Whats your favorite battle tactic in Red Alert 2. Mine's a turtle shell defense and asset control :sniper: :sniper2:

[Allied General]

It frowned upon but let's face it, everyone does it online - TANK RUSH :!:

[Andre27]

Ambushing tankrushes while meantime sending raiding parties into the enemy base.

[dancam]

Some strategically placed Ivan bombed Legionnaire's can work a treat in the late game...

[cr@zyiv@n]

Iron Curtained Terror Drones and Flak Tracks loaded with Desolators or Bombscripts, depending on how much defense my opponent has, the bombscripts I use to take out power, while the Desolators kill infantry and do lots of damage to weak Yuri or Allied units, my tank colonne of about 15 Rhino's rolls in to level the place.

i like using about 5 prisms with 5 mirages infront of them. (maybe more if the enemies army is larger) Shoot at the base with the prisms and when the army comes to attack, the mirages shoot them. If it is a large group of men coming to attack, use the prisms to shoot at them too!

[Allied General]

Okay then SEAL IFV, works a dream especially with non redeployable MCV on.

[Banshee]

I usually appeal with tank rush where there is no option left or I'm too pissed off at the enemy. But I love, just love air strike...It's so nice... not Kirovs... but Eagles and stuff and you get a huge armada and go torturing the enemy until it falls... so good, but only AI accepts that, really :S

[Beowulf]

I love a huge batallion of basic units. Rushes are fun, especially when the enemy can't do anything to stop it.

I also love cheese tactics....

If you play StarCraft, then you know what I mean. Arbiters and Recall is a deadly combination.

[Mig Eater]

Any thing with a large range + protected by best tank

[Beowulf]

Mags, Gattlings Tanks and Master Minds are an ace combo.

[Heero6528]

regular GIs in front ofa few battle fortresses filled with GGIs are fun... tanks shoot the GIs first while the BFs pummel them

[Hrod89]

In skermishes I like chronosphereing a bunch of prism tanks into the enemy base.

[Deathscythe1911]

Hey you could also throw in some terrorists in Iron Curtained Flak Tracks. Once the Iron Curain wears off the fun begins...

[CJ_Backfire]

Prepare an airforce and a attack force..
Cut their power with spy send in the airforce on varius vital targets like CY WF barrack and powerplants (i realy mean a BIG airforce) also bomb some nasty units if they have any (like apoc mastermind ETC). Dont bomb superweapons since a superweapon takes alot of power and you whant them to have power offline.
Then when the planes are done send in attack force (many tanks and some mechinized infantry) that will blow em to peices..

[dancam]

Thats a very interesting plan CJ_Backfire, but I'd wager that against a talented opponent, that'd be tricky to implement.

[MaperRiz]

I like the flak/ivan rush.

[Deathscythe1911]

Oh if you can get em you could use Crono Ivans to take out half a base before the enemy takes em out

[Ash]

Allied: Defence, then IFV and Prism Tank assaults in later game, backed up with SERIOUS air-support to blow up fuck-everything before the assault. bye-bye CY AT LEAST before the force arrives, perhaps more if the enemy's well defended.

Soviet: Conscripts + Rhinos + Demo Trucks = Enemy becoming a distant memory

Yuri: Init Rush, backed up by MC units and Gatt Tanks. A couple of Discs to cut the power don't go amiss either.
