Red Alert 2: Allied Mission 12 - Chrono Storm [Long-play & Tips]

This is the 12th and final mission of the Allied Campaign, Chrono Storm.
The mission is very entertaining especially for long plays since there are plenty stuff to do. All the technologies are available and there are many soviet bases that you can capture. Also, this mission makes it easy to train the RA2's Yuri Prime who many are unaware of.
All missions are played on Hard difficulty.

2:16 those Grizzlies aren't Trains; they won't be tempted to go through a ConYard :P 3:03 AI will always target last-built factory; if you build a new WF before the Nuke launches, that Nuke will take the fresh WF IIRC. Still, what are the odds you'll have a spare WF for that situation? 4:24 those two Nuclear Reactors belong to BadGuy1 House; as does everything else you see in red. No fancy scripting like in All11, everything belongs to one BadGuy. Except for the black stuff; that's BadGuy3. Brown stuff is BadGuy2. 14:05 that was a Chrono-fail :P 23:50 YURIPR needs Soviet Barracks NAHAND and infiltrating Soviet Battle Lab NATECH; hard to happen in standard RA2 skirmish, must be why he's as OP as he is. 31:16 the sound cut-off here for some reason, might be related to higher game speed; "We will never surrender! Death to the Allies!" 31:22 community member Atomic_Noodles re-made the Weather Control device with pink "ball"; you'll need Ares-DLL though since it needs a custom palette; the standard unitXXX.pal doesn't have pink gradients, just solid pink. 31:39 firing at a nuclear warhead is safe, kids! Do try it at home! :P For this mission, rather than chking if BadGuy3 House (black "Black Guard") is completely dead, game will chk for the existence of Tesla Coils, Flak Cannons, Sentry Guns for that House, and for the local variables MammothDead1 through MammothDead4. Those locals are set if the Mammoth the respective trigger tag is attached to dies. Once you're at this point it's impossible to lose; the trigger Player Dead is disabled, and a failsafe trigger is enabled. The "Failsafe End Mission" trigger will win you the mission after 35s at 15FPS. Fun fact: trigger Player Dead waits for 10s at 15FPS before actually chking if you have nothing left; this is probably to wait for the SEAL paradrop at the start and not fail the mission immediately (the Cargo/Paradrop planes don't count as units because Insignificant=yes). Or maybe it just waits 10s at 15FPS *after* you have lost everything before firing the lose trigger, IDK. Map mods: *OilExplosionWH spreads damage to a 3x3 space, and only does 50% damage at edge. Vanilla spread is a space with a radius of 4. *Tesla Coils only drain 10 power now, instead of the usual 75. *standard capacity-halving and worth-doubling. *IronCurtainSpecial RechargeTime is 10min at 15FPS (Iron Curtain SW). *MultiSpecial RechargeTime is 20min at 15FPS (Nuclear Missile SW; "MultiSpecial" was the main Nod SW from Tiberian Sun). +General section re-defined, PrismSupportModifier *not* re-set; enjoy the OP Prism Support! *Cash difference between medium difficulty and easy/hard is +/- $4000. *Spies steal only 3% of cash reserves. *Tanya +50HP, Primary weapon set to SEAL's MP5, ArmorType explicitly re-set to flak, Speed explicitly re-set to 6, Sight explicitly re-set to 8 *Tanya has been modded into an Assaulter www.modenc.renegadeprojects.com/Assaulter (presumably so she can enter the Kremlin in-game). *MP5 Range +2, explicitly re-set ROF to 10 and Damage to 125.

They won’t go through the con yard but they will still ruin the wall by passing side of it! 🤪 Also, too bad about the sound cut off. It’s indeed due to high speed and I had it happened too many times and I restarted the scenario in each case just to record the whole sound. I wasn’t aware about it here. :(

[@ericorrin5748]

As far as i know the AI will use the nuclear warhead on the Naval Yard, if present, and if there is no Factory available. So at the time i used to capture the Airport near the starting location to gain access to a building spot on the small patch of water available and just sell the Factory few seconds before the actual launch to divert it to the secondary location. The nuclear warhead cannot destroy the Naval Yard, or the nearby Airport, with a single strike so it's a cheaper alternative and do not interfere much with base defence.

[@whiterunguard4852]

Indeed, this is probably the most "sandbox-y" mission in the game, since you get to run (or should I say... teleport?) around a Soviet filled Moscow with all of the Allied technological might. The only thing that I always found sad is that it isn't exactly hard, if you survive the early attacks then there is nothing stopping you from removing the enemy bases one by one with your Chrono Legionnaires. It also means that you can finish the mission quite quickly - all you have to do is get rid of the Black guard, which is easier than expected, mostly because the Apocalypse tanks have a slow enough reaction time to let you freeze them with the Legionnaires. It is quite funny watching the Premier get captured while a fully intact Soviet base stays right outside of his door. And if you find the mission way too easy because of the Chrono Legionnaires, then do what I do - build a War Factory and a Barracks (without the Battle Lab) then sell your Con Yard and try to finish the mission as fast as possible. It forces you to complete the mission using more... traditional ways, and capturing Soviet buildings is actually going to be useful.

[@IapetusStag]

A good outro would be to Nuke the area around the Kremlin to destroy the last Black unit and the fallout left will kill Tanya as she Chrono in outside the Kremlin. Tanya will die and MISSION ACCOMPLISH XD

[@buckn5]

I am curious to see how you will handle the soviet campaign now , considering some of the missions in it (cough red revolution , cough)

[@alexanderstoyanov7464]

It's not that hard to actually long play Red Revolution, use starting Kirovs as front defence and try destroying the nuclear reactors at the middle right quickly with your starting tanks while also building defences. From then on it's pretty much a simple, albeit it annoying cause of the Yuri's, cleanup

[@Ei2995AY]

In a ground v ground forces... Nein. Yuri always send some 'Flying Shark' to us. 2 direction. And... Those damn clones! That's more than crazy, right? Luckily, Premier himself passing all of his loyalist army to us against Yuri. So, those lovely Kirov tech... Use it to destroy the Kremlin in easy way possible.

[@commandopengi]

Nice bullying of the Soviet base by capturing everything and setting up a forward base in the middle of map

[@RoadKamelot2nd]

This was outright bullying, likely payback for Kirovs from the start. Ah, the one and only mission where you get the Weather Control device, and you don't even need it. In fact, you only need to shut down the power and then infiltrate their Battle lab with your spy. Pack a few psi-commandos into IFVs and chronoshift them near the Cremlin, evac the Psi-commandos, mind-control the black Apocs and use them to destroy the Soviet bases from the inside. They won't auto-target the black flak cannon, so you can savor the destruction of the Soviet base with their own elite Apocs.

Can't wait for Soviet Campaign! Pretty fun so far! One thing i like to do is to capture the airport fast and build shipyard so all nukes go there. I never thought of the IFV promotion strategy for some reason, pretty useful. I didn't get the joke at the end, what's the correlation of the message displayed and the topic you mentioned? Oh also, you could head for the RED Nuke Reactors first and later the black colored ones to stop the superweapons faster. There's no point on doing the black ones first.

You can also put some chrono guys on the cliffs next to the enemy base and promote them to elite level easily. They erase running by enemy units but gain no damage from anything

[@Antimanele104]

Also, for the nuclear silo, I usually build a sacrifice force of 4-5 prism tanks and a Chronosphere. Since the chronosphere charges up pretty quick, I instantly teleport my prism tanks next to the silo to blow it up. If I'm lucky, sometimes I even manage to save 1 or even 2 prism tanks for a bit of cleanup. After this part, the mission is a cakewalk.

Totes like my favorite mission in the campaign. The secret is to not only take out the nuclear reactors via Chrono Legionnaires, but begin by expanding your base above where you teleport in, using the houses as defenses. Then once you take out the reactors and they cannot Iron Curtain you or nuke you, you can safely build where you first teleported into, claiming the derricks and bunkers with ease.
