C&C Red Alert 2

I fecking loved Red Alert 2. I used to send an engineer in to capture the opponent's main base, build a construction vehicle and leg it. They'd inevitably capture their base back, but I could use the constructor to build one in my base and then have the technologies of both sides. Putting a tesla trooper into one of those Allied SUVs that changes according to what's in it. Heaven.

My mate is absolutely destroying me in every fecking game we play. Give me some more tips please.
 
Command & Conquer > Tiberian Sun > Red Alert > Red Alert 2 > C&C3 > Red Alert 3 > Generals.

I liked all of them though. Generals only a bit. And don't even fecking mention C&C4. There's no such thing.
 
Loved this game. Some great maps. Especially the large one with a lake in the middle and water all around. You started in the four corners, best places were the bottom left and right as they were seperated by the water.
 
Never played RA2 but RA3 was one of my favourite RTS's ever. I pwned n00bz hard on that shizzle.

IFVs :)

I remember making about 200 Navy SEALs and then having them destroyed by a British sniper in a fully-promoted IFV, turned it into some kind of sniper-machine gun that just mowed through everybody.

My favourite memory though, was when we played a 4 player game over the network, and we were winning fairly easily. I asked my ally if I could "park" my Kirovs over his base, and he obliged. When he saw what I'd done, he nearly killed me.

Was an awesome game, played it to death over the LAN a few years back

RA3 was shit. RA4 was the devil in game form. Conclusion: play RA2.

Oh shit, you are right. I meant RA2! RA3 was fairly recent wasn't it? Yeah that one was wank.

If RA2 was the one with Yuri expansion pack then that is the one I meant, and it was a godly game.
 
Well, yeh, you don't only attack with planes. Ground troops or naval shelling to destroy the AA enbankments and then WHOMP they've been fecked over by twenty-four Korean super-planes.

If you have your base set up properly it's impossible for navy/ground force to get to your AA defences. I'd rather just build a shit load of Prism-Tanks and chronosphere them in to their base.
 
I liked generals, just for the nukes and airplanes. Oh and the arabs that hid in their bunkers.
