[Previous World Record] Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 Allied Campaign Speedrun

Part 3/4
First sub-30 LRT thanks to RNGesus and updated strats!
Employing "attack-stop" spam yet again at any point possible and also the save-load mechanic for Chrono Legionnaires in the final mission.
On a more serious note: knowledge of troop triggers, positioning, and pathing made this run absolutely challenging, but it's also what allowed me to optimize this category even further after much experimentation and micro-practice. This took me close to a week to master and eventually run, which was just about the same amount of time as the last world record category I conquered.
Potential Timesaves:
Mission 6 (Operation: Liberty) can be ran in 05:00 IGT if properly micro'd and enemies all IMMEDIATELY funnel into the center area where I'd positioned my troops. I hated this mission the most because it took me a long time to eventually refine my playthrough of this single mission to the optimized strategy you now see above, but it eventually became one of my best and "easiest" missions to clear after all the frustration.
My best (and luckiest) was 05:10 IGT vs. the 05:20 in the full run.
Mission 12 (Operation: Chrono Storm) can be ran sub-03:00 IGT if one can micro the single Yuri + Apocalypse AND the legionnaires concurrently cleanly. I decided to settle on activating the legionnaires last (as you can see where I save-load for them to appear out of stasis and then just jump on one sentry gun ONLY AFTER I was certain the rest of the Black Guard was donezo) since it would've been too much microwork at that point in a run to risk it all. Fastest I ran this with basically what I did in the video (which was 03:17) but slightly cleaner was 03:06 IGT.
Update 12/04/22: This is an obsolete, noob idea now. Here's an even faster run of this mission: • [World Record] Command... :)
Final stop: Yuri's Revenge's Soviet Campaign! ;)
