including boats, to finish the mission.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
The Allied navy that will arrive when the countdown reaches zero isn't really a
naval threat - it just drops troops east of your base. Therefore, don't bother
trying to crank out a lot of submarines before the counter reaches zero.
Instead, get a ore refinery running, then build a barracks and train ten
Conscripts, which you should use to garrison the two buildings on the east side
of your base. Also build ten Flak troopers, and have them crowd around the
middle of your base (probably near the lighthouse). They'll make short work of
those pesky Allied planes.
Once you have a war factory running, make sure you build a few more ore miners.
After that, build a group of six or more submarines and four transports. Load
one transport full of engineers, one full of Flak troopers, and two full of
Rhino tanks. Begin the slow journey to the other side of the ocean with the
subs and transports, but don't land right away. Use the subs to clear out the
Allied destroyers first, and destroy the Allied naval yard if they've built one
already.
Make sure you have a war factory and a Flak Cannon ready to be placed, then
land the Rhinos, Flak troopers, and engineers just barely south-west of the
Allied construction yard. Clear the GIs out with the Rhinos, and let the Flak
troopers handle the Rocketeers while your engineers capture the construction
yard and any other buildings they can live long enough to reach.
Now that you have control of the construction yard, you can use it to place the
war factory and flak cannon you already have built. Do so, then set the war
factory to primary and start cranking out more Rhinos. Build sentry guns and
more flak cannons if necessary, but you probably won't need them. The rest of
the Allied base will fall easily from your Rhino group. Hunt down every enemy
unit on the map, including ore miners and boats, and the mission will be over.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Paris, France
------------------
1) Energize the PARIS TOWER with 3 TESLA TROOPERS.
- When you have Tesla Troopers standing close enough to a Tesla Coil, they use
their Tesla Suits to give the coil additional power. The same premise applies
for the Paris Tower, only on a much, much larger scale.
2) Defend the PARIS TOWER from Allied attack.
- The Paris Tower is pretty strong... you can let them sit there and pound on
it for several minutes if you'd like, but don't let it get destroyed.
3) Defeat all remaining Allied troops.
- I'm not sure what exactly qualifies as defeating all remaining Allied troops
in this mission, since there were clearly units and structures left when this
objective was complete... Basically, if you manage to charge the tower, you'll
win the mission.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Your first objective should be to clear a path to the west and capture the oil
derrick there. Use a group of five Conscripts to garrison houses along the
way, wiping out GIs and pill boxes. You can also attach bombs to the trucks
moving through the city with your Crazy Ivan, but the timing can be a little
tricky.
Tesla Troopers are your best friends in this mission, so once you have control
of the derrick, start training as many of them as possible. Move north-west
from the oil derrick and clear the Allied units from the field, then approach
the water to receive some reinforcements. Have the the transport move north
through the water, then land above the tower to find a Flak Track with more
reinforcements.
When you're ready, gather your forces at the south-west corner of the the walls
surrounding the tower. Use Conscripts to enter buildings close to the pill
boxes to do as much damage to them as possible, then finish them off with Tesla
Troopers if necessary. Approach the tower when you're ready, and get your
Tesla Troopers as close to it as possible to charge it. Now just let it work
its magic, and the mission should end on its own. If not, start hunting down
remaining units and structures on the map.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Pearl Harbor, Hawaii
------------------
1) Establish a base in the Hawaiian Islands.
- This will be complete as soon as you deploy your MCV.
2) Destroy the Allied Navy.
- Destroy the Korean reinforcement fleet along with the American boats in
Pearl Harbor. You don't need to destroy any of the land forces, nor do you
need to destroy the shipyards. You don't have to destroy the coast guard boats
on the far western side of the map, either.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Deploy your MCV, then immediately build a barracks. Stick your Conscripts back
into one of the transports, then move it west until you find a tiny island with
a bunker on it. Make the Conscripts garrison the bunker, and a crate of money
will appear on the island. Grab it, then train an engineer and stick him in
the second transport. Send it all the way to the south-west corner of the map.
Build a standard base as fast as you can, focusing on getting a war factory and
radar station, then placing some Tesla Coils near the top of your base. When
the Engineer reaches the island in the south-east, have him take control of the
airfield, then scout the island for crates with the transport (there should be
four money crates on the island). The Allies will try to take the island back,
but a single Tesla Coil above the airfield will stop them. Or you can just let
them take it, it doesn't really matter once you have the money crates.
Meanwhile, build a pair of naval yards at your base, then pump out submarines
as fast as you can. Park your existing boats on the left side of your
garrisoned bunker - the Korean fleet will try to move right through here later.
Make sure you send your reinforcement boats to the same spot, and send any new
boats that you build there as well. When the Koreans arrive, slaughter them
all before they can make it to Pearl Harbor.
Once they're gone, turn westward and scout ahead with your Sea Scorpions. When
you encounter a pair of Aegis Cruisers on the southern edge of the island, take
care of them with your subs. The entrance to Pearl Harbor is just barely west
of their location, so carefully edge that way with the Sea Scorpions. Two
Prism Towers are guarding the entrance, so as soon as you can see them, target
them both with your Dreadnoughts.
Enter the harbor with the submarines and the Sea Scorpions now, and destroy
anything that moves (target the destroyers first, of course). Use the
Dreadnoughts to hit stationary boats, like the aircraft carriers, before they
can move. Once every boat in the harbor is destroyed, you'll win the mission.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Ural Mountains, Russia
------------------
1) Defend your Battle Lab at all costs.
- If it gets destroyed or captured at all, you lose instantly. I highly,
highly suggest surrounding it with walls right off the bat to prevent engineers
from snaking it out from under you.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Train four Engineers as you build a second power plant, and build walls around
the Battle Lab. Build an ore refinery at the top of your base, then build a
pair of Flak Cannons - one on the right of the Battle Lab, and one south of the
construction yard. When the Engineers are ready, send them east all the way to
edge of the map. You'll find three oil derricks and a repair bay over there,
so capture them all.
Build plenty of power plants, a war factory, and a radar station, then start
cranking out Apocalypse tanks as fast as possible. You'll want at least two of
them at all three entrances to your base before the third wave arrives, and
you'll want considerably more of them at all three entrances later. Luckilly,
you can find sometimes get a money crate if you destroy the propaganda truck in
the village to the north-west, and there're always two money crates in the
Allied camp to the south-east if you destroy the tents. You'll definitely want
to grab those as early as possible. Allied convoy trucks also occasionally
run from the north to the south side of the map on the road east of your base,
and if you intercept them, you can find more crates.
As I mentioned earlier, the key to this mission is the Apocalypse tank. Build
them constantly, don't even worry about base defense. Tesla Coils are
worthless against Prism Tanks, which is by far the biggest threat to your base.
When possible, I suggest defending the upper-right corner of your base from the
forest on the other side of the hills, so that the Prism Tanks won't even get
the chance to take a shot at your Battle Lab.
Sit tight with your Apocalypse pile and crush wave after wave of Allied units,
and the battle will eventually end on its own.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Washington DC
------------------
1) Capture the White House.
- Get an Engineer in there, and the mission's over. Easy enough, eh?
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Move your units out of the way, then deploy your MCV. Build your base as
usual, and stick your Conscripts in the bunker above and to the right of your
base for a little defense. Paratroopers will land all over the place, but your
Desolators will make short work of them - just move one nearby and deploy it,
but make sure your vehicles and other infantry are far, far away.
Move one of your Apocalypse tanks north to the Lincoln Memorial and destroy it
to find some crates, then continue bulding your base. You'll want to build a
considerable pile of Apocalypse tanks, which you'll want to keep near the
bridge on the east side of your base to fend of Rhino attacks.
When you have six or so Apocalypse tanks ready, head east and make raids on the
enemy ore refineries and ore miners. Watch out for Terror Drones though, or
you'll lose your tanks left and right. You can destroy other monuments and
important buildings in the area to get more quick money, but don't worry about
destroying the southern emeny base. Instead, attack the base around the White
House with everything you've got. Destroy it, then get an Engineer in the
White House to end the mission.

Mission Objectives Location: San Antonio, Texas
------------------
1) Use Mind-Control to capture the President.
- You have to take control of him (he's standing right below the limo) with
one of your Psi-Ops guys. As you'll probably notice, the base is crawling with
dogs, and it's surrounded by Prism Towers, so you'll need to deal with both of
those threats to reach the president.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
By the time you get control of your units, one of them will already have
control of an IFV, which is good. Set it aside along with the Psi-Ops guy that
took it, and send the second Psi-Ops guy up to the left side of the small
Allied base. Take control of the left GI from the safety of the other side of
the wall, then take control of the second GI when the first one dies. Send the
second one to his untimely death at the Alamo, then take each of the Engineers
and capture both buildings. Build two Spies.
Send all of your units down the left side of the map now, avoiding the pesky
armed Texans (or just killing them). Keep as far away from the Prism Towers as
possible, and make your way to the south end of the map, directly below the
base. Leave your infantry here, but send the IFV east. See the small encased
area with the repair bay? Blast the gate open with the IFV, then destroy all
of the trucks in there. Three have money, one has a firepower upgrade, one has
an armor upgrade, and one has a veterancy upgrade. You'll now have a super-IFV
capable of causing some serious destruction, so send it north to the small base
there.
Destroy the pill boxes, then destroy the GIs, patriot, Grizzly, and NightHawk.
Don't kill the Sniper, though. Send the super-IFV back down to the rest of
your units (make sure you stay away from the Prism Towers), then send the
Psi-Ops guy that's still free up the right side of the screen. Carefully
approach the sniper from the right side of the small base, and take control of
him from the safety of the other side of the wall.
Use the sniper to pick off the dogs and GIs on patrol around the base, and use
him to pick off the dogs and Seals at both entrances. Meanwhile, blow a hole
in the center of the south wall with your super-IFV, then carefully move it all
the way around the base to the very top (where you should now have your sniper
waiting). Blast a hole in the center of the wall on the top, too.
If you're sure there aren't any dogs left, send one of your spies into a power
plant from the hole you made in the south wall. The base will go low power,
so use this time to snipe the rest of the infantry in the base with your
sniper. Make sure you keep very tight control of him though, or he'll shoot
the president, which will end the game instantly. (Also note that you have to
select a spy, then target an enemy unit to get it to disguise itself. If not,
he'll be seen by any enemy unit.)
Now only the president and maybe some Grizzlies should be left in the base.
Send the second spy into a power plant once the power comes back online, then
send a Psi-Ops guy in after him to take control of the president, ending the
mission.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: US Virgin Islands
------------------
1) Capture the American Battle Lab to locate the Weather Control Device.
- Yeah, get an Engineer in there. Pretty standard. I suggest you wait until
your nuke is ready to launch, so you can end the mission immediately after you
take the Battle Lab.
2) Destroy the Weather Control Device.
- A single nuke dropped dead-center on top of it will completely destroy it,
so I suggest you wait until the nuke is ready to launch before you capture the
Battle Lab.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Deploy your MCV and put the Engineer back inside a transport. Send him east
along the bottom of the screen until you find an island covered in gems, then
capture the repair bay there and place your first ore refinery there. Build a
Tesla Coil while you're at it, and place in between the power plant and radar
station. This is also a good spot to park your Rhinos and Conscripts.
Get a second ore refinery going to the left of your MCV, and build several Flak
Cannons. Stick the first one on the ridge north of the repair bay above your
radar station, then stick one next to the radar station. The others should be
as far to the west of your base as possible.
Now that you're set defensively, get your war factory and battle lab going,
then get a nuclear missile silo and a naval yard. Crank out submarines and
Apocalypse tanks after you've built a pair of ore miners. After you have ten
or so submarines, build six or so Sea Scorpions and two Dreadnoughts. Move
your navy north and then east now, leading with the submarines with the Sea
Scorpions close behind.
Slice your way through the Allied navy until you reach the landing zone, then
take care of the Allied naval yard there. Use the Dreadnoughts to take out the
Prism Towers, Patriots, and pill boxes, as well as any units that might still
be in the area. Load about ten Apocalypse tanks into transports and land them
on the beach when you're ready. (Oh, and if your nuclear missile is ready
before you're ready to land, use it to destroy as much of the base in front of
the Battle Lab as possible, but be very careful not to destroy the lab.)
The Apocalypse tanks will be able to handle the Allied base easily, so clear it
out. Send an Engineer over on a transport once the area is free of Allied
forces, and capture the Battle Lab when your nuclear missile is ready to drop.
When the Battle Lab reveals the location of the Weather Control Device, drop
your nuclear missile right on top of it, and the mission will be over.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Moscow, Russia
------------------
1) Destroy Yuri's headquarters - The Kremlin.
- For reason's you'll soon discover, destroying the Kremlin won't be an easy
task. The fastest way is to just solidify your base, then wait for your
nuclear missile to charge twice. You can also spam Kirovs, but the formidable
amount of Flak Cannons around the Kremlin will make that a slow and painful
process.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
If you're playing this on Hard mode, you're in for perhaps the most annoying
fight in the entire game. I suggest you take a defensive route through this
mission, then use your nuclear missile to finish off the Kremlin (it'll take
two hits).
Immediately build a power plant and an ore refinery, and send your tanks north
while the ore refinery is building. Destroy the Tesla Coil, then destroy the
two flak cannons. With that threat eliminated, you can set up your primary
defense for the early part of the mission - move your two Kirovs to the east,
then have them force-fire (control key) at the ground between the first house
you see and the cliff directly above that house. The bombs will slaughter any
infantry that try to make their way to your base, and they'll also take out
some of the terror drones and other vehicles.
Meanwhile, send your Conscripts north-west and garrison all of the houses on
that side of the map. (Don't go too far north, or you'll get hit by the Tesla
Coils on the cliffs.) Continue building your base to reach up to these houses,
since you'll want to be able to build Tesla Coils up here later. Get an
Engineer in the oil derrick as soon as possible, and then start spamming Tesla
Coils on the north-east side of the oil derrick.
The trick to this mission is surviving the iron curtain. The worst thing Yuri
can do is iron curtain a group of terror drones, which can slaughter your ore
miners. If you can destroy everything before it gets close to your base,
though, Yuri tends to either hold on to the iron curtain or use it on something
else.
As you start to accumulate more and more money, you should start upping your
Kirov count. As soon as one of the original two completely levels up, replace
it with a new one and move the fully leveled one to your western defenses. I
suggest you repeat this process until you have six fully leveled up Kirovs.
Meanwhile, concentrate on building Tesla Coils, manning them with Tesla
Troopers, and surrounding them with walls. When you have four or five in the
north-west, concentrate on Flak Cannons.
Why? As soon as you build your nuclear missile, Yuri's going to send waves of
Kirovs at your base - three from the west and three from the east. You'll need
about ten flak cannons in the north-west by the oil derrick to stop the Kirovs
before they reach your base, and another ten on the eastern side of your base
to stop the other group. You can also use Apocalypse Tanks if you'd like,
since their missiles are just as effective (if not more effective) than flak
cannons.
Either way, when you have the flak cannons/Apocalypse Tanks ready, deploy the
nuclear missile. Let it charge twice, and use it on the Kremlin both times to
end the mission without forcing your way through the Soviet defenses.
------------------
Mission Objectives Location: Point Hope, Alaska
------------------
1) Destroy the Chronosphere.
- Unfortunately, the Chronosphere won't be easy to reach. It's protected by
hills, walls, tons of Prism Towers, and even more Patriot batteries. A Kirov
swarm sent from the beach up the hill to the west is your best bet, but you'll
need about ten of them just to live long enough to see the Chronosphere.
-----------
Walkthrough
-----------
Your primary concern should be to defend your base from chronosphere attacks.
The first will be a group of IFVs on the right side of your ore field, the
second will be a group of Grizzlies above your radar station. They arrive
fast, too, so don't waste any time. Start building an ore refinery as soon as
the mission starts, and start building a Tesla Coil. Of course, Tesla Coils
alone won't be enough to stop the first two attacks, so train four Crazy Ivans
too.
Position the Ivans near where the chrono attacks are going to appear, then put
them on guard mode. The result is devastating, but you'll still want as many
Tesla Coils as possible (I can usually get three up before the tanks arrive).
It's also a good idea to man each Tesla Coil with a pair of Tesla Troopers, so
they can wipe out a vehicle in a single shot.
You'll also want several flak cannons, at least one in the lower-left of your
base and at least one more in the upper-left. A fourth Tesla Coil in the very
bottom-left of your base is also a must, since a transport full of Seals will
arrive eventually. You'll also want a Yuri at the top or your ore field,
which you can use to take control of the aircraft carrier that's going to be
chronoshifted there after the transport arrives.
After the carrier arrives, things will calm down in your base. You'll still
need some fairly strong anti-aircraft defense around your ore field, but other
than that, concentrate on building your base. When you have a naval yard,
build six subs, four Sea Scorpions, and a pair of Dreadnoughts to go with your
carrier. Head west slowly, keeping the Scorpions close to the subs as you
wipe out the Allied Destroyers and Cruisers around both naval yards.
Use the carrier and Dreadnoughts to flatten the Allied defenses on the beach,
then load six or so Apocalypse Tanks into transports and land on the beach.
Use them to clear anything that's left, then land an MCV on the beach and start
building a second base. Get some flak cannons first, then a war factory. Get
a few more Apocalypse Tanks to defend your base, then begin cranking out a
ridiculous number of Kirovs.
Flatten the nearby Allied building with your Apocalypse Tanks, but be very
careful around the cliffs - Prism Towers will devastate your tanks if you get
too close. Also, watch out for Mirage Tanks near the Allied ore refinery.
Those thing can shred your Apocalypse Tanks in no time.
The Allies will use the Chronosphere to make groups of IFVs appear in the ore
field to the west, so keep your Apocalypse Tanks ready. They'll also send down
groups of Prism Tanks from the north, so make sure you keep an eye out. When
you've got ten or more Kirovs (the more the better), send them west over the
cliffs and attack the Allied base. If you attack at the very bottom, you
should be able to take out the Patriots as they become visible, which should
give you a chance to rebuild your health bars.
Of course, if you have a ton of Kirovs, you can just ignore the Patriots and
rush straight at the Chronosphere. Either way, destroy it, and the mission's
over.

| Aircraft Carrier |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 2000 | Allied Battle Lab | Allied Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Carriers have three small planes that will fire missiles at targets. The |
|planes have almost no armor though, so you'll either need to eliminate |
|anti-aircraft weaponry before attacking or use overwhelming numbers to be |
|effective. The good news is that the planes automatically regenerate if they|
|get destroyed, so you won't have to keep going back to the shipyard or |
|anything like that. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| Allied | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Construction Vehicle |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 3000 | Allied Repair Depot | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|More commonly known as the MCV (Mobile Construction Vehicle). When deployed,|
|the Allied MCV becomes an Allied Construction Yard, allowing you to place new|
|buildings in new areas. Depending on whether you're playing with repacks on |
|or not, it's also possible to undeploy, move, and redeploy a construction |
|yard. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Amphibious Transport |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 900 | Allied Shipyard | Allied Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|These things can drive over land or water. They can hold several units, |
|though how many of each unit they can carry depends on the unit. Some units,|
|like MCVs, take a lot more space than an infantry unit does. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Attack Dog |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 200 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Attack Dogs can detect enemy spies even while they're disguised. A single |
|bite from an Attack Dog is lethal to infantry, but they are also very weak. |
|You'll need to either catch the enemy by surprise or use overwhelming numbers|
|if you want to use dogs successfully. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Black Eagle |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1200 | Air Force Command HQ | AF Command HQ |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|*Korea only. |
| |
|This will replace the Harrier in your build list. It's just a more powerful |
|version of the Harrier... unfortunately, you'll still need five to take care|
|of large buildings like the Chronosphere. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Chrono Commando |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 2000 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|This is the result of getting an Allied Spy into an Allied Battle Lab. Not |
|only can these guys chronoshift like a Legionnaire, but they're also armed |
|like a Seal. Their machine gun will make short work of infantry, and their |
|detonation ability will instantly destroy buildings. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Chrono Legionnaire |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1500 | Allied Battle Lab | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Chrono Legionnaires can chronoshift from place to place, but it takes longer |
|if the distance is longer. They use chrono weapons that slowly erase a |
|target from time, and the target will be inactive while under attack. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Chrono Miner |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1400 | Allied Ore Refinery | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Chrono Miners are the Allied ore collector. They drive to ore fields and |
|collect ore, then utilize their chronoshifting ability to shift back to the |
|refinery. Since they aren't armed, Chrono Miners are vulnerable to any |
|attacks. Terror Drones are especially dangerous, but thankfully, terror |
|drones are ejected once the Chrono Miner shifts. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Destroyer |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | Allied Shipyard | Allied Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|The primary use of the Destroyer is to fight Soviet submarines via the small |
|plane mounted on the Destroyer, but they're also armed with a small main gun |
|that can be used to shell land or water targets. Unfortunately, since the |
|anti-submarine planes can be shot down by flak from Scorpions, Destroyers can|
|be rendered almost completely worthless if the enemy is fairly intelligent. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Dolphin |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 500 | Allied Battle Lab | Allied Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Dolphins are the answer to Soviet attack squids. The sonic weapon they carry|
|on their backs will knock squids off of boats, and it'll also damage boats |
|and shipyards. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Engineer |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 500 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Engineers can repair damaged structures and take control of enemy buildings. |
|Engineers can even repair destroyed bridges if you get them inside the repair|
|hut. If placed inside an IFV, the IFV will be able to repair vehicles. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| GI |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 200 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|The GI is the basic infantry unit for the Allies. He's armed with a machine |
|gun that can do decent damage to infantry, vehicles, and buildings. They can|
|also be deployed in sand bags to increase their attack power and range. Most|
|importantly, they can garrison civilian buildings and bunkers, making them |
|even more powerful. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Grizzly Battle Tank |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 700 | War Factory | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|These are basic tanks with a single turret. They can do decent damage, but |
|they die easily against just about anything. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Harrier |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1200 | Air Force Command HQ | AF Command HQ |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Four Harriers can be built on each Air Force Command HQ you have. Though |
|they're rather poorly armored, Harriers have decent firepower. If you can |
|get them in big enough groups, they can destroy anything (nine or sometimes |
|ten will destroy a Construction Yard). |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| IFV |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 600 | War Factory | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Infantry Fighting Vehicles have a rocket weapon by default, which can be used|
|on ground or air targets. As the name suggests, however, they can hold an |
|infantry unit, and what unit they happen to be holding determines what |
|abilities the vehicle will have. The most noteworthy use is to put an |
|Engineer in one, which will transform it into a mobile repair vehicle. A |
|Sniper is also a good choice, since it will have insane range and speed |
|compared to a regular sniper. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Mirage Tank |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | Allied Battle Lab | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Mirage Tanks look like trees to your enemies, which allows you to ambush them|
|if they're not paying attention. The powerful weapon mounted on them will |
|kill infantry instantly, and it's fairly effective against vehicles. Get |
|enough of them together, and they can be quite destructive. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| NightHawk Transport |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | War Factory | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|NightHawk's are unarmed transport helicopters capable of holding five |
|infantry units. They don't show up on radar, but they can still be shot down|
|by anti-aircraft fire. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Prism Tank |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1200 | Allied Battle Lab | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Prism Tanks fire beams of light energy just like Prism Towers. Though they |
|have fairly weak armor, their ridiculous firepower more than makes up for it.|
|A small group of these things will shred anything in a matter of seconds. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Psi Commando |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|This is the result of getting an Allied Spy into a Soviet Battle Lab. The |
|Psi Commando is a mix between a Yuri Clone and a Seal - he still has Yuri's |
|mind control ability, but he can also detonate buildings. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Rocketeer |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 600 | Air Force Command HQ | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Rocketeers are infantry with jetpacks. They are vulnerable to anti-aircraft |
|weapons, but they can cause a great deal of damage to units or buildings if |
|they're uncontested. Rocketeers can also shoot down missiles (like V3 or |
|Dreadnought rockets). |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Sniper |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 600 | Airforce Command HQ | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|*Britain only. |
| |
|Snipers are armed with a very powerful rifle that will kill infantry in a |
|single hit, and they also have incredibly long range (especially when leveled|
|up). A sniper in an IFV is unbelievably effective. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Spy |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | Allied Battle Lab | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Spies can be disguised as enemy infantry units, which will fool the enemy |
|into thinking the Spy is one of their own units (in theory, anyway). Dogs |
|can still tell it's a Spy, though, so watch out for them. So what's the |
|point in having a Spy? Well, get him into an enemy building, and you can get|
|the following results: |
| |
|Barracks - Most of your infantry units are produced as Veterans. |
|War Factory - Most of your War Factory vehicles are produced as Veterans. |
|Power Plant - The enemy will be low power for about one minute. |
|Radar - The enemy's shroud will be reset. |
|Ore Refinery - You'll steal some credits from the enemy. |
|Battle Lab - You'll be able to build a new unit with captured technology. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Tank Destroyer |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 900 | Airforce Command HQ | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|*Germany only. |
| |
|The Tank Destroyer is a vehicle with a large gun mounted on it that's |
|specifically designed to destroy vehicles. A few shots from one of these |
|will shred any vehicle (including boats), especially if it's leveled up |
|first. The down side is that they're almost completely useless against |
|infantry and buildings. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Tanya |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | Allied Battle Lab | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Tanya is the Allied hero unit. She's armed with very powerful handguns that |
|will make short work of infantry units, she can swim, she can detonate boats |
|in the water, and she can detonate buildings. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Amphibious Transport |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 900 | Soviet Shipyard | Soviet Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|These things can drive over land or water. They can hold several units, |
|though how many of each unit they can carry depends on the unit. Some units,|
|like MCVs, take a lot more space than an infantry unit does. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Apocalypse Tank |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1750 | Soviet Battle Lab | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|These double-barreled heavy tanks are also armed with rocket small surface to|
|air rockets, making them excellent against both air and ground targets. They|
|also have much more armor than a Rhino, and they slowly heal repair after |
|taking damage. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Attack Dog |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 200 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Attack Dogs can detect enemy spies even while they're disguised. A single |
|bite from an Attack Dog is lethal to infantry, but they are also very weak. |
|You'll need to either catch the enemy by surprise or use overwhelming numbers|
|if you want to use dogs successfully. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Chrono Ivan |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|It's not likely that you'll ever see one of these, but it's the result of |
|playing a Soviet, capturing the necessary buildings to build a Spy, then |
|infiltrating an Allied Battle Lab with it. (You'll also be given the Chrono |
|Commando unit - see the Allied Units section for details on that.) Chrono |
|Ivans have the same abilities of a regular Crazy Ivan, except they move by |
|chronoshifting like a Chrono Legionnaire. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Conscript |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 100 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|The Conscript is the basic Soviet infantry unit. Unlike the GI, Conscripts |
|don't have the delpoy option. They can still garrison buildings, though. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Crazy Ivan |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 600 | Radar Tower | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Crazy Ivan carries explosive charges with him, which he can place on units |
|and vehicles, both friend and foe. The charges detonate after a certain |
|amount of time, causing a decent amount of damage. Be careful with these if |
|they're sitting in your base - a stray enemy unit could wind up getting a |
|bomb stuck to it on accident, which could end up costing you a few units, |
|buildings, or both. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Demolition Truck |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1500 | Radar Tower | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|These trucks can be rammed into targets, at which time they'll explode and |
|damage anything within a small radius. Unfortunately, the blast isn't strong|
|enough to be worth your effort in most cases. |
| |
|*Libya only. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Desolator |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 600 | Radar Tower | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Armed with a toxic rifle weapon, Desolators can slaughter infantry easily. |
|They can also be deployed in an area, causing them to infect the ground with |
|radiation, which will slaughter infantry anywhere nearby. |
| |
|*Iraq only. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Dreadnought |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 2000 | Soviet Battle Lab | Soviet Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Dreadnoughts are large ships armed with dual rockets similar to the V3 |
|Launcher. The rockets are vulnerable to anti-aircraft fire though, so you'll|
|need to attack with several of them at once if you want to assault a well |
|defended base or a well defended naval group. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Engineer |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 500 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Engineers can repair damaged structures and take control of enemy buildings. |
|Engineers can even repair destroyed bridges if you get them inside one of the|
|bridge's repair huts. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Flak Track |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 500 | War Factory | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Flack Tracks have a flak cannon mounted on them, allowing them to fire flak |
|bursts at enemy aircraft. Unlike stationary Flak Cannons, Flak Tracks can |
|also shoot at ground targets, though the flak won't do much damage to them. |
|Flak Tracks can also hold five infantry units, allowing them to serve as an |
|APC. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Flak Trooper |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 300 | Radar Tower | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|These are Conscripts armed with small flak guns that can shoot ground or air |
|targets. They're fairly effective against air targets, but attacking other |
|units or structures with them is pretty much a waste of time. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Giant Squid |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | Soviet Battle Lab | Soviet Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Heh. Giant Squids attack themselves to an enemy ship and slowly crush it. |
|Once attached, the only way for the enemy to remove the squid is to either |
|hit it with a Dolphin's sonic attack or destroy the squid (and usually the |
|ship along with it). |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Kirov Airship |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 2000 | Soviet Battle Lab | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Kirovs are large blimps armed with extremely powerful bombs. Fly over a |
|a target, and you'll be able to demolish it in a matter of seconds. The down|
|side is that they're painfully slow, but their insane armor more than makes |
|up for that. These will slowly repair themselves if they're damaged, too. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Rhino Heavy Tank |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 900 | War Factory | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Rhino Heavy Tanks are armed with a single turret that can deal good damage to|
|vehicles and buildings, though they aren't as effective against infantry. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Sea Scorpion |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 600 | Radar Tower | Soviet Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Sea Scorpions are tiny boats with a flak cannon mounted on them. They can |
|shoot at land, air, and water targets, though they're far more effective |
|against air targets than they are against land or water targets. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| Soviet | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Construction Vehicle |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 3000 | Soviet Repair Depot | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|More commonly known as the MCV (Mobile Construction Vehicle). When deployed,|
|the Soviet MCV becomes a Soviet Construction Yard, allowing you to place new |
|buildings in new areas. Depending on whether you're playing with repacks on |
|or not, it's also possible to undeploy, move, and redeploy a construction |
|yard. Having more than one Construction Yard allows you to build buildings |
|faster. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Terror Drone |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 500 | War Factory | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Terror Drones are small machines that look like spiders. They crawl inside |
|vehicles and slowly destroy them from the inside, and they can also instantly|
|kill infantry by "biting" them like an attack dog. Repair bays and chrono |
|shifting are the only two ways to remove one from a vehicle (as far as I |
|know, anyway...). These things are also incredibly fast, which makes them |
|excellent scouts. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Terrorist |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 200 | Radar Tower | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Terrorists simply detonate on whatever you tell them to detonate on. They |
|actually have some decent firepower, too, which makes them well worth the two|
|hundred credits. |
| |
|*Cuba only. |

=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Tesla Tank |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1200 | Radar Tower | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Poor armor and not exactly the strongest of attacks... these things aren't |
|very useful most of the time. Their only saving grace is their ability to |
|shoot over walls. |
| |
|*Russia Only |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Tesla Trooper |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 500 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|As the name suggests, these are infantry with small Tesla units capable of |
|shocking things from a small distance. They can also charge Tesla Coils if |
|they're standing close enough to one, which will increase their range and |
|attack power (and allow them to function even if your base is low power). |
|Tesla Troopers also can't be squished by vehicles, which makes them very |
|effective against most vehicles. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Typhoon Attack Sub |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1000 | Soviet Shipyard | Soviet Shipyard |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Typhoons are your primary naval weapon as the Soviets. Their torpedoes can |
|slaughter ships, though they're highly vulnerable to basically everything |
|once they give up their location. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| V3 Launcher |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 800 | Radar Tower | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|V3 Launchers are mobile rocket launchers. Though slow and poorly armored, |
|their rockets are absolutely devastating and have insane range. The rockets |
|are vulnerable to anti-aircraft fire though, so you'll need to bring along a |
|good number of Launchers if you intend to assault a well defended base with |
|them. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| War Miner |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1400 | Soviet Ore Refinery | War Factory |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|War Miners are your ore collection unit as the Soviets. They'll gather ore |
|from fields and return it to your Ore Refineries, but they don't chronoshift |
|like Allied miners do. They have a small machine gun mounted on them though,|
|which allows them to defend themselves against infantry and light vehicles. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
=============================================================================
| | Cost | Requirements | Built From |
| Yuri |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 1200 | Soviet Battle Lab | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|Yuri can take control of most units through psychic domination. Once you've |
|taken control of a unit, you'll have control until either the Yuri or the |
|unit being controlled gets killed, or until you target another unit to |
|control. When deployed, Yuri creates a psychic wave that instantly kills any|
|infantry nearby, including friendlies. |

| Yuri Prime |--------|----------------------|------------------|
| | 2000 | Barracks | Barracks |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|It's highly unlikely that you'll see one of these during a game - it's the |
|result of playing as a Soviet, capturing an Allied MCV, training a Spy, and |
|getting it into a Soviet Battle Lab. Yuri Prime operates exactly like a |
|regular Yuri clone, except he can take control of things from much farther |
|away. (You'll also be able to train the Psi Commando unit when you get a Spy|
|in an Allied Battle Lab as a Soviet - see the Allied Units section for |
details on Psi Commandos.) |

If you've tried a skirmish game or if you've tried to play online, you've most
likely noticed that you can choose from nine different countries when you
start - five Allies and four Soviets. How are they different? Well, they
aren't really all that different, but each country has a unique ability, which
I'll explain here.
-------
America (Allies)
-------
- When you play as America, your Air Force Command HQ will give you a
paratrooper ability that will count down on your defense tab. When the timer
reaches zero, you'll be able to call in a cargo plane to paradrop eight GIs to
a location of your choice. Be careful where you drop them, though - they'll
die if they land over water, even if it's just the edge of the beach.
-------
Britain (Allies)
-------
- When you play as Britain, you'll be able to train Sniper infantry units.
These guys are armed with a powerful rifle that can instantly kill infantry
from a huge distance. Stick one in an IFV, and you'll have a ridiculous
infantry killing machine.
----
Cuba (Soviets)
----
- Cuba can train Terrorists, which are just unarmed infantry units with bombs
strapped to them. Target something, and the Terrorist will run at it and
detonate himself on it. The blast is quite powerful considering the cost of
two hundred credits. A Flak Track full of these guys can do some serious
damage if you manage to make it inside an enemy base.
------
France (Allies)
------
- France can construct the Grand Cannon defensive structure, which is a large
(and very powerful) turret with great range. A few of these things close
together can slaughter anything that tries to attack from the ground, but be
careful - they require power to operate. They're also completely defenseless
against air attacks. Another thing to watch out for - be careful how close you
put them to each other and to other buildings. They can sometimes get their
turret stuck on a nearby structure, rendering the cannon useless.
-------
Germany (Allies)
-------
- Germany can build Tank Destroyers, small vehicles armed with a powerful
anti-tank weapon. The shots from Tank Destroyers are absolutely devastating to
vehicles, but they're worthless against buildings and infantry. You'll want to
use these as support units rather than core units.
----
Iraq (Soviets)
----
- Iraq can train Desolators, an interesting infantry unit armed with a toxic
rifle of some form. The shots it fires will kill infantry instantly from a
good distance, but they won't do anything to vehicles and buildings. The
Desolator can also use a deploy command that will make it spread radiation in
the immediate area around it, which will kill infantry in the area. They won't
be able to move while deployed, though, and it still won't damage buildings or
vehicles.
-----
Korea (Allies)
-----
- Korea can make Black Eagles instead of Harriers - they're the same as the
Harrier, just with better stats.
-----
Libya (Soviets)
-----
- Libya can construct Demolition Trucks, which are trucks with small bombs on
them. When targeted, the truck simply drives to the target and detonates on
it, causing damage in a large area in the process.
------
Russia (Soviets)
------
- Tesla Tanks are Russia's specialty. Very lightly armored and not exactly
powerful, Tesla Tanks are a massive let-down. They're only major benefit is
that they can shoot over concrete, but that's rarely even all that helpful.
