When you say limited movement... you mean like the GI puts down sandbags, and then he can move about 1-2 steps inside?

Yes

i never expected the ore fields to have so much detailed work put into. i will probably get entertained while playing by just staring at the drill.

[drunkill]

[danpaul88]

Hopefully sooner

[TeamWolf]

Oh cool, ty for the info

[Guest Xenon560]

will AR first release just be Allies and Soviets or will it be the expansion with Yuri

[cfehunter]

Yuri's team is going to be an extra if we really feel like doing it, and there's 0% chance of it being in release 1

You won't see Yuri for a while, if at all. But the soviets do have a Yuri unit so you will see him in that sence.

but IF you at any time do add a yuri side will you then remove yuri(along with the other buildings and structures he took with him in YR) from the soviet side?

Of course.

[Guest Xenon560]

so i technically this isnt Yuris Revenge its just Red Alert 2 then y are there units tht were only in the expansion pack like the Batlle Fortress or Guardian GI

Thats Allies and Soviets, not Yuri's side. we are including the extra units for their relevant sides.

[cfehunter]

ok here's the (terrible) cover story:

 

The mod is set at the time just before yuri left the soviet union, all the new units have just been put into field testing and the yuri clones are still part of the soviet union.

 

The allies still have robot tanks because even tho yuri isnt his own army yet, soviet psychic forces are still a big threat.

[Guest r315r4z0r]

You could of just said "It is like that because I said so" and I would of believed you

[cfehunter]

ok then, it's because i said so >_>

 

besides that cover story was decided on before the mod was even called Apocalypse Rising

[Guest =NX=VinGummi2]

and there is a little "hole" in that story, as yuri left that soviets in the last few missions of the soviet campaign but there soviet hadn't got any of those buildings they got in YR

[Guest Xenon560]

the story could be after the soviet mission but before yuris revenge where soviets could be researching all their new technology but yuri hasnt quite made his army yet and is still hiding.

It's all correct in the canon of the universe but we don't need an actual story until we decided to do a singleplayer mode.

[Guest =NX=VinGummi2]

but as I said Soviet did NOT have any yuri's in the last mission(s) and they didn't had any new tech either.

Conclusion Soviet lost all form of Yuri BEFORE they got the new tech

[Guest cmatt42]

I don't see how that contradicts what he said.

[Guest =NX=VinGummi2]

CnC Rules said the AR story could be After RA2 but before YR, but by having yuri it has to be before RA2 ends as they leave soviets in some of the last missions, where having the YR tech it needs to be AT LEAST after RA2 ends.

There is no mention in the Allied Campaign of this, only in the Soviet Campaign which isn't the one that leads to Yuri's Revenge.

 

Romanov gets killed in the Soviet Campaign, but not in the Allied one so the campaigns can't be interlaced either.

cfehunter edit: please dont use huge text and messup the page.

[Guest lucibrium]

Herr... Fuck Off.

 

 

 

 

Grizzly is VERY nice. It looks so much better than the RA2 one.

[Guest nimbus]

An idea for a cover story: New technology was brought in from the future using a chronoshpere. It was in such short supply that it had only reached the testing grounds before yuri split from the soviets. The scirmishes in Apocalypse rising was within these testing grounds.

 

 

I haven't really thought it through, but it seems a reasonable enough cover story.

 

Another one: The soviets capture one of yuri's cloning facilities.

 

Also, in RA2, it was called "Yuri", not a clone...

[Guest Kakashi]

Who cares for a cover story, it get's obsolete the second the yuri-faction get's ingame anyway. Also it's not important that it's 100% canon, it's just multiplayer. Canon is for singleplayer.
