Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge - Testing Supportive Super Weapons
The supportive Super Weapons can completely change the tide of the game. They are only available if the option is enabled which quite shows how they can affect the pace of the game.
There are many interesting uses which can be done especially if those are combined with each other. In this video we will not cover the combinations though but mostly their uses.
The three Supportive Super Weapons are Chronosphere, Iron Curtain and Genetic Mutator. Only one of those can be built and they are all available for 2500 resources.

Genetic mutator: *about to mutate crazy Ivan* Crazy Ivan: *detonates* you'll never take me alive
Detonates only terrorists
Oh yes! I can finally proof to my friends that vehicles in this game truly are voxels, not sprites!
@CM HW game developers are worse developers after web developers.
The game is also mentioned in the list of video games using voxels on the wiki page. perhaps that is proof as well? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voxel#Computer_games
power up.uoihm
I can only guess how much research the chronosphere alone could take. Walls are a mysterious being in RA2. And there's a way more effective way to perform the vehicle flip. It's by having V3 rockets instead but just dont fire very close to the vehicle. Make them all fire at the same time, in the same spot near the vehicle. It hopefully works. Hmm, what about a video only exploring the vehicle flip concept? Haha anyway gg.
SPiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
i think he already did a vehicle flip focused section in on of his videos
I think the Kirovs are far more effective, as they provide a constant flow of flip-power, compared to the V3s that need to reload for a few seconds.
Review about his technology of his building Zofia : Technology stolen
Wait, vehicles can get flipped over? I remember them lifting a side from close explosions, but never flipped.
Years later we still learn something new
And I thought tank flip in Mental Omega mod, in a case of Libra, is just anti tank ability with tank flipping animation. Turns out she actually just flip a tank really hard.
i learned this in survivals games where the computer enemy mcv is undeployed and ic infinitley. you get instant win if u flip the mcv.
@@NJohnGA10 I know, it's awesome! Wish i could have done it when i still had the game, arrggh. xD
Lol 20 kirov flip tanks before and the tanks explode so i knew that 10 years ago. Also the lighter the vehicle the easier to flip it. Flak track < gizzly tank < rhino < apoc
chronosphere does not only teleport chrono legionere but chrono seals too, regardless great vid as usual.( and chrono ivans)
Chrono people*
Guess it makes sense as everyone with a ChronoSuit can just use the Chronoshift to fast travel.
@@Zelinkokitsune Correct, I though it wasn't necessary to mention it but everyone seems to say about it.
@@tsiripas What about aircraft carriers and the Iron Curtain? Does it work for planes inside them?
@@Wanttobeafurry Nope, it won't make the hornets invulnerable.
Iron curtain: invincible Genetic mutator: $money$ Chronosphere: slam danks you to water & naval slam danks you to the ground
@mstrblik i know that trick + iron curtain!!!
My cousin used to iron curtain grounded Kirovs(by selling the war factory as soon as the Kirov was constructed) and chrono them into enemy bases. Ahhh, the good old days.
@mstrblikahhhh forgot about that. Thx for the correction XD
This is very well made and presented :) Haven't played RA2 and Yuri in...over a decade now. The nostalgia!
oooohhhhhh, so many points I can cover that have been missed! If a Spy entered a Barracks, all Brutes Genetically Mutated start at a veteran rank. The Genetic Mutator also directly kills Tanya, SEALs and Yuri Prime across water, as Brutes cannot swim. The Genetic Mutator mutating your own Brutes into new ones count as a unit death, so don't be surprised if in the score screen, you suffered alot of casualties. An Iron Curtain also makes the unit immune to another Iron Curtain, so you must wait until the Iron Curtain 100% wears off before placing another one on. The Iron Curtain will not stop suicide vehicles from blowing up on command, so this makes Iron Curtain'd Demo Trucks scary. I'm not sure if a Force Shield overlaps the effects of the Iron Curtain, or vise versa, or if they cancel each other out. A Chronosphere can also Chrono any Chrono-Tech Infantry, not just Legionaires, but Commandos and Ivans, too. I'm surprised you didn't hit on the bug involving Amphibious Transports carrying units that are being Chronoed I explained back from the 1st YR Soviet Mission Easter egg. I would have liked to see that experiment. I think if you Chrono units ontop of a structure, they phase into reality at a faster rate the closer they are to their destination, so Chronoing units across the map takes them forever to phase in, but I don't know that for certain. What happens if you Chrono infantry ontop of a vehicle? And is there a chance that if you Chrono vehicles and suicide infantry that the vehicle could blow up before it gets Chronoed?
Thanks
Don't forget DemoTrucks have very short duration for invulnerability when Iron Curtain'd. Unlike the RA1 which when the Chronoshift or Iron Curtain was used on them instantly detonated!
Also, can you repair a unit under iron curtain?
@@nnelg8139 I can't confirm, but I want to say yes. I don't think it's ocurred to any commander to repair a vehicle under an Iron Curtain. Structures, yes, I'm sure you can.
@@KILAH4716 I ask because in a lot of games healing is coded as a negative damage "attack". This is less likely for structure repair and (promotion etc.) auto-heals than for IFV+Engineer repair.
Your videos are the best! Really enjoying ever one! Keep it up! Ur the best :)
Thanks :D
Whenever chronosphere is used to drop vehicles or drop ships on land, I laughed. A lots. :)). Imaging your opponent is sending his appocalypse tanks at you, typing "gg" in chat, but then you flip your finger back him by sending all of them into the nearby cliff or lake. Golden!
Oh man, you should watch this game for the ultimate Chronosphere fun: kzhead.info/sun/jNWLe8idrWqDfok/bejne.html
Just as I thought there isn't any content left to analyze in RA2, you have created this video! Superweapons are the reason why I liked RA2 so much in my childhood, thank you so much!
I still have content in mind! ;)
A combo of chronosphere amd iron curtain is always a base killer, more that superweapon.
Particularly if you can get your hands onto some demo trucks!
Traditional tele bomb: create 9 demo truck>chrono>iron curtain>pick targets Traditional instant reinforcements: create 9 amphibious, load up conscripts>chrono>unload>mutate 2020 telebomb+reinforcements: chrono the chronolegionnaires
Well done, very informative, all in the mind 😈
Chronolegionnaire using the chronosphere is really effective
Chronosphere ready Kirov reporting *Heavy panting*
Landed kirov is deadly bruh
Had no idea you could even flip vehicles
Ammo (Thot Patrol) I noticed that when I was using shit ton of V3 truck to simultaneously attack one enemy tank(thought it was cool as a kid), and all tanks around the one being attacked got flipped over.
@@kindasimpson9704 coz the energy force of things like explosions or air will totally force you to move or you flip -2020 RA2 Logic and science
What can I say, another great video. Do Chronosphered naval units damage buildings they are teleported onto?
Thanks! Teleported units can't damage buildings!
You can move dolphins with the Chronosphere as long as you move them in water
Check at 1:17. They still die.
but what if we were to mutate a mummy 🤔 would it be the ultimate being?
Brute it will be if tried so
I should be working on homework right now-- *TG Uploads* Aww yeah!
This *IS* homework, comrade.
@tg Have you ever tested what happens if you use Dominator on harriers while the air force command is shielded? Do the harriers/black eagle get mind-controlled?
Harriers are immune to mind control. Nothing will happen. They can be converted to your faction if you capture the AFCC with an Engineer or Yuri Prime. Same thing with Black Eagle jets.
What happened if you Chrono V3 far away when it gonna firing rocket ? Does rocket will fly through the whole map?
its too late ask questions but can I use Iron curtains on nuclear right before launch it? same to use chronosphere on it right before launch?
My favorite use of the Chronosphere and the Iron Curtain is to use them in combination to teleport a grounded Kirov into the enemy base and then to make it invincible.
loved the ending
Can you use iron curtain on dreadnought missiles during the launch animation?
You forgot the best tactic for the iron curtain... Activating it on a group of demo trucks just as they drive into an enemy base, spread them out a little, as as soon as the curtain wears off, nuclear carpet bombing!
As mentioned in the vid description, I was focusing on the uses of each SW not of all the possible combinations which can be endless.
if you're playing as Cuba, you can also fill up 9 flak trucks with 5 terrorists each, iron curtain them, and deploy the terrorists to your enemy base. Not as destructive as the demo trucks, but still fun to watch the base go boom 😂
Are you playing this on Windows 10? If yes, did you change settings to make it work or did it work without any fixes? The reason I'm asking is because I am planning to buy it on Origin.
My favorite thing to do with the Genetic Mutator is to get as many conscripts as possible and then make them Brutes lol. A lot faster and a lot cheaper
I also like to use the chronosphere to take enemy vehicles next to an enemy Yuri's psychic units and towers just because ^_^
My best cronusphere kill was an mcv that was retreating teleported it right into middle of my base and my prism towers decimated it (red 3)
Rhino flip ? I have seen a dreadnought flipped while a squid hugging it :D
Does iron curtain can be used on civilisn building?
Iron Curtain is OP Also that ending though
*Expect Flipped*
@@Dell96kill imagine build 10 kirov just to flip a several unit
Teleport Kirov also? So same with flying disc?
Is it weird I read the Legionnaires' dialogue in the "cool guy" voice they speak in?
Wait... Chronosphere can be used even on Chrono Ivans and Commandos, right? If so, how will Commando behave upon teleporting on water (they're amphibious, right?)?
It can be used on all Chrono units but none of them can survive in water. They will die.
7:35 That's was most strategy i use for protecting my building again Enemy when their'e launching their Super Weapon either Weather Control, Nuke, and Psychic And also Iron Curtain was can make my vehicle immune to mind control againts Yuri Mind Controller unit
One thing I liked doing in the original red alert is using 3 mad tanks and a iron curtain so the tanks don't destroy the third one before it goes off and this will allow you to wipe out a base easy.
I love teleport the enemy land units into the water and imagine how frustrated they look
I get a question does the Desolator can resist the Iron Curtain because in Red Alert 3 he is the only infantry who can wisthand this but for RA 2 i don't know.
No he can't!
Yuri's logo is just initial of Yuri Prime.
So cool!
It was just nice on this game having the chronosphere as an actually useful weapon ....... its only real useful purpose on RA1 was if you were fortunate enough to have a small body of water near to the enemy base to get a cruiser in there via chronoshift ...
i wonder how many max vehicles( like, lethal ones, prism tank or apocalypse tanks) can be teleported with chronosphere whilist they are stored in naval transport units. i tried 2 times and the problem was naval transports sometimes get stacked in one place and get destoryed right after i use chronosphere.
The chronosphere affects a 3x3 square grid, so you can chrono 9 units. You can transport 2 vehicles with Amphib Transports(They have 8 slots, vehicles consume 3 each). In theory, if the Amphib Transports don't chrono into each other, you can transport 18 ground vehicles.
dracmeister up to 4 vehicles actually. 2 for things like apocalypse.
9 transports x 4 medium tanks per transport = 36 medium tanks can be teleorted at once at once 9 transports x 2 apocs per transport = 18 apocs or really any heavy vehicles like battle fortresses or masterminds
Vehicles can be flipped... been playing this game for over 15 years now and I just discovered this now... also the chrono leoginers thing were they don't buffer... that is actually broken
I wonder if Chronosphere can be applied on units that are frozen by chrono legionnaires? the same goes with Iron curtain as well, can it be applied on units/structures that are frozen?
M-W-Y no it will not applied
@@RD2rush that means frozen state is higher priority then iron curtain state, I wonder if a super weapons such as Nuclear Missile is launched at a Unit and Structure frozen by Chrono Legionnaires, the Legionnaires would obviously die, but would the structure/unit get harmed as well by the Missile?
@@m-w-y7325 that is 1000 iq comment
now i tried to nuke my buildings and freeze them with legionaries in same time, it is perfect shield 👌
@@relunxet wow! That's quite useful then, you can just put Chrono legionnaires near your Structures and when a superweapon fires, make them freeze the structures to shield them, pretty useful~
are the chrono ivan and the chrono commandos survive to the chronosphere? please answer me
Yes, all chrono units can be used with the Chronosphere.
So where can i find this map?
I am confused with armor types 😂 I feel that “heavy” is the best armor type so I use that armor in mod.
Wait, could Chronospehere move a flying harrier if timed right???
It doesn't work on other flying units like Kirovs / choppers unless they're on the ground (the kirvos shown here are in their landed state, which isn't possible to get in a regular skirmish game), so I doubt it would work on a flying harrier either.
@@MHLoppy Correct!
@@MHLoppy You can get grounded Kirovs in a normal game. You just have to sell your War factory the second the Kirov gets produced.
@@Staloborlp97 interesting, I didn't know you could do that!
In Yuri's revenge I used the chronosphere to cheese the last mission by getting harriers at the back of the enemy base and cleared a path from behind
sounds creative now but that's kinda the worst way to use your chronosphere.. 9 prism tanks would have been more effective, without needing to reload
I used engineers on a nighthawk hovering right before the gatling gun wall, then I deploy spyplane to absorb the bullet and force land the nighthawk on a nearby land, ready for a take over. The gatling gun didnt shoot that far on land.
Hover units die if they droped to water?U forget abouth that :) btw Great work/ thank u!
nope, cause thet can run over it
@@mkaska8647i think he meant if robotanks on an iron curtain, hovered on the water, and then sell the robot controller.
@@Vince0208 well, they die in that case, cause they become ground unit, and they act like tanks on a broken bridge :)
nice video just like my uploaded MO3.3.4 Pro 3v3 video ,good job.
U should have mentioned the demo trucks with iron curtain as the won't blow up till they reach there target considering the time doesn't run out
It's quite well known. I wanted to focus on the uses of each SuperWeapon.
@@tsiripas that's cool man I understand 👍
As a kid I've always tried to flip vehicles but I've never managed to do it even once. Damn it
I once managed using promoted aircarft carriers
wait if chronosphere is lethal to infantry can i teleport crazy ivans to explode the enemy base?
No, they will die before they are teleported.
Chrono Legionnaires aren't the only units invulnerable to the Chronosphere. The hidden tech units Chrono Ivan and Chrono Commando are also invulnerable to it. Slave Miner and Genetic Mutator combination... EASY MONEY, EASY ECONOMY! It's a good idea to combine the use of Iron Curtain and Force Shield to protect your buildings from major superweapons. (Iron Curtain first, Force Shield next; because the base shuts down for a minute when the Force Shield is in use) For instance, Iron Curtain a Power Plant, Battle Lab, Barracks, or War Factory, and then Force Shield a Construction Yard. TECHNOLOGY STOLEN THOUGH 😂🤣
What happens if you put Iron Curtain in a tank then sell it to the grinder?
can I ask which version is this? mine doesn't have those constructions?
Are you playing Yuri's Revenge the expansion pack or just Red Alert 2?
@@tsiripas just red alert 2. so what keyword can I search for the version you were playing?
@@vanthuanluong9398 Yuri's Revenge is what you are looking for. ;)
@@tsiripas thank you
I didnt even know you could flip vehicles
OMG that outro :D :D :D :D :D :D
Giant Squid 😆👏🏻
I bet walls are just different objects with different properties, and they did so to randomize the walls behavior. Like let's imagine one wall type has 3 hp points, and explosion type of "whatever", another wall has no "destructive connection", etc. etc. etc. It's not necessarily how are things in the game like I said, I'm just imagining to give an example, but I'm trying to think what is going on in there. I think it's just multiple types of "wall objects" with different properties and randomness. Why it was necessary? Maybe to remove predictability. So players won't expect the walls break on the same manner and exploit it.
What if you mutate tanya or seal while they are in water?
They die!
I just realized that if it’s team battle with Allied vs Allied, you could make your enemies think that their friend is the one using chronosphere and not you. Big BRAIN But not Yuri’s
How so? The superweapon countdown timer at the buttom right of the screen tells everything
The team colour, unfortunately, can make a distinction.
A little note of the iron curtain since I only saw this when I was a kid. But as long as there’s at least 1 unit attacking another unit under the iron curtain, the effect won’t wore off
just wow. lots of idea.
What if u chronoshift tanks on another tanks?
They destroy the tanks that were teleported into.
1:45 where they land those positions would not be able to build a structure
Chronosphere on Chronolegionare broke me and my friendship back then.
Hooray!
Tg stands for "the god"
Wish more videos about Mental Omega 3.3
Nice
does the iron curtain work on itself?
Yes
So what about the cool down time for each one
Fady Alfons you can find the recharge time in the statistics image in the beginning of the video
So the terror drone gets killed when its victim gets iron curtain effect?
Yes!
did you try Mental Omega ?
No, I haven't and I am not quite sure if I will.
@@tsiripas I highly recommend that you try it, it is very cool
@@rahn3474 Probably I will, thanks!

9:16 chrono:AAAAAAAAA A GIANT SQUID!!! tg:That's what you get for insulting me!
1 thing whst map is that so many co tainer
What about chrono ivan and chrono commando?
Chronosphere will work on all Chrono units.
ypu can use the chronosphere to trap enemy collectors in wall trap
wow i did not know chronosphere works on legionares
I'd start out as the Soviets and capture a Yuri MCV. Combine the Cloning Vats with the Mutator and your conscripts will make you more money than all the resources on the map combined ^_^ $$$$$
*uses the chronosphere to move Kirov* Kirov: Am i a joke to you?
The Genetic Mutator costs 2500. 5 slaves turned into Brutes is 1250 when sent to the Grinder, so it takes the slaves from two miners to pay for the cost of the Genetic Mutator if you send them to the Grinder. Just a little math, make sure you effect a lot of slaves with the Genetic Mutator or sending your new Brutes to the Grinder isn't going to get you much of a profit.
It's getting even better when using the Clone Vat. Then the Initiate costs only half of the regular price and you can mutate them and send them to the Grinder. When stealing the soviet Technology/Barracks you can use the Conscript which costs even less.
@@Ken-cc8hx slave is still free. Conscript with clones still cost you 50 bucks per unit.
@@kirra9152 How many Miners do you build? Maybe three to six. And they usually don't mine next to the Grinder. When building 30 Initiates it will cost you 6000$, that's right. But your're getting 60 Brutes which are worth 15.000$ after grinding. This is the equivalent of 36 slaves beeing mutated and crushed (9000$). While waiting the next 5 min for the Genetic Mutator you can build 30 Initiates again. Also your Miners don't loose their slaves and can actually mine.
@@Ken-cc8hx I suppose, except that you can train initiate with the price of 100 each, provided that you have the cloning vats. Only build 3 of it except if there are extra resource patch.
AAAAAA... A GIANT SCUID This is a referencie a The Girl SCUID xD? ... Yes?
The chronosphere for me 1st gene mutator 2nd iron 3rd
Almost forgot to watch the end.
What i do when i get yuri and allied is make alot of rocketeer then genetic mutator them
What happened then?
@@MoondropSimulacra nothing, because rocketeers are only vulnerable to the genetic mutator for a few frames after leaving the production structure. once they are considered air units, they are invulnerable to the effects.
its actually better because if you train ground units it will take alot of space while the rocketeer they dont
You haven't did building statistics
Oh I honestly didn't not know that you can crono, crono guys. When I pvp people they gonna like wuuuut
You didn't tried to chrono ground units to an iron curtained units :(
One request please.... Can you make a mix of the voices o all units? All of them. Some of these units can make a funny mixed quotes... or else.
I don't know mate, that would need to much time.
I was today years old to know you can chronoshift chronolegionaires.
