Mission Map : Last Post (Soviet Mission, Yuri's Revenge)


Concolor1

Recommended Posts

Mission map for anyone running Red Alert2 Yuri's Revenge, you will need the Yuri's Revenge mission Disc. The Zip holds the sov01umd.map file and the ra2md.csf string file.  Place these two files in the Westwood Red Alert2 folder. Then launch the game and select the Allied Mission. There is also a read me file and mini map included in the zip. Full list of credits and hints along with more information in the read me file, special thanks to McPwny on this for invaluable assistance.

Once your finished playing this mission simply remove both these files and the Red Alert Game will be restored.

Created:1st Dec, 2002

Originally Created for one of those sites now long gone. Ive decided to upload it once again.

Name: Last Post
Size:80x100
Players: 1
Theatre: Desert

To play this mission:Yuris Revenge mission disc required. Extract the contents of the winzip
file into your Red Alert2 Directory.Launch the game,select new campaign for the Soviets.
The game will then launch.

Info: A small Soviet outpost located deep in the Sahara desert has been attacked! All contact has been lost, but the final reports
told of troops going AWOL into the desert and acting as if controlled by another force. We suspect that Yuri may be responsible for this
atrocity. However we have since been able to establish contact with one solitary engineer who had set-up camp far enough away from the base to
avoid detection. He has been told of the situation and has now confirmed the presence of Yuri's forces in the area.
We want you to guide him safely back to the ruined Soviet base where he's to effect repairs and re-establish control. It will then be down to you 
commander to avenge the loss of our comrades and level all of Yuri's bases out in the desert. Do not fail us!

 Objective 1: Guide your Engineer back to the Soviet Base.
 
 Objective 2: Destroy all of Yuri's Base's in the area.
 
 

 


Ok so there u have it,
A RA2md.CFS file has been added. This will overwrite any other RA2mdCSF.file which you may of installed in your 
RA2 Folder from previous downloaded missions.The file contains text which been altered in order to fit 
with the maps theme!
Explanation: The Sov01umd.map file when placed in your RA2 folder preceeds the standard Yuris Revenge game disc missions.
This means that the first mission played when the game is launched will be this mission. To restore your games
original first mission simply remove the Sov01umd.map file from your RA2 folder.
The RA2md.csf file contains the text for this mission, it also preceeds your game disc csf file. As above once you have
finished playing this mission remove the RA2mdcsf.file. This also causes your game to revert to reading from the mission 
disc as opposed to reading data from the RA2 folder.

Hints: I found this one fairly easy, simply send your Engineer North-West to the Soviet base, control is gained as he enters the area, grab those three Crates as you enter.

I took out the Top base First, followed by the Lower Western one, then the Larger Bottom one. Be ready for a rescue mission as you pass the Green Enemy Base to the west. Use Kirov's, Terror Drones and Flak Tracks. Beware of Yuri's mind control units. Plenty of cash crates and oil derricks about.


Various slight moddifications have been added, all to keep in with this missions theme. The moddifications will not alter your 
original RA2 game.

Fortunately any new missions won't have off-map spawning reinforcements, all down to yourself and helping me out with the next release, which i've been play-testing over the weekend. The Ai certainly improves things no end. Always interesting to hear how people win these maps. Thanks again!
