Is C&C lore done, Jethild? _No, comrade viewer. It has only begun_

Great start for the Red Alert universe. Maybe you can give a brief of the Allied and Soviet sides next to put into context the doctrines and technologies they would be using later.

When I played the first game at a very young age, I always thought the MCVs were cement trucks.

So many Alternate Conflicts created from a simple handshake. Great World War 2, Third World War, Pyschic Domination Crisis, and the War of Three Powers are what made me love the red alert franchise.

The irl equivalent of MCV would likely be a combination of TES-3(nuclear powerplant on enlarged T-10M tracked chassis) and REDUT(command post with ability to dig itself out after being buried). IE hidden command post with ability to provide energy to a full base for extended period of time.

I've said this before, I love how you give so much time and depth to an in-game unit that could simply be taken at face value. The MCV is probably the toughest thing to bring to life when comparing it to military units or other buildings.

*_"Time will tell. Sooner or later... time will tell."_* Didn't expect this first thing coming from work. Thank you Jethild, you've just made my day with this healthy dose of C&C info and lore. And the intro was quite superb~ _Keep it up, Commander._

He returns when we need him the most for our Red alert's lore hunger.

You forgot one thing about the 2nd World War and the Alternate War, the propensity of Allies to bring repair vehicles: Engineer IFVs with them. Which not only improved survivability of the MCV, and by extension: Prospectors, while they are mobile. But also helped cut down costs for repairs. And then there's the infamous SHRINK MCV/Prospector. Why is it infamous? A shrunken MCV/Prospector deploys faster, and has instant build radius (beating out Soviet Sputniks, and pissing off Imperials) and moves faster than any MCV/Nanocore/Sputnik. Doing this in multiplayer is a surefire way of getting banned. Specially with the way Allies constructs buildings, A lone MCV might pop up 5 defense turrets in an instant. Which if it's a Spectrum tower. Melts any ground unit or structure in a short order. I also love it that Red Alert 3 has individual lore for it's units compared to Red Alert 2, like manufacturing, who designed/built it, it's notable battles, and reason for the design.

Many tech that really need explained like allied chrono technology, soviet iron curtain, yuri cloning vat, empire nano-tech and much more

Jethild keeping Command and Conquer alive.

Love the Red Alert MCVs. RA3's MCVs had so much charm to them.

Thank you Jethild, I was waiting your red alert episodes.

Welcome Back Comander !

I said it once with the Tib Sun intro, and i'll say it again with this one. I love your use of the Red Alert 1 menu animation. Such a small touch can be such a great detail and sign of care for the video and it's presentation.

Great video. I'm glad you're covering the red alert universe. It's one of my favorite RTS games, especially as I recently picked up RA3.

The Red Alert series is one that I played first before the Tiberium series, I must admit. So the Red Alert series has a special place for me, even though the Tiberium series is fun and I never got the chance to play it until years later.

Thank you for being you and doing what you do. I appreciate you. I hope you and everyone here has a great day.

Great start to the RA universe tech! I'm really looking forward to more!

Hell yeah! Red Alert timeline videos! RA2 is still my favorite video game of all time, so this is exactly what I had hoped for.

Hell yeah! red alert lore! thank you jethild! love your channel dude!

I can't wait to see the continuation of this series. One thing I'm specifically looking forward to is your coverage of each faction's minor and major superweapons and various unit types. Specifically, a favorite strategy of mine whilst playing as the Empire is, if I've successfully captured an Allied MCV, attempt to hide it and construct a Chronosphere to instantly set up Imperial Bases & defense systems by warping my Nanocores around. Can't wait to see how you do it!

Jethild, this was absolutely amazing! I think you did a very good job starting to cover Red Alert. Best of wishes from me!

the new timeline for the Jethild.

great job as always canny wait for more red alert

Babe wake up, new Jethild video just dropped!

The start of new Red Alert content. Man I'm looking forward to this

Finally i been waiting so long for you to start making red alert videos

_That Empire of the Rising Sun soundtrack at the end..._ ✋️😌👌 Welcome back, Commander! I look forward to all your future videos covering the events, lore, ractics and equipments used throughout time in the Red Alert multiverse! 😁

I received original Red Alert 2 from USA when I was around 13. It had one of the best made installation process. I believe you took screenshots of MCVs from those files. I like how they were showing vehicles and buildings blueprints with blurred text.

Yes finally red alert universe, can't wait for a lot of content, i hope he does mental omega stuff as well, this should be enough content.

Thank you very much for helping cheer up a gloomy sickness! 😊 lore is always fun!

This was a great kick off to the Red Alert stuff, keep it up!

love your work, thanks for sharing this

Great start! Let's keep em rolling, commander!

Finally switching over to red alert... about time... keep it rolling, commander.

this is going to be a great film series

Nice start, waiting for more.

Nice Work on The MCV part 2

One thing I never understood about Red Alert 3 is that: If the Soviets travel back in time and remove Einstein from the Timeline, that would mean Einstein never removed Hitler from that same Timeline, so wouldn't the Soviets indirectly bring Hitler back? Red Alert 3 could have been Axis vs Soviets.

Learned a whole lot of things about the MCV today

I love your videos so much and now we can have Read Alert too!!! 😍😍😍

Great stuff as always.

KEEPING THE GAME ALIVE.

I have a question regarding "Tempest Rising". Will you cover that game as well? And to this vid: It´s good to see some allied power construction

Baby wake up Jethild just uploaded about red alert

Always amazing!

Few years playing RA3 and i STILL learn new things. Never noticed clearance lights on allied buildings. Then again, i was busy suffering from AI, so... And i double someone's question from comment section: where does this intel come from? Still, great video.

"Construction Complete!"

One thing to note, the Empire's nano cores can crush infantry so they're not completely helpless

It’s very interesting that yuri can create his personal faccion with one unique and curious desing

If you travel back in time, you can do anything you want because you have already done it, so nothing will change.

Love the mention of the ERS androids

When you rush a crane you can build anywhere when you pack up your mcv and move it to locations. Pretty flexible gameplay.

Wait, hold up. When did Einstein become a timetraveling assassin?! Lol Also thank you for all the awesome work on C&C units and lore. 👏👏

I was like KZfaq refresh then let’s goooo

I never played any Red Alert game, only the Tiberian timeline, Tim Curry in cutscenes? I wish I was a kid again to invest my time in playing and enjoying these great actors.

You have to include the Mental Omega mod for Yuri's revenge, the Foehn Revolt needs to shine as well.

Can't wait for part 3 - Generals' Dozers and Dune's MCVs.

13:02 Pennywise, Lucifer and the Djinn embark on time travelling adventures!

Its time!!

Here we go!!

There was some clear doctrine differences that offer own benefits like Allied using basic tank designs vs. soviet heavy tanks and Allied large surface fleet vs Soviet submarine fleet. But was is just game design that Allied had no airplanes at first Red Alert. Yet they used old fashioned anti air guns (and turrets vs vechiles) to counter soviet air while soviets had missiles.

You're missing a segment here: Red Alert iOS wasn't just a crude port of Red Alert 3's gameplay (much like how C&C3: Tiberium Wars on Java was). It was a mini-continuation of Yuri's Revenge, an epilogue of sorts, which showed how the Soviets recovered, the first iterations of certain technologies we'd see in Red Alert 3 and new ones which were erased, and it showed the Empire's formation (IIRC). This pertains to the current video because we actually see the first iterations of the Allied, Soviet, and Imperial MCV's and Construction Yards, which were the successors to the Yuri's Revenge models.

Another banger

Only few more into the Apocalypse Tank.

NICE

Love it,noice.

Thanks for the vid. BTW, do you consider the Red Alert phone game canon? It was meant to explain what led to the Soviets doing the time travel bit that started Red Alert 3.

"Showtime, fellas!" - (RA2)Allied MCV "Get in position, comrades!" - (RA2)Soviet MCV "As chosen by Yuri!" - Yuri's Army MCV "Prepared to deploy!" - (RA3)Allied MCV "We're on!" - (RA3)Soviet MCV "This location is approved!" - Rising Sun MCV (Yes, I made the ones for RA2 up...)

RA where if you win as the allies you get RA2, but if you win as the soviets, the timeline turns into C&C Tiberium wars.

Three Disparate worlds. And at the crossroad of fate One man, and his time machine.

Damm, i wonder if we'll have the same thing happen for Mental Omega mod For RA2YR, I want a detailed talk through of all Mental Omega Units including the Foehn

(Red alert 2 Allied MCV) 5:53 (Red alert 2 Soviet MCV) 6:58 (Red alert 2 Yuri MCV) 9:18 (Red alert 3 Allied MCV) 14:21 (Red alert 3 Soviet MCV) 18:20 (Red alert 3 Empire MCV) 23:15 All Voice

The C&C lore is strong in this one . The force of Kirov's and the Shogun executioner awaits us!

Nice. It should be noted that Yuris MCV had a close semblance to the Soviet MCV (tracks, looking like a railroad, sturdy). This shows Yuri still held a close connection to his Soviet heritage, I'd say

Never realized that the allied MCV rotates its tank threads to rotate 14:11

YIPPIE building vehicles!

Very interesting 🤔 lore video

Looking forward to when you talk about RA3's Japanese faction. As for the MCV, as a whole, I feel like they should have been designed with some technical as aspects of a command center much like the ones in Generals. However, looking closely at the Allied and Russian MCVs, I can see some aesthetic to indicate where we (the commanders) would be in. But what do you think Jethild and those who read this comment?

Epic

hey will you also include the post war crisis technology from the ios game in future videos? it happen between yuris revenge and the intro of red alert 3

11:10 not quiet, the allies can use a engi-IFV to repair any vehicle

I think you guys should check out Combined Arms (An OpenRA mod) on ModDB It's basically C&C+RA games This could possibly be a proper ending to the CnC series

HELL YEAH!

Fun fact: empire of the rising sun construction mode was inspired by EARTH 2140

The Imperial MCV reminds me of the Thundercats Thundertank.

Can you eventually do Tempest rising and some of the command and conquer mods like rise of red corona, twisted insurgency and paradox? Keep up the good work If you want to do another series, you could do HomeWorld

God damnit EA YOU HAD TO RUIN A GAME FRANCHISE FROM MY CHILDHOOD!

It has begun bros

MCV는 아까 1부영상에서 말했듯이 연합군 과 소련군이 건물을 지을때 사용하는 이동 건설 차량으로 발전소를 비롯한 병영 과 군수공장을 지으려면 이 MCV가 필요하다.MCV가 전환하면 건설소로 전환이 되는데 한번 전개하면 다시 MCV로 되돌릴수 없지만 이건 캠페인 한정이고 멀티플레이에서는 MCV 재전환을 활성화 시키면 다시 MCV로 되돌릴수가 있다.MCV가 가까운 광물지대를 발견하여 건설소로 전개하고 발전소 와 정제소를 건설해서 이렇게 확보한 광산 및 보석은 정제소에서 가공하여 판매가 되면 자금으로 확보하게 됩니다.하지만 너무 많이 확보하면 용량이 초과되며 광물 창고를 건설하여 용량을 늘려야 한다.MCV로 전환되면 트럭은 자동으로 차고에 저장되며 ㄱ자로 붙어있는 건물은 모든 건물의 청사진의 관리 및 개발 개휙을 총괄하는 엔지니어 와 건설 인력들이 거주하고 있는 시설로 차고 근처에 있는 크레인은 차고에서 나오는 포장된 자재를 풀고 새 건물을 짓는 용도로 쓰이며 겉으로 보기엔 빠르게 건설되는것을 보면 이건 게임적 허용이다. 소련의 침공은 초반에는 성공적이였으며 영국이 마지막 남은 자유 국가가 되었을거라 생각했지만 이건 실제 나치 독일이 베네룩스 3국을 침공하고 프랑스를 침공하면서 마지막 남은 국가인듯 했지만 결국에는 영국을 지키는데 성공하였고 유럽 연합은 스스로 뭉쳐 아인슈타인 박사의 기술 발전의 도움으로 소련을 모스크바까지 밀어낼수 있었다.스탈린이 사라지고 이때 등장한 인물이 알렉산드로 로마노프 였고 로마노프는 구 귀족 출신으로 공산주의자였지만 평화옹호자였다만 사실 이건 위장 전술이였고 로마노프는 비밀리에 미국을 침공할 준비를 했는데 사실 미국은 1편에서는 중립이였고 영국에게 물자 지원만 했다.물론 리탈리에이션에서 카빌 장군 같은 소수의 미군 장성을 유럽에 파견한 경우가 많았다. 소련은 재침공을 하기 위해 비밀리에 자체 생산을 하게 되는데 그 과정에서 정신 제어 관련 연구도 포함되어 있었고 그 정신제어를 연구한 사람이 바로 유리였다.이때 듀간 대통령은 소련에 연락하지만 이미 늦어버린 상태였고 CIA의 첩보를 무력화 시킨것도 전부 유리였고 미국의 핵 미사일 사일로를 작살낸것도 유리였다.결국 제 3차 대전이 발발하게 되지만 미국 침공은 초반에 성공적이였지만 역시나 혜성처럼 나타난 연합군 사령관의 등장으로 전세가 연합군에게 왔고 반면 유리는 대한민국이 미국을 돕기 위해 블라디보스토크를 치려다가 실패하였지만 유리는 자신의 초능력 부대를 대한민국에 침투 시켜 대한민국 정치인들을 정신 제어 시켜 중립을 고수하려 했으나 이름모를 어느 기자의 폭로로 인해 들통나버리게 되고 유리의 초능력부대는 황급히 소련으로 도망치고 제정신을 차린 대한민국 정치인들은 뒤늦게 연합국에 참전하게 됩니다. 연합군 과 소련군은 MCV 개발을 계속해서 진행했으며 이때부터 차별화 되기 시작하였는데 연합군일경우에는 트럭 형태로 나오지만 소련군은 초중전차 처럼 바뀌게 된다.연합군의 MCV는 초기 디자인은 바퀴가 8개였지만 인게임에서는 6개로 줄어들었다.만약 레드얼럿 2가 리마스터화 된다면 초기 3D 모델링으로 작화 수정될 가능성이 있다. 소련의 MCV는 아예 새롭게 디자인 되었는데 마침 초중전차 처럼 묵직하게 디자인되었으며 전개시 콘크리트 부터 차고 및 크레인 과 거주 시설까지 배치되는데 이때 다른점은 거주 시설은 바실리 성당을 연상케하는 지붕이 있다.기지를 건설하면 크레인은 창고 옆에 포장된 자재를 창고로 옮긴다. 유리는 로마노프 서기장의 고문으로 정신 신호소 와 정신 증폭기를 만든 장본인으로 대부분 소련 침공의 원흉으로 사실 유리의 진짜 목적은 세계정복으로 로마노프에 대한 충성심은 아예 없다.하지만 유리는 도피하게 되고 유리는 연합군 과 소련이 전쟁을 벌이는데 정신없는 사이 자신만의 사병을 만들게 되고 센프란시스코의 알카트라즈 섬에 사이킥 도미네이터를 건설하게 되지만 사실 사이킥 도미네이터는 이미 이집트를 비롯한 남극에 비밀리에 건설하였고 연합군 과 소련군은 그 사실을 까마득하게 몰랐다.결국 제 3차대전은 연합군의 승리로 끝난 직후 이때 모습을 들어내며 사이킥 도미네이터를 작동 시키지만 해리어 편대 중 한기가 핵 발전소에 불시착해버린 바람에 센프란시스코만 멀쩡했지만 문제는 이집트 와 남극에서 작동된 사이킥 도미네이터가 센프란시스코를 제외한 미국 일부 전역 과 유렵 그리고 대한민국을 비롯한 중국 과 일본 그리고 패전국 소련까지 싹다 세뇌 시켜버리지만 아직 희망이 있었는데 바로 아인슈타인의 타임머신이였다.연합군은 타임머신을 사용하여 사이킥 도미네이터가 건설되기 전 시점으로 거슬러 가게 되며 과거 시점부터는 소련과 일시적으로 싸우지만 대부분 스테이지에서는 유리와 싸우게 됩니다. 유리군의 MCV는 소련의 MCV를 참고해서 만들었으며 무한궤도가 무려 3개나 달려있다.그래서인지 진짜 초중전차처럼 생겼지만 당연히 무장은 없다.건설소로 전개하면 소련과 비슷한 건설소가 건설이된다.다만 발전소 나 병영은 아닌듯하다.만약 멀티 건설 및 파괴된 건설소를 교체하려면 군수공장에서 MCV를 생산하면 되지만 가격이 3000원이라는 무시무시한 가격을 가지고 있다.물론 생산하려면 테크 요구가 필요하다.연합군 과 소련군은 수리소를 건설하면 되지만 유리군은 건설소가 없고 대신 그라인더가 있는데 그걸 지으면 MCV를 생산할수 있지만 그라인더는 수리시설이 아니라 해체 시설이다. 연합군 과 소련군의 연합으로 유리를 저지하는데 성공하였고 과거는 영구히 바뀌게 되지만 또다시 전쟁 및 갈등을 빚게 되지만 소련에게는 굉장히 불리했는데 전쟁의 패배로 인해 시민들이 민주화 운동까지 펼칠 정도로 민심이 떡락한 상태였다.결국 체르덴코는 젤렌스키 박사가 만든 타임머신으로 아인슈타인을 없애버린 바람에 소련은 제건이 되지만 결국 심각한 병크를 저지르게 되는데 바로 일본이 난데없이 소련을 치게 되었고 일본 제국 즉 욱일 제국이 나와버렸다.. 새로운 3차 대전으로 인해 MCV도 새롭게 바뀌는데 소련군은 딱정벌레 처럼 생긴 모델이지만 연합군은 진짜 초중전차처럼 생겼으며 일본 제국 또한 초중전차 처럼 생겨먹었고 게다가 이제는 수륙 양용 기능까지 추가되어 해상에서도 기지를 건설할수 있지만 병영은 해상에서 건설할수 없는 제약이 생긴다. 새로운 MCV는 독일의 Strauss-Fuhrmann Autowerks에서 제작한 신형 MCV로 생긴건 초중전차와 비슷하며 가격은 무려 5000원이라는 진짜 어마무시한 가격을 자랑한다.건설소로 전환하면 건물을 생산하면 무슨 전파가 뿌려지는데 이건 VOIP 시스템으로 이렇게되면 원격 생산할수 있다.믈론 MCV를 대체할 대체 수단은 프로스펙터 차량이 있다. 소련일 경우에는 얘기가 다른데 소련은 MCV를 전개하면 건설소가 되지만 기지를 건설하면 연합군 처럼 건설 완료라고 뜨면 전개가 되지만 소련은 뭔가 다르다.일단 건물 지으면 진짜 느리게 건설되는데 설정상 건설소에서 부지를 지정하고, 민간 건설회사가 해당 부지에 건물을 짓는 식이다.그래서 연합군 보다 건설 속도가 느린것이다. 일본은 연합군 처럼 전개 방식도 소련 처럼 부지 지정해서 건설하는게 아니라 나노 코어라는 유닛을 생산해서 아무때나 짓는 방식이다.그래서인지 나노 코어를 이용해서 기지 테러를 하는 비열한 짓거리도 할수가 있다. 그러나 일본 제국이 이런 근미래 기술력을 가졌음에도 불구하고 결국 연합군에게 처참하게 패배하게 되고 소련 역시 처참하게 패배해버렸기 때문에 소련에게는 3번째 패전국이 되었고 일본은 뭐 말할것도 없다.원래 역사대로라면 일본은 원자폭탄 2개 맞고 항복했어야 했다.

[AMCV2] - [SMCV2] is what I name the dummy MCV when I make custom modified maps xD

@14:30 SPAMs - such an unfortunate acronym.

Brothers rejoice! New lore video!

This is a good Victory Day reward for us.

empire: can build an advance identical robot that can't be distinguish from a man. also empire: can't create an their own design for an MCV.

The Mobile Construction Vehicle

Wait, I thought that the intro to RA3 was basically the end of the canon story of RA2, not the aftermath of a war that happened after the events of RA 2. They even reference Romanov's loss being the cause there.

I have a theory it wasn't Einstein who ended Hitler but Kane disguise as Einstein. Evidence: They kept Einstein face hidden in the prolong but his face is reveal immediately as the game start with him forgetting everything. Suspicious. 2: Kane keep talking he hod he know how thing would turn out, like he live them out. Along with how hard it was to kill him, survive a ion strike. 3: Kane access to ridiculous amount of techology knowledge. Only reason Kane doesn't do timetravel to fix everything is that messing with timeline is dangerous. The whole red alert timeline as example often leads to worse cases, along with rising sun empire.

I've always wondered though. How much of the third world war in ra2 was romanovs desire vs Yuri's psychic manipulations.
