  Hints/Tips: Covering Red Alert, Yuris Revenge and Generals/Zero Hour.    

 

 

 

Yuris Revenge/Red Alert.

When playing as Allie, a quick way to take out you opponent is to build a IFV out of your war factory (before building anything else), and an engineer out of barracks. Position your engineer into IFV and sneek him into the back of the enemy's base, in the meantime have pillbox ready. Double click on IFV and capture the nearest building with engineer (watch out for any dogs). When he is safely inside deploy your pillbox in enemys base ,deploy a few more just to create havoc. Sell your barracks and build another one ,deploy this one in the enemy's base and knock out a few engineer's in doing this you will be able to capture as many building as you can...... Enjoy the victory.

A quick way of of increasing your cash flow.

Deploy MCV and build Power plant, Barracks, Ore refinery, and War factory. Build second Ore refinery and deploy, sell the first. Whilst doing this out of War factory build 2 Chrono miners (if Soviet War miners) by now you should more cash than your opposition. Knock out the tanks...... Go get em Floyd.

 

       
Watch out for stormers.

These are people who like to just build tanks normally in the early stages of the game. Make sure you send dogs out to reveal the enemy's base, in doing this you will be able to access what they are building and how many tanks they have. If you find they are building a number of tanks, they want a quick defeat . Try to match the number of tanks he builds with yours and place plenty of pillboxes in your base. It might not win you the game, but it will hold them off for a while.

Dog Crazy.

When playing as Soviet , if you need to bomb something with a Crazy Ivan but dont want to risk losing him , plant bombs on attack dogs and send them out to attack .They are cheap and can quickly be replaced, they are also a lot quicker.

 

   
Generals/Zero Hour  

 

Hint: Dr. Thrax: Perfect attack force:
As GLA Dr. Thrax, upgrade to Anthrax Gamma. After that, you will need four Battle Buses. Fill two of them with Toxin Rebels and the other two with RPG Troopers. This force will be very difficult to defeat because the Toxin Rebel buses will destroy all infantry in range, while the RPG troopers will destroy every tank, aircraft, and even most buildings very easily. Also, they can attack from behind and in front at the same time.

Hint: U.S.: Ultimate killing force:
Get six Humvees with TOW missiles and the Repair Droid. Load them up with two Snipers and three Rocket Soldiers. Use your Particle Cannon to knock out the enemies defenses then wreak havoc on the rest of the base.

Hint: U.S.: Defenses:
Line an area with a sequence of Patriot, then Firestorm Base, Patriot, and keep going. Then fill the Firestorm Bases with four Pathfinders. This will help you take out infantry without trouble of Flashbangs or other hazards.

Hint: Chinese: Ultimate force:
Create six Emperors or Overlords, depending on the General you are playing as. If you are using Overlords, upgrade two with Bunkers and fill them with Tank Hunters, upgrade two with Propaganda Towers, and two with Gattling Cannons.

Hint: GLA: Scud attack:
Play as any GLA general. You can only do this online. Get a Worker and build a Scud Storm to 0%. To do this, tell him to work on it then tell him to go to a different place. Then, click on the unbuilt Scud Storm. Hold Q then [Ctrl]. While holding those keys, click where you want the Scud Storm to hit. You can do this multiple times and you only have to wait a few seconds between launches.

Hint: Easy skirmish mode wins:
Play as the U.S. laser general against the Chinese infantry general. This also works well on the eight-player maps. Sit up so that every man is for himself. On the hard level, the infantry general sends waves of soldiers who are easily mowed down by the laser turrets. Be quick to obtain the particle cannon so that you can knock out the nuclear missiles.
