Red alert players know that the tools for making money in the game are generally nothing more than mining, oil wells and selling. Among them, mining is the main economic source. Let's analyze which of the Soviet Army or the Allies is more efficient to make money:
1. Armed minecarts of the Soviet army and time-space minecarts of the allied forces
The main difference between these two vehicles is that the allied time-space mine car can directly teleport back to the mine after mining, but it cannot attack, and the ability to resist harassment is very poor. The armed mine vehicles of the Soviet army, although they do not have teleportation skills, but because they come with 23mm cannons, they can protect themselves to a certain extent and have strong ability to resist harassment. If you look at mining efficiency alone, many people will think that the time-space mining vehicle is more efficient, but this is not the case.
Because the spacetime mine cart can only recover 500 units of money yellow ore at a time, and the armed minecart can retrieve 1000 units of money yellow ore at a time, even if the spacetime minecart can be teleported one-way in time and space, but the distance of the martial ore collection once is already equivalent to the efficiency of the space-time minecart collecting twice, and there is a problem in the game, that is, if the allies have multiple mines, the initial space-time minecart teleportation is not transmitted according to the principle of proximity, so it is often found that the mine is next to the ore, However, the Chrono Minecart seems to have insufficient IQ, and unless you force it, it will teleport to the original mine, which will be slower.
1. Ore refiners and replication centers
Perhaps some friends will think of the ore refiners of the allied forces, which can improve the quality of mining. Indeed, ore refiners increase the resources recovered by 1.25 times each time.
But even the existence of ore refiners is not enough to make the mining efficiency of the space-time minecart much higher, which must first exclude the additional income of the oil well, because the ore refiner will increase the unit time money of the oil well from 20 to 25, if you count the ore refiner, the Allies collect 625 units at a time, which is still not enough to exceed 70% of the number of armed minecarts collected at one time. And more importantly, although the Allies had ore refiners, the Soviet army was not far behind, and did not forget that the replication center was a major advantage of the Soviet army.
The two most perverted characteristics of replication centers are cloning technology and decomposition technology. The so-called cloning technology is that when the barracks produce infantry, the replication center will generate a homogeneous infantry for free. The decomposition technique is that infantry can be "sold" when it enters the replication center, and the recovery ratio varies from class to class. List a few details for you to see, the second-hand price of Soviet infantry in the market:
Through the data, everyone should obviously see that spies and Tanya are popular topics that the market likes to speculate, because the profit rate is too high, which is equivalent to saying that if Soviet spies steal Tanya from the allied army and choose to build Tanya, it is equivalent to no loss. Even Demu just does not earn or lose, but the magical building of the copy center, the existence itself is a BUG, in one sentence to describe the difference between it and the ore refiner: the economic resources of the allied army rely on saving food and thrift, and the economic resources of the Soviet army rely on extravagance and waste.
