Red Alert Remastered - Allies Mission 8 - Protect the Chronosphere [Hard] 

"Alright the new commander has arrived" "Good we can't hold the bombardments any longer and..." "He told us to sell everything." "Wha...!?" "EVERYTHING!"

I always found it funny how cutscenes will show humans going through the Chronosphere when ingame that is certain death...

A nice nod to the Philadelphia experiment.

AI against Brutal Level Player

Stavros: "Do tou have defended the chronospher" Commander: "Yes, and we have robbed the Soviet technology" Stavros: "Good, now reinforcements arrive to destroy the Soviet Base here" Commander: "Soviet base?"

I was playing through this mission earlier today on hard. My god it took me several tries and once I finally succeeded I couldn't help but check youtube to see how everyone else did it; was not disappointed. Have to say you made it look almost effortless; from watching this it seems having the MCV deploy near the chronosphere actually endangers it; safer to keep the MCV as far away from it as possible lol. The attack forces very much lose interest in where the chronosphere is and instead go after where you deployed the MCV miles away; in turn making it less likely to get blown up. Of course like most C&C missions the AI is in a bit of a sleep mode and will only perform certain actions when your MCV deploys too.

Ah yes, returning to true "I'm ten years old and this is my superbase" form.

So far this has got to be the most frustrating level on hard mode, I’ve beaten it on normal, which was a breeze. But god damn does that Buff/De-Buff hurt, one V2 gets through and it’s all over… Played like a champ good sir!

Just finished the other version of this mission. Held the line while building medium tanks, then pressed a counter offensive. Took em out and just waited out the timer. Felt immensely satisfying.

i was getting extremely worried for those attack dogs

I just tried this this in the Open RA version. Now I am nowhere near good enough to do it anyway, but I think it might be impossible in that version: among other things, you can only build in the control zone around your MCV, walls can't be sold for money, you can't sell buildings and keep the tech options they unlocked, and you can't build a war factory without a barracks first. The more videos like this I see, the more I think all the 'balance' they introduced represents a loss in chaotic fun.

It might seem cheesy but this is how some missions just have to be done lol. Nice job.

My tactics playing CNC now have changed from when I was a kid. I always now build a good 4 or 5 ore trucks to get as much as possible, and three war factories. With 3 War Factories you can churn a tank out in about two seconds, so building an attack force can be done pretty quickly, depending on the Ore coming in. When I did this mission day before yesterday, I did the above and attacked. Flattened the Soviet base and spent the next 20 minutes just waiting for the timer to tick down. A few Soviet units came in off map and were promptly stomped on. I don't even bother building defenses anymore. My tanks serve the role of defense while inside the base, and when you flatten the enemy and win the map.....you don't need static defenses anyway haha!

You are doing really well at the leaderboards

May I ask why use the Yaks to attack the troops first at 12:35? Thanks!

Second half I was like "damn...must be a massive wave coming near the end..." Then realized this was Red Alert does MTV Cribbs

Why did you sell the power plant at the start to just rebuild it?

How were you allowed to build a war factory so far from your main constructions hub guy?

Why do you damage the silos before capturing them?

It sucks that this mission doesn't end early if you eliminate all the soviets. I think that would have been more fun- gives players a reason to actually attack rather than just turtle up inside the base.

Are you going to do the Soviet campaign?

Chronosphere is the most pointless weapon in RA 1, I mean I built one in the last mission and it did nothing for me, I was better off building a few light tanks since tank spamming easily wins that level.

its not working if i try same like u do .. they attack me in north and i lose everytime

What is the purpose of the green civilian area on this mission?

I can't block the damn transports.

Why is the map completely revealed at 4:18 ??? (O_O) (Long Time no played this gem)

If this is on hard, where's the starting mammoth tank? Iv been getting rolled in 30 secs to 2 minutes in some tries.

I'm guessing 8A is harder to pull this off?

Why all the dog and airstrips? I’m stuck on this level

Just do shitloads of light tanks and it's a breeze

Hi Stu

How did all the fog get cleared?

Why all the dogs? lol

Maybe add "South" to the title ;)

Have you Play with mods?

Always hated this mission

This mission sucks

Damn, the acting in these videos are horrible. That fake German accent lol. Very dated. What a letdown in an otherwise great remaster. They should start a Kickstarter campaign or something to get money to refilm these things. With the success of the remaster I bet people would get onboard.
