Master the Omega Program mission in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3. Learn strategies for Soviets, Allies, and Empire, plus detailed walkthroughs and tips for defeating Takara and Yuriko.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Build Defences around your base entrances and capture the northern Oil Derrick. Build another Defence to the south.
  2. 2
    Produce Anti-Infantry Armour and potentially a few Commandos. Concentrate fire on the incoming Yurikos; the Armour is highly effective against them.
  3. 3
    With a strong force of Armour, attack one of Takara's bases. Her primary defences are Infantry, which the Armour can easily destroy along with her Structures. Repeat this for all of Takara's bases.

Faction-Specific Tips:

  • Soviets: The Sickle can counter Yuriko effectively. Use Engineers to build Battle Bunkers filled with Natashas. Reapers can attack Takara's retreating MCVs.
  • Allies: Heal any injured Tanyas with Engineers. Avoid putting Tanyas into Riptide ACVs. The Pacifier FAV might be a better choice than ACVs.
  • Empire: The Defender VX is effective against Yurikos.

Strategy by Helix25 (Allies):

  1. Suggested Faction: Allies. Send your starting Tanya to the Northeast Takara base to destroy it before she can produce a Yuriko. Beware of Collectors; use Time Belt to restore health after destroying Refineries. If Tanya's health is low, destroy all but the last Refinery for heroic status.
  2. Build 2 Boot Camps and Refineries. The first Boot Camp should spam cheap Attack Dogs (8-10). Send 4-5 dogs west of your base and 4-5 southwest in the water. Keep building Dogs and send 7-8 to link up with Tanya at the destroyed base. Aim for 40-50 Dogs total.
  3. When Yurikos arrive, sacrifice 1 Dog to bait Yuriko's secondary attack, then have the remaining 3-4 Dogs attack. This tactic works on multiple Yurikos due to AI limitations.
  4. With the Dog/Tanya force, destroy the western base using the same Dog tactics against Yurikos. Be cautious: Yuriko can instantly kill Tanya if she locks on. Use Tanya to eliminate Warriors, which are effective against Dogs.
  5. Send your combined force of 15+ Dogs and 6-7 Javelins to the southwest base and wipe it out.

Strategy by JB (Soviets):

  1. Suggested Faction: Soviets. Send Natasha to destroy the southern base, garrisoned in buildings when possible.
  2. Spam Twinblades and conduct guerrilla warfare on Takara's base, targeting the Construction Yard and Dojo first.
  3. Build Sentries to defend against Yurikos. Retreat Twinblades over water or difficult terrain when Yuriko approaches, or attack her during turns.
  4. Continue this hit-and-run tactic until Takara's base falls.
