Detailed walkthroughs for all missions in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2, including unit strategies, base building tips, and objective guides to help you conquer the Soviets.

This guide covers the missions for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2, detailing strategies for each objective, unit deployment, and base management.

Mission #1

  1. Use Tanya (Unit 1) to destroy boats and assist GI's against Conscripts. Keep GI's deployed.
  2. After air-dropped Conscripts are dealt with, undeploy GI's (Unit 2) and move Tanya and GI's left across the bridge.
  3. Move Tanya up and right to assist GI's, then up and left to find a crate.
  4. While Tanya moves, redeploy GI's from Unit 2 to new GI's, forming one unit and moving them up-right to a McBurger Kong.
  5. Move Tanya right and up to another crate, then to the McBurger Kong.
  6. Have GI's enter the McBurger Kong, then the gas station to its right. Garrison these to automatically defeat air-dropped Conscripts.
  7. Send Tanya to the Fort. Once captured, deploy attack dogs to intercept Soviet troop drops and protect the Chrono Harvester.
  8. Build a barracks. Train two Engineers and 15 GI's.
  9. Have the first Engineer fix the bridge.
  10. Move Tanya across the bridge, eliminating troops and shooting barrels near the warehouse. Avoid sentry guns.
  11. Use Tanya to clear a path to the Soviet war factory and the bottom-left of the base. Capture one with an Engineer.
  12. Use GI's to destroy V3 rocket launchers.
  13. After capturing the war factory, build tanks. Use 2-3 tanks to destroy remaining guns, then the last V3.
  14. Have Tanya destroy the Soviet base.

Mission #2

  1. Have Tanya eliminate Conscripts. Do not pick up the initial crate.
  2. When Rocketeers appear, move them to the far bottom-left of the map to find two more.
  3. Move Rocketeers to the top-left to eliminate 3 Conscripts and an attack dog.
  4. Move Tanya and crew to pick up the money crate.
  5. Move Rocketeers to the top-right.
  6. After Tanya's group picks up the crate, move them to the top-right as well.
  7. Move Rocketeers down to an ore patch and destroy Soviet ore miners. Then, eliminate Conscripts and a tank.
  8. Move Tanya to the ore patch, then down to the lake. Swim across, kill the lone Conscript, and move into the base to destroy Flak Guns.
  9. With Flak Guns destroyed, move Rocketeers in to destroy Sentry Guns and the Guard House, avoiding damage to the base.
  10. Move in remaining troops. As Engineers are paradropped, begin recapturing your base.
  11. Build a Power Plant, 4 Chrono Mines, and 15 Rocketeers.
  12. After miners are built, start building tanks.
  13. When you have 20-25 tanks, group them and move them back to the starting point to grab a crate. Continue building tanks.
  14. Move tanks right to destroy three trucks and pick up crates.
  15. Move tanks right again, then up to the far side of the Soviet base, near barrels by the wall.
  16. Move Rocketeers down to an enemy ore patch and kill the miners.
  17. Use tanks to shoot the barrels, then move in to destroy the MCV and power plants.
  18. Move in Rocketeers to destroy the remaining Soviet forces.

Mission #3

  1. Build a Power Plant. Garrison the building next to the first bridge with GI's.
  2. Move remaining GI's to the next bridge and garrison the building next to it.
  3. Build a Barracks. Train 3 Engineers and repair the three garrisoned buildings.
  4. Build an Ore Refinery, then a War Factory. Build 5 Chrono Harvesters.
  5. While harvesters build, train 20 Rocketeers. Use them to defend against incoming attacks. Build an Airforce Command Center.
  6. Begin building 25-30 tanks, followed by 20 IFVs.
  7. While IFVs build, train 15 GI's and 5 Engineers. Use them to fill the IFVs.
  8. Scout the Soviet base with Rocketeers to locate the Soviet Barracks.
  9. Once ground troops are ready, capture the Soviet Barracks and other buildings.
  10. If the Soviet Barracks is captured, train 15 Tesla Troops and build 15 IFVs, filling them with Tesla Troops. Otherwise, build many tanks, prioritizing Soviet tanks if possible.
  11. Proceed past the Washington Monument to the Soviet base. Destroy the Psi Beacon.

Mission #4

  1. Use Rocketeers to destroy cannons.
  2. Move Destroyers into the bay to clear a landing zone for troops, watching for submarines.
  3. Deploy the MCV and use ground troops to eliminate threats. Capture as much Soviet infrastructure as possible. Build at least 4 miners.
  4. Option 1: Build numerous tanks, move them over the right bridge, and destroy the target.
  5. Option 2: Build Destroyers, proceed up the river, destroy submarines, Flak Tracks, and guns, then find and destroy the target.

Mission #5 (Battle Lab)

  1. Disguise your spies.
  2. Move Tanya up and left slowly, engaging any enemies. Proceed to barrels next to a fence with cows. Save the cows.
  3. Go right to a farm with barrels, then right and follow the road. After a Tesla Trooper, the road ends. Continue in that direction to find GI's.
  4. Move up and follow the terrain to a Tesla Coil. Destroy it by shooting the barrels.
  5. Enter the base, avoiding Tesla Coils, and proceed to another Tesla Coil. Destroy it by shooting barrels.
