Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 -- Time Study
FAQ Written by PyroFalkon (pyrofalkon@hotmail.com)

--REVISION HISTORY--
03 November 2000 (v1.0) - First release.

--OPENING BLURB--
I've written two semi-popular time studies already (one on Age of Empires II,
and one on its expansion pack). To continue the tradition, I've decided to make
one for my newest love, Red Alert 2.
This FAQ has little fat, and a lot of meat. There's no review, no fluff talk
aside from this section and my disclaimer. I give you the info you need, and
that's that.
I assure you that this time study can't and won't help you if you're a newbie.
Check out NVarkovsky's fantastic FAQ for detailed info on missions and units if
you're starting out. This FAQ is for the vets, especially those who frequently
ally. Using this, you can accurately give your allies information on how long
it'll take before you ready your army, or navy, or whatever.
I won't go into the tech tree or what the units do. I'm going to assume you
know the game well enough that you don't need to question "what's this?" every
line.
Okay, enough talk.

--NOTES--
The times are sorted by faction, then type, then unit name alphabetically. I
split them every five to lessen confusion. The unique units for multi-player
are listed at the end.
Everything was timed with the speed setting on 5, the default. If you use a
different setting, your time will vary accordingly.
Everything was times with a very fast computer on a very fast network. If you
have a slow computer and/or are lagging, your time will be a bit higher.
I didn't list Navy SEALs because they are the same as Tanya's, and they're not
used in multi-player. If you're in a campaign and need the SEALs' time, look up
Tanya's. Same goes with the Psychic: they are replaced by Yuri's in
multi-player.
All times are in real seconds. I noticed that the game clock seems to tick a
bit faster.
Due to human error, allow me a half-second either way.
