Walkthrough for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3's 'Taking Back Ice Harbor' mission. Includes objectives, base building, naval combat, and tips for defeating Tatsu.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Launch all Infantry from the Bullfrogs onto the center of the island to damage the enemy base. Use available Stingrays to finish off remaining forces and structures, especially Mecha Tengu.
  2. 2
    Once the Japanese Base is destroyed, your MCV will arrive. Set up your base on the western side of the island, while Zhana establishes hers on the east.
  3. 3
    Construct a Barracks and Naval Yard, followed by Defences. Build Refineries next to Ore Nodes immediately.
  4. 4
    Send an Engineer into the Dry Dock to the east. Use Bullfrogs to deploy Infantry to the Generators. Destroy or Capture the Generators to disable the turrets guarding the Dreadnoughts.
  5. 5
    Address the enemy Mecha Bay and Refinery to the north. Eliminate the Collector and any remaining Tengu. Consider capturing the Refinery and building an Ore Collector from the Naval Yard.
  6. 6
    Use Stingrays to destroy remaining enemy defenses.
  7. 7
    Advance towards the Imperial Military Admin located on the northeast part of the island. Capture the Hospital to secure local resources.
  8. 8
    The Japanese forces in the northwest ocean are a significant threat. Use Stingrays and Dreadnoughts to destroy their Construction Yard and Battleships.
  9. 9
    Move to the western part of the mainland. Deploy Infantry to the dock, liberate Engineers and Barracks, and destroy nearby Imperial forces. Use the captured Barracks to produce additional troops.
  10. 10
    When Zhana's base is attacked, use the Magnetic Satellite to eliminate the ambush force, then finish off any survivors with your Units.
  11. 11
    Use Dreadnoughts to destroy defenses guarding the docks and the Admin. Launch a mass attack on the Administrative Building, remembering Stingrays are amphibious. Alternatively, use Bullfrogs to deploy Infantry over the cliff to destroy the Generator, disabling the Admin's turrets.
  12. 12
    After the Administrative Building takes damage, Tatsu will deploy a Nanoswarm Hive and a King Oni. Destroy the King Oni, then finish off the Administrative Building to complete the mission.
Tips
  • The Green Army starts with more War Bears and fewer Conscripts.
  • Coordinate base placement with Zhana, deciding who takes which side of the island.
  • During Japanese assaults on the island, two Magnetic Satellites can be used to significantly weaken the ambush force.
  • Dreadnoughts are only controllable by Red (Soviet) forces.
Mission Complete. Leads to the next stage of the Soviet Campaign.
