There was this one story where they tasked soliders to get past a AI camera. One of them did cartwheels, one hid in a Box like Snake and the other grabbed branches and walked forward slowly. 😂
I was 13 when I started playing RA2 on my own after watching my dad play it. alongside Generals it was my favorite game of the time and boy do I remember the sheer devastation of the PrismTank.
When I see the Prism Tank I remember one thing about Starwars. At the end of the Death Star lasers, there is actually a Kyber where the lasers meet, and that's what makes all the lasers turn into one main beam.
The prism tanks are so overpowered and always help me cheese my way through the missions. It's like a tank version of the Tal'darim's Destroyer ship in Starcraft II: Legacy of the Void. I wonder what a handheld Prism Rifle would be like in a C&C Renegade version of Red Alert. It's worth noting that this version of Albert Einstein has a longer lifespan than the real life one.
Mental Omega does explore this in the form of Siege Cadre, the cheapest siege unit you can get early on and exclusive to the Allies They carry a compact Prism rifle that can take down buildings and fire through walls but their range is shorter than a prism tank and are vulnerable to magnetic weapons which slows them down due to their plate armor If placed in an IFV, it becomes a bootleg Prism Tank
@@HungNguyen-vg1zqAnd depending on which sub-faction you play as, you might have a slightly tanky bootleg Prism Tank, anti-radiation & toxic bootleg Prism Tank or a really fast bootleg Prism Tank.
@@HungNguyen-vg1zq Not to mention the issue with power sources made it smoothly integrated the nerf applied to prism tanks. Logically, it made sense that the tower remains a big anti-ground defense because its hooked up to an ample source of power grid while the portable ones are more in seige & anti-infantry damage.
@@johndexterzarate6663 yeah, power supply is the biggest issue with prism technology, Prism tanks in Mental Omega are mostly relegated to demolishing buildings with slightly better effectiveness against ground units than Cadres
Even though the Red Alert game for the iPhone is pretty obscure (and no longer available, unfortunately), I think someone confirmed that the events of the game are canon. The game's setting is post-Yuri's Revenge, and cause the Allies came out much stronger from the merging of timelines, Prism technology has advanced to the extent that it took Cherdenko messing with the space-time continuum to reset the progress made by the Allies. The game recycles a lot of assets from Red Alert 3, but these reworked units used prism weaponry. The Legionnaire was a heavy infantry that wielded a prism beam weapon small enough for infantry to carry around (the sprite was reused from the Cryo Legionnaire). The Prism Tank was given an armor upgrade to resemble the Mirage Tank from Red Alert 3, but unlike the Mirage Tank, the Prism Tank could turn its turret to fire on its target. Lastly, the Ray Copter (using the Cryocopter model) is essentially a Prism Tank in flight, a helicopter gunship with a short ranged prism cannon. Based on these units, you can see how the Soviets got spooked into the development of their Time Machine, setting up the events of Red Alert 3.
Makes sense that they would have to be upgraded. The Soviets had superior industry and logistics before/during the events of RA2/YR. Also, they'd been preparing for their revenge for decades. The Allies were the underdogs who had to quickly improvise new battle plans and technologies to overcome them. If they went into a battle of attrition, they'd lose, so they had to plan quick attacks, sabotages and decapitation strikes. They needed a powerful siege unit to destroy the enemy's key structures quickly with just enough range to get past base defenses if Tanya/SEALs can't, and work well with the Chrono technology that was already on the way. Armor or even speed wasn't that important, and heavier armor would mean more load on such an experimental tank and could even make it unreliable to drive. And they'd need another kind of tank that would thrive in fast stealth operations and complement their slow fragile siege units. Then the Allies won the war, so they could address the flaws in their own technology in peace. During the Post-War Crisis, they figured how to make their Prism Tanks more powerful against other tanks, and more durable without making their drive trains, transmissions or whatever unreliable. Also, they weren't the unprepared underdogs anymore, so they didn't feel the need to be stealthy (no Mirage Tanks).
7:23 it’s worth noting that the footage they use for Tulum is in fact not Tulum but the Mayan city of Tikal. But in-game they made replicas of the actual buildings found at Tulum and recreated the geography around it as well.
Westwood was notorious for being geographically inaccurate(see Liberty Island in Lone Guardian), so color me impressed they got an entire Mayan ruin complex right.
@@rokva5771 At least in RA3, the only thing like that is the Chronosphere and Tanya's belt. The big second weapon is Cryogenics, with the Cryocopters, the orbiting cryo-satellite, the Cryo-Legionnaires and the fact that the punishment for War Crimes is to be put in Cryogenic suspension
Hey wash your hands before talking about the most disgusting tech FutureTech provided to the Allies! Don't wanna be spreading that Cryonavirus everywhere...
I have been waiting for this one. I don't make suggestions, because this channel seems good about grabbing all the bits that can be compiled. Let the content never end.
Finally! Prism technology!!! Nod: I got the Obelisk of Light! Allies: Oh really! I got Prism towers! This tower fires not just to the target, but bounce to the other tower like a mirror! Nod: That's it! I'm done with my scorpion tailed tower!!!
Can’t wait for your video on The Empire of the Rising Sun, in my opinion they’re often overlooked by the legacy factions of The Soviets and The Allies.
Prism is perhaps my favorite energy powers in RA2. Prism tanks are certainly useful in long range attacks towards infantry and structures (a little more effective than on vehicles unless the Prism tanks are at an elite level) together with Mirage tanks that are effective against vehicles and infantry. That's how I did it.
That "personal helicopter" Ackerman tried escaping on is Marine One. You know, the helicopter that *every* president has flown on since they started using a helicopter.
I always imagined prism weapons focused light into a single destructive point like a magnifying glass. Think like the original Martian Heat Ray that used a mirror and anything illuminated by it was outright incinerated (though that would fit more with the Mirage Tank's IR cannon)
13:00 The ironic thing is that while Ackermann had a point (the Soviets did end up betraying the Allies after all), he also had a huge ulterior motive to keep the Allied and Soviet at each others' throats, what's with him being a Japanese android infiltrator being the reason for the lack of Attack Dogs in his base and thus why it's so easy to send Spies into it.
I missed the charm of wacky but incredibly creative weapons design made by Westwood studio. We won't have such a great classic RTS like these nowadays...
The only reason I have to disagree with you is C&C Renegade... Running through a mission not knowing there was an Obelisk and then hearing it's charging up noise shook me when I played it as a kid. Otherwise past PTSD aside Prism Towers are scarier
The super weapon that comes out of Roosevelt's head in RA3 I dubbed 'The ultra-mega Roosevelt cannon' That's my head cannon on the subject..... I'll see myself out.
At 3:10, it could also be that the Prism Towers are firing in the infrared wavelength of light. In this case the passage of the infrared laser would heat the air and produce white light from the hot air, if the laser was sufficiently powerful.
This made me thinking. In RA1 Allies (which are esentially Western Europe) are quite backward with bunkers and turrets. Fancy toys like Phase tank or Chronotank are quite rare sight, chronosphere is useless. Circa 20 years later they managed not only to rebuild themselves, but also invent and popularize prism tech, chrono tech, stealth (Mirage Tank), weaponize weather AND create distinct units/structures. Sure, lots of that was thanks to certain Einstein, but still quite a feat.
I just realized how funny it is that an alternate history scenario where the Soviet Union led by a red Romanov tries to destroy America led by a guy named Dugin.
Как мне кажется, во второй части Призма была электролазером. Слабый лазер ионизировал атмосферу, создавая "тоннель" для последующего электроразряда. Так что это просто иной вид тесла-башни.

I recently found out about Mental Omega. An awesome and interesting alternative history of the Yuri's Revenge game. There's a ton more characters, lore, vehicle's and buildings. So that's plenty more videos for you 😄.
Addendum: Here is a list of reactions from Allied(well Americans actually) soldiers after watching the Doomsday Rushmore defense network destroy everything on sight(ehe 😏): Jefferson: - Jefferson, no! - Sweet mother of- *LASERS!* - They're never gonna believe this back in Omaha! Lincoln: - Why Honest Abe, why!? - But I visited your monument! - This is just so *WRONG!* Washington: - What the heck is up with Washington!? - Lasers... from their eyes! - *MY EYES!

It showed great restraint to not show Jenny McCarthy as Agent Tayna during the Mt Rushmore explanation. Speaking of, I'm looking forward to the Commando unit explanation. (Both Tiberium Wars and Red Alert.)
We already had the Commandos in videos for both Nod's and GDI's Infantry. Also I prefer Kari Wuhrer as Tanya, a blonde Tanya is just wrong(and the only thing wrong in Red Alert 3 for me).
IRL, Extrema Ultraviolet Lithography uses the short wave length and high energy density of light created by the vaporization of Tin to fabricate circuits measured in Angstroms (1/10th of a Nanometer). If this could be scaled up to a energy level that could match the RR3 weapons systems it would make for a hellish weapon far more powerfull than the Microwave based systems deployed by the US. That being said, the directed energy weapons used in real life use Microwaves and Infrared light not Blue or Ultraviloate because higher frequance are effected by the Earths atmosphere. Where a Infrared system can penetrate clouds, a Violate based system would be blocked by a fog bank. All that being said, if C&C:RR3's UV tech is powerful enough to overcome the interference of the atmosphere it would back orders of magnitude more energy into each shot than anything IRL. We are talking the energy needed to kick start Fusion in the National Ignition Facility.
There's one thing bugging me is RA3:U. That you need to capture for FutureTech plans of spectrum tower and mirage tank, despite both being FT inventions.
I personally think the RA3 mirage-prism tank shoul have kpt the original prism tank chasis and turrest then added the miage generatng shield to the side
I feel like the prism and spectrum towers are almost backwards going off what we see in game and what I assume the lore you're basing this off is. The prism tower in all your footage is showing a blue, maybe cyan beam so is a single wavelength as per your laser description. The spectrum tower is apparently a laser weapon but then clearly shows a multicoloured beam which goes against your laser description. Also the name spectrum implies multiple colours, like a rainbow or Captain Scarlet. I guess prism can also imply multiple colours with the whole white light in, colours come out but at least the visuals stick to a single colour.
So you're telling me, the soviets went back in time to kill Einstein because of prism weapons but inadvertently making Prism weapons technically more powerful and have more utility with the just the downside of worse range?
I forgot to mention the Yuri defense statues from the mission Escape Velocity, which function similarly to the Allies Prism Towers. So this could imply that Yuri managed to steal the Prism technology from the Allies in order to create these statues.

I feel like the prism and spectrum towers are almost backwards going off what we see in game and what I assume the lore you're basing this off is.
The prism tower in all your footage is showing a blue, maybe cyan beam so is a single wavelength as per your laser description.
The spectrum tower is apparently a laser weapon but then clearly shows a multicoloured beam which goes against your laser description. Also the name spectrum implies multiple colours, like a rainbow or Captain Scarlet.
I guess prism can also imply multiple colours with the whole white light in, colours come out but at least the visuals stick to a single colour.
