even after decades playing this game, I'm still able to learn something new about it xD Thanks tg

I've been playing this game for years I never knew you could defuse the bombs with an engineer

TG's RA2 videos are like MCU movies, there's always an after credits scene

Probably even the developer team doesn't know what you know about this game lol

So what we've learned is that the apocalypse tank is more powerful than a nuke when dropped from the sky. FYI: The tank bunker also increases the range of the unit .

did u know that? if terror drone attacks your basic tanks, you can put them into tank bunker. they didnt take damage and, it looks like they're dancing xD

5:50 Tesla tank refuses to destroy an ally: "nothing wasted!".

a easy way to damage your tesla coil with tesla trooper: force attack the ground, and put a tesla coil there

If I remember correctly, while any more than 1 Tesla trooper doesn’t add damage, they do increase the range still up until the third trooper

3:31 "ready comrade" so satisfying and perfect timing

The elite flak troopers doing less damage blew my mind!

I have known this game for over 10 years. I just knew that an engineer can defuse Ivan's bomb from this video.

Boris is too macho to take a prone position and die as a real man facing the bullet 🤣🤣

Did you know that you can link up to 9 Prism Towers?

Engineers can diffuse bombs on other units but not on himself. What a sad story...

Ending = When an arrogant new player somehow beat u online

Another awesome video! You know what else would be great? Some kind of showcase of "civilian" units. Red Alert (and Tiberian Sun) are choke-full of neutral units like bus, ships, cars, forklifts, camera dollies ecc. Even a lot of neutral buildings have wonderful design, like that animated Billboard with talking fruits or Burger Kong \\[T]//

Wow after 20 years, I never knew that engineer can defuse Ivan bomb 😂

As always, you are the perfect guide of this game, these are great tips!

Thanks Yuri, I see you still have many tricks up your sleeve. Seriously thank you

Awesome works from TG. Even though I know the reason for example why elite chrono legionnaire's attack can't pass through walls. I am really amazed by his testings and tips. This is why I am a big fan. I always wait for video uploads from you. Thanks man!

1:02 Why the heck an elite Flak Trooper worse than regular one? Makes no sense Do they also have reduced damage the further away they are from the target like Flak Tracks?

Tbh though, I still like RA1 Tesla Coil. Long range, short charge time, and insane damage. Yes, it uses a lot of power, but that’s what a Tesla Coil should look like, not those miniature form in RA2 or in RA3. RA3’s Tesla Coil takes FOREVER to recharge and attack.

RA2 is like GTA SA, we kept playing it and know stuff, but there's always a thing that we never knew of

Great video as always!! Thanks ❣️

4:10 In real life, we called it: Infantry pinned down because they were taking Suppressing fire 5:38 Well that was nice strategy for countering Yuri Chaos Drone

The Engineer being able to defuse Ivan bombs I think was even explained in the Soviet level he was introduced... Although I found out from looking at the Engineer in TibEd and was like "What's this weapon they have?" and quickly drew to the conclusion that yeah, it disarmed Ivan bombs. 1:25 Did not know that one... I assumed all infantry died to the Chronosphere. Does this also apply to the Chrono Ivan and Commando? 2:55 What if you told a Tesla Trooper to force attack on the ground and put a Coil on top of it? 5:30 Huh, interesting. Did not know Apocalypse Tanks did damage on death. 7:20 So would a damaged tank deal less damage to a building on impact compared to an intact one or is it all based on max HP?

I've been boosting Tesla Coils since back in the day, but I didn't know a few of these. Neat stuff!

I was aware of how good tank bunkers were, but wasn't aware of the attack speed. That's interesting to know!

An overall great review of tricks and tips there that you have discussed in your previous uploads. And you even introduce some new stuff unfamiliar to us yet. So you can prevent any more Chaos Drone self-destructive actions by pressing S (Stop)? I must remind myself to do this, then... whenever my tanks get under the control of that Chaos Drone. Tesla noob at the end, though 😆 Out of all the Pros, only the Elite Tesla Trooper has that great advantage and benefit from promotion.

When a falling Apocalypse tank does more damage to the Construction Yard than a nuclear missile lol

0:42 I have played Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge for 20 years but I have never known that

2:58 you can damage your own tesla coil with a tesla trooper by making the trooper force attack empty ground then build a coil on the same tile. 4:35 units that can't prone have "fearless=yes" in rules.ini. being fearless makes you die faster so it's ok to be scared of things lol.

Excellent video comrade

Thank you for useful tips!

7:06 Lifting a Miner and dropping it straight away will destroy a refinery... I have used this many times and it is dirty

Some facts: you can only mind control 3 units by psychic tower and you cannot transfer the mind control until one of its control dies.

Damn. I have several hundred hours in this game, and when it recommended this video to me I kinda scoffed. But watched because KZfaq rabbit hole. Ya turns out I didn't know a lot of this. 10/10

Very good video! Thanks

Great video!

Watching tip #1: yeah already know that Watching tip #2 till end: wtf how is this even allowed Seriously though never knew about the elite noobs! Awesome work as always tg 👏

Wow, that's a lot of new things i just know. Thanks.

Nice tips :D

My god. Still new things to learn about this game.

if a flying disc is taking power from a power plant and you iron curtain the power plant the flying disc will still steal the power, learned this the hard way....

I love how you use rage comics since they became popular along with RA2 at almost the same time

Chronosphere also works on chrono ivan and chrono commando

That was quite a nostalgia. Thx

Lmao... that tesla-troll at the ending.

7:55 I didnt know Joseph Joestar was a helicopter pilot for the soviets

its amazing how this game still active till now !! after decades ! the base game and game mods ! it say how amazing and epic this game was and still !

I'm working on my own mod for YR, and while working on a new weapon that's similar to the tesla trooper, remembered this video. I went to check, and it turns out that the reason why basic legionnaires can fire over walls but elites can't can be traced back to how the elite promotion gives units an entirely new weapon. At some point, the Westwood devs changed the stats for the base weapon to have the capacity to fire over walls (a change to the projectile)--but they forgot to make the same change to the elite version, so it is stuck not being able to. just something neat

throwing his own unit at his own construction yard, instantly killing both... now THAT is savage.

Nice work

Do you know that you can group your units by holding alt+ctrl to the center of to units for quick Ic or chrono?

Were Yuris transmissions attempts at ASMR videos? The cutscenes with Yuri in the year 2000 look a lot like ASMR videos in 2020. He whispers and everything. "Hello, comrade viewer. This is Yuri, uploading from hidden psychic broadcast station in glorious Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Today in this video I will be attempting to control your mind."

Yuri is master.

Thaaank youuu for the engeneer tip , i now know what the hill is this injection

this is good tips video.

Boris doesn't need to prone (duck down). He takes it like a real man

Reminds me that I'm annoyed how Tank buster works. I mean AI can straight up target the tank inside. Wish it works as an extra armor.

Elite Tesla trooper in BF is more scary than elite GGI

The part where one Tesla Trooper charges the coil doesn't work for me. I only get the yellow bolt with two Troopers. idk why.

some of it i alredy know but wow so many small detail in an rts game but it the legend game red alert 2 so im not surprise

About the tesla coil 1 tesla trooper will increase damage 2 trooper will increases damage and range. And you need 2 to keep it running if power is down and 4 to keep it running with maximum power and range when power is down

Imagine using a crazy ivan to block an engineer rush xD

The thing ive noticed with flak units is that they do splash damage as actual flak would, I think 3 star flak trooper does more damage to groups of aerial units rather than a single unit

okay at first thought its mindblown that the chronolegs doesnt die but at second thought it makes so much sense xD

I didn't even know that an elite chrono leggionaire cant attack over walls, maybe because i rarely played with it

Does the bunker thing also work with Mental Omega?

Nice one, learned a couple things. I thought tank bunkers also increased a unit's range?

Usually did you know videos are stupid and say things everyone knows, but damn dude. Good to know I’ve been wasting time putting 4 units on a Tesla coil for 20 years.

In the last version of the game (7.7) you can't promote chronolegionaire

Will it have any effect if both IFV and unit have been promoted compared to only one? And any effect with the British sniper?

do units maintain their promotion bonuses in tank bunkers on top of bonuses the structure provides or does one overide the other? sorta like how the battle fortress works to keep upgrades.

5:55 As far I remember, ifv does get veteran advantage of : Sniper/virus -> fire rate & range Desolator -> fire rate Legionnaire -> chrono powerup

As far as I know, Chrono ligoners are the only unit that can get a promotion in battle fortress

Huh interesting!

Tesla tropper on tesla coil also increases range. At least this is how i remember it.Very effective on french towers.

Got 2 questions; what stucture can survive if a magnetron dropped an apocalypse tank on that said structure? Tank bunkers are capable of increasing a unit's dps, so what units can survive against another when normally they can't… for example a lasher can't go 1 to 1 with an apocalpyse unless its in a tank bunker. Set it up like this: 2 weaker tanks vs 2 stronger ones, one of the weaker tanks is in a tank bunker. Testing on these 4 units stop when the tank bunker, a stronger tank or a weaker tank gets destroyed.

Can you promote your ifv by killing your own units if you put chrono legionaire inside?

Smart red alert fact

哇，居然还有这么多不知道的细节。感觉以前都白玩了。。。哈哈。谢谢

imagine you got promoted because you shot a camel

“The Chas drone” :v

Have the bugs of the elite units been fixed with the CnC.net updates?

This was techinically my first RTS game.... And to know that Elite units could be noobs... That gave me a laugh of my life lol

Next Video: Test mines in Mental Omega :D

Ah so the control attack button sound for Engineers are for defusing bombs. Don't know if it works on Triple Power Mod haven't tried it.

Elite Tesla trooper: Listen here, you little shit...

This is usefull in a ton of wayes! 0:43 I wish i know beter!

nice

about that chronoshift, does it work on other chrono units? chrono ivan or chrono commander? teleport in, blow some shit, teleport out. that's some hit and run there

What is the background music 2:18 - 4:27

Have you done a tank bunker video?

finally i've beat my brother with ur tips

4:30 As i remember flack trooper can prone

Flak units doing more damage, then he closer to target. Elite Flak have bigger attack distanse, so that why he deal less damage - step him for same distanse and magic disappeared.

Was expecting that non elite tesla trooper gets fried . Lol .

2:01 Small-a allied lol. 2:59 I think the devs gave Tesla Troopers such a short range because they wanted them to be mainly support units that can charge Tesla coils. After everyone rolls out their Battle Labs and pumps advanced units out, these guys don't have any use as direct attackers, so if they had better range, they'd still suck against tech units and become worse at charging coils because they'd get distracted more easily by enemies. 4:22 And some weapons can have a different prone damage modifier. I think it simulates accuracy. Conventional ballistic weapons can miss or be dodged, so infantry can make themselves smaller and avoid hits more easily by going prone. Energy weapons (Tesla, Prism, UFO/cosmonaut lasers) are highly accurate and hit instantly, so they aren't affected by stance. 6:38 What? Pretty sure they can be destroyed. Or are they only invulnerable when the gas cloud is active? 7:10 I thought it depended on the vehicle's weight (both Apocs and Prisms are equally heavy), but that's why dropping miners on buildings is a popular tactic, I guess. 8:04 IKR, this thing gets spammed a lot in small map games with crates. Especially Gatlings inside offer great AA, and Prisms allow excellent map control with just as much range as Magnetrons and Siege Choppers. Together they make an awesome defense. They consume no power, so even when you have to use a force shield they still keep working.
