Im stuck in Yuri's Revenge...

Soviet: Capture Ramnov and escort him home, defend him from Yuri and his clones, retake the airport.

Allied: Defend Parliament from Yuri's assaults.

The Soviet one I am not nessicarily stuck but just too bored to try it again. The Allied one all my units are Mind-controlled or the Boomerage Subs Start launching missiles and my Patriot's can down all of them before loosing Parliament. Any ideas?

Have em, and my Chrono Legionnares to destroy the Master Minds as fast as possible...maybe a Robot Facility? The un-minda controllable tanks? I garrisoned Big Ben, the Building next to Big Ben and the building in the Left Side of the screen. About 2 Chrono's per bridge supported by 6 Guardian GIs (GGI) and a GGI WarCarrier (or whatever they are, the 5 man gun truck.)

That doesnt answer the MIssile situation though, Ive crammed Patriots but no luck, they fire all on the first of 2 or 4 missiles, the rest get through before Reload.

blah! use Battle Fortresses! Crush every tank and wall in your path, or use harriers

battle fortresses are the 5 man gun truck :D

also the way i beat it, i used harriers to destroy the base and some how survived yuir's attacks with pill boxes. Also use Guardian GIs to defend against the subs, i think you can build a naval port there in london, im not sure though

I think the Prism Towers are your best bet.

(Hint: Build Spy Sattelite thing, see if the Mind things are comming, then BLOW THEM UP WITH HARRIERS, 8 will work)

Ahh, thanks guys it worked. The PRisms coupled with massive walls holding the enemy from firing while my entrenched Defender's pummeled em worked. I used 9 Prism Tanks and a SpySat and a ChronoSphere to warp the Prisms in on the inside of Yuri's base where the defenders couldnt immedietly respond and I tore them a new one.

Now IM to the mission in Antartica, a pain in the butt to be nice. I built both bases up but the Genetic Mutator and Phsycic Dominator chewed my forces up, Im ready for another go though, I had pretty weak automated defenses, I'll admit.

/me needs to play c&c RA2.

Yay! I beat the Soviet Campaghn. Last mission was easy. Use a Nuke Silo to take over the other soviet base so you have 2 Nukes, then use them to knock out the Allied tower and use Allied Prism Tanks to take out the Castle.

Too bad Sofia didnt keep her promise...lol

Let's see... I think the farthest I got in RA2 before I got bored was the mission with the Eiffel tower, where it gets turned into the mind control thingy. Basically, I stuck a ton of grunts in buildings for base defense, and blew the sh*t out of the Eiffel tower with about 40 harriers at once... I lost a few on the way, but with that many, it doesn't really matter... :D

Mmmm... Overkill...

I thought you used tesla troopers to turn the Eiffel tower into a giant zat gun.
Jan 10, 2004 Pyroman_Ace link
You have to charge the "Paris Tower" (they didnt use Eiffel tower for some unknown reason...they also created a "Generic World Famous Museum" so anybody's guess as to the sanity of the devs there at Westwood and EA) with 3 Tesla Troopers and use it to knock out the power. Or as Lt. Sofia put it:

"I've always loved the City of Lights. Too bad I can't be there when the lights go out."

I think you are probably thinking, Pyro, of a mission to St. Louis, or Washington DC to liberate the US Civilians from Soviet Mind Control tech. not go blasting allied installations with Harrier Jumpjets.

"This is Mojo 1, target in sight. Thats a lot o flak!!"
"Mojo 2 is hit, Mojo 2 is down, Mojo 2 is down"

Granted they yelled "mojo 2 is down" after Mojo 2 slammed into the Nuclear Reactor on Alcatrez, sadly, Mojo 2 was the last harrier left so how a pilot yelled he was down is anyone's guess, see Generic World Famous Museum for more details!

Remember ya'lls the Turrets were the #1 guild even if they weren't a guild and had no sense of organization or chain of command. True fear in the shape of a bus!
