I was bored the other day, and since I can't install any new game on my PC due my PC prob I manage to pull this game out of my HDD and manage to make it runs again.

RA 2 & Yuri's Revenge expansion pack is considered old nowadays. Yet I just can't get enough of it :D

Since I happen to browse and haven't find a good RA2 forum I thought why don't I post a thread for SYMians to exchange their RA2 knowledge here.

These are Allied destructive unit combos :
5 or 3 Mirage tanks (preferably on Veteran rank)
5 or 3 Repair IFVs (preferably on Veteran rank)
5 or 3 Prism Tank

Note :
1. If you want to use only 3 on each units, the IFV must be in Veteran rank ;)
2. The only weakness of these units are air strikes and Yuri's Psycic Domnator Special. The air strike or air attacks can be easily fend off by deploying the repair IFVs or using 2 Battle Fortress loaded with Guardian GIs escort

We need an over-my-head smiley :D

I'm still a fan of the Old C+C with GDI and Nod, what fun that was!

Now those were the good old days... :D

I can still remember the fear I had the first time I saw the Obelisk of Light in one of the GDI missions :eek: :p :D

I as bored today and spending my afternoon replaying the Soviet last mission on Yuri's Revenge. Kinda interesting that I found out if you don't deploy your MCV for certain amount of time, Yuri will saysomething like, "I'm growing impatient about where you gonna place your base. No matter where you put it you can never defend it well enough..........." :eek: Yet I manage to wipe him out by capturing his Construction Base and build his units ! :D

I'm still a big fan of the original Red Alert. I don't know, but RA 2 is a little too complex, with all the counter units and such... ;)

I like the simplicity of building 40 tanks, then rushing your enemy's base. :D

So in actuality, you are the mass unit lamer that we all have grown to despise :D

@Gaxx : I just got new missions pack DL from a fan site. And I hardly think you can tank rush on these missions. Feel free to PM me for details :)
