Red Alert is a game full of memories, so far Xiaobian often plays a few in his spare time, but now it is basically playing a single machine, pure entertainment. As a "senior" enthusiast, today Xiaobian on the Red Alert Riyuri camp against the Allied/Soviet camp, what are the odds? Let's share a little bit of my own insights.
Red Alert three camp icons
First of all, let's take a look at the tactics and weapons commonly used by the three camps:
Yuri:
Common tactics: Gate tank + magneto tank + brain car + wind tank, basically can restrain all units on land; flying saucer + wind tank + magnetic tank + a small number of brain car + gate tank, basically can effectively break through the defense.
Common classes: Nerve Assault Vehicle, Gate Tank, Magneto Tank, Brain Car (Mind Control Vehicle), Yuri X, Berserker, Flying Saucer (Laser UFO)

USSR:
Common tactics: mainly rely on strong attack, plus some troops to cooperate
Common classes: Horror Robot, Rhino Tank, v3 Rocket Launcher, Radiation Engineer (Iraq), Apocalypse Tank, Helicopter Gunship, Boris, Hurricane-class submarine, Kirov Airboat
Soviet operational deployment map
allied forces:
Common tactics: various units cooperate, the battle fortress is in front, the grizzly bear is in the middle, and the light edge is in the back, which can temporarily form a strong firepower, and can also be used to cooperate with flying soldiers and multi-functions.
Commonly used classes: American Soldier, Heavy Soldier, Rocket Flyer, Chrono Corps, Multifunctional, Phantom Tank, Remote Control Tank, Prism Tower (Tank), Battle Fortress

First, pvp battle mode
Obviously, pvp is more simple and rough than the pve battle method, the game battle in addition to winning and losing is more fun, pve to play the computer, after the early defense, the later can fully enjoy the fun after the consolidation of the regime. Personally, I think that in terms of strength, the overall offensive power of the Soviet army in the three camps is the strongest, many Soviet combat units are thick-skinned, but the overall defensive ability of the Soviet army seems to be weak and suitable for fighting in the early stage; the late attack power of the Allied army is stronger, n light prism tanks are directly demolished, the intruder aircraft are also very annoying, and snipers. Yuri also feels that it is later, Yuri is more defensive in the later stages, but the attack is still relatively weak.
1. Yuri vs. Soviet Union
Yuri against the Soviet Union, if the Soviet Union took the initiative in the early stages, then Yuri will be more passive at the beginning, not to give the Soviet Union too much pressure, Yuri began to be more troublesome if he was dragged down the rhythm of the attack. The Soviet Rhino tank is more powerful and more resistant than Yuri's Tornado tank, but moves slower, while the armed mining vehicle can effectively hit the brain car (but only if it is economically sustained), the mine truck is closely followed by the anti-aircraft vehicle, which can defend Against Yuri's flying saucer, and the Soviet anti-aircraft vehicle group also has a greater threat to the brain car and the base (the anti-aircraft vehicle group will confuse the braincart, and the demolition of buildings is fast). In addition, the Soviet army's terrorist robot is also the nemesis of the brain car, if it is drilled into a few, it will basically be cold. Therefore, when the brain car and Yuri X rush to the front line, they need to be protected by extra Gate tanks, which can effectively prevent the harassment of terrorist robots.
Yuri Brain Car Group
If it can still fight until the later stages (just if), Yuri has money and electricity, and his defensive ability is quite strong, but he is still very afraid of the Soviet Kirov in air combat, and his offensive ability is also weak. If you consider the use of the navy, then the Soviet Navy is not inferior, the Soviet Navy a submarine plus a sea scorpion, basically let the other side crazy, and submarines can be grouped, cost-effective, Yuri's submarine is very expensive and difficult to mass-produce, so at sea, the Soviet Union is also stronger than Yuri.
Soviet Navy
However, many masters like to use the Soviet camp of Iraq, mainly because the radiation engineers are so good to use, a group of people crouch there, even the thick skin of the apocalypse tank is afraid of three points. However, if you use Iraq to fight Yuri, no matter how the opponent fights, you still need to take the initiative to attack yourself, and if you have been passively defensive, there is little hope of winning.
Iraqi radiation engineers guarded it, leaving the enemy in awe of three points
On the whole, in PvP battle mode, the Soviet camp is still stronger than Yuri.
2. Yuri vs Allies
The two camps of the Allies and Yuri are actually preferred by many people, the Allied spy satellites, aircraft, and prismatic tanks are more powerful; and Yuri's mind control, the strong firepower of Yuri's recruits, and the recycling plant that any unit can be scrapped are all liked by many people.
Yuri's superweapons – mind control, genetic mutations
Yuri and the Allied camp pk, the Allies are best to choose France or Britain, France relies on the long-range firepower of the giant cannon to achieve effective defense, and the British create snipers to constantly snipe the slaves of minecarts, affecting Yuri's economic income. However, no matter which country the Allies choose, they must give priority to creating phantom tanks and light prism tanks, forming a tactical situation in which the grizzly bear is in front, the phantom ambush, and the light prism is behind, if the Yuri camp is out of the flying saucer, then the Allies will use heavy armor + multi-functional infantry vehicles (or a combination of both) or heavy soldiers + battle bunkers for restraint, and the air defense effect of simple multi-functional infantry vehicles is poor, basically difficult to hit.
Although the Gate tanks of the Yuri camp are cost-effective and useful, they are too brittle, and they are invincible when encountering Grizzly Bear tanks, Yuri recruits attack fast, but they can't win the Grizzlies, flying saucers are better than allied rocket soldiers, although they are easy to use, but the cost performance is also low, the equivalent rocket soldiers can complete the flying saucers, and the Yuri submarine (the combination of submarines and dreadnought battleships) Although the power is not small, but when encountering the allied swarm of dolphins, it will also be mad! In addition, the use of the Allies will not require super weapons, compared to the use of money in more places, at the beginning you can build aircraft to steal power plants, and later save money to raid Yuri's high-tech facilities.
Yuri's Navy's killer weapon —
On the whole, the Allies and Yuri have their own characteristics, Xiaobian personally feels that the Allies are better to operate (Yuri is more maneuverable, suitable for the gods), and it seems to be missing a killer of the Allies - remote control tanks!
2. pve battle mode (single machine)
With the computer pk, it is pure entertainment, Xiaobian still has time, but also like to abuse a few computers, play the best fun of the game. Play with the computer basically the first few waves can be kept down, the basic problem is not big, the main is to solve the economic problem, Yuri because there is a psychic control tower and Yuri, so the Allied, Soviet spy is useless, other ways of playing are similar to the above, no matter which camp you choose, you can defeat the computer in the later stage, this is beyond doubt [laughs], give the friends a "test question": look at the Yuri headquarters base in the following GIF, in what way is it better to attack? Welcome to leave a message to talk about it.

Well, limited to time, Xiaobian wrote this.
Although Red Alert is a very old game, it has always been liked, because it carries too many memories, and it also welcomes interested friends to communicate and share together!
