  1. I agree completely. SW's favor Yuri as well, as they get the Genetic Mutator to turn any infantry into their side weapon —not that great since Base defenses would easily take them out, & also able to target your heavy cavalry with Psychic Dominator, I had to leave a match (single-player) because of it (too disruptive) —but I forgot to get the German army to ally with me so... I got hit by the Weather Control Device, or I'd be winning. I don't know what happened to Force Shield... P.S: The Soviets just have Flak technology, which is all they're good at.
  2. Ooh OK, then again I don't play with Superweapons.
  3. Good luck beating a computer on base deployment timing !
  4. The -win command-line switch kept causing my game to crash when I moved the mouse to the bottom of the screen, don't know if that's fixed now. There was an additional file to stabilize the window mode by removing borders or something, but that didn't work for me either. But yeah, XP SP3 compatibility with Run as Admin are vital to get the game running on Windows 10. Good luck !
  5. Battle Fortresses can crush Apocalypse Tanks [& walls], those things are evil incarnate !! Luckily I've never had to face them in all of my MP exploits.
  6. Or Demolition Trucks in countless rally pointed Amphibious Transports. I've seen that & Tanya spamming in one Red Alert 2 game, by a pro player at my local LAN café. ?
  7. Why are you wasting time Terror Droning his Masterminds, when you could be radiating the Slave Miner workers with Desolators ? Economic Warfare is the best strategy ever. Also, there's a trick to use cannon fodder (lots of Conscripts+Terror Drones) in front of your Rhinos to make the Masterminds waste mind-control slots & overheat, this adhoc tactic works as there's no Robot Tanks like the Allies have got. Also hotkey them seperately from the tanks. I've used this tactic mainly to draw enemy Mirage Tanks fire from Rhinos but works for other factions as well. BTW Terror Drones are useless if they get in range of Gattling Cannons, so they're limited in their use.
  8. No, you don't gain anything that way, only reason to kill your unit is when it's Terror Droned & you need to kill your unit to stop it from spreading.
  9. I read in the GameFAQs guide by S. Rudiyanto that the Industrial Plant: Reduces production costs and production speed of all Vehicles (including Aircraft and Naval) by 25%. Also, if I remember correctly, each additional War Factory increases production speed by 25% —can't verify this anymore & you can have this increment in speed for upto 6 additional buildings.
  10. The Allies have the Battle Fortress which can crush tanks & walls, lethal against vehicles _&_ air —the Soviets have no counterpart & are severely outclassed —just 3 of them with garrisoned Guardian GI's can stave off attacks to a base [in single-player.] Also Allied Robot Tanks in 15+ are the answer to Yuri's psychic technology & can be pivotal against an Easy Enemy for instance.
  11. Slower speeds appeal to me as well too —gives you more time to contemplate your moves & make judgements. However, I guess temporarily increasing speeds [in single-player] can be quite handy to increase production time. But anyone with a modicum of logic can tell the game is more breathtaking at a speed lower than default, which is 'Fast,' so tone it down one notch (6 to 5) as I have.
  12. If you are referring to the ctrl+f1 ~> f1 trick then you ought to know I've been playing Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge for 15 years, no need to get tetchy about it...
  13. Played "Army of the Potomac" map (Oil derricks, c00 landscape), really liked it (can be shielded by allies) like Turf War. Before I played "Invasion Confirmed" & "Circuit Board" which was nice but not as. —All Single player... Picked France, with Korea & Germany as allies, vs. Yuri. It's frightening how Easy Enemy attacks with 2 Brutes & a Yuri Clone ! -shudders at the thought-

  14. This is a very diverse game with rock-paper-scissors tactics, so it seems dubious as to why you people are cherry-picking. You win some, you lose some... but keep the spirit.
  15. I'd say it's due to a misconfiguration. Also what copy of Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge are you using ? Also CnCNet Launcher should fix those crashes. Weird~ P.S: If you are using WindowBlinds+FX you might want to make an exclusion for it.
