Command & Conquer - Red Alert Game Cheats
Get Allied & Soviet buildings:
------------------------------
Submitted by: Paul Murphy
I ussally play 8 player PC games allot, and this morning
i found a good trick. First of all select 0 tanks in the
skirmish menu, then keep on restarting a game until the
enemy's MCV is really close to it, then build a barracks
and 5 engeneers, send them all out to the main part of the
base, if you did it quickly enough then the base should be
yours (it changed colour), then simply take another engeneer
to repair it and you will have allied & soviet buildings
(except the war factory), but this cheat will only work if
you are the soviets and the enemy is the allies or the other
way around

When the game starts press Ctrl, Alt, Del, O, R, E, Enter.
Now Ore Truck collect ores everywhere. This works only with
allies.
Get your injured tank to service depot. When you hear repairing
noise get tank away to service depot. Now get a same tank to service
depot and it will be repaired ten time faster.

Build a Mine Layer and put in a group with something slow like Mammoth
Tanks. Then make them a group (Ctrl 1-9) and then a formation (f).
All the units will travel the speed of the Mine Layer.
Change aspects of the game:

Important:ALL WAYS CREATE A COPY OF RULES.INI BEFORE
CHANGING AS IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE UNLESS YOU CAN FIND
IT YOU WILL HAVE TO REINSTALL RED ALERT.
To change nearly all things in this game,open "rules.ini"
(in the folder in which you installed Red Alert)in
notepad(or something simular).If you scroll through
this file,you will see that the is a unit name in brackets
like this:[unit name].After that it will have what wepon
it uses, who can use them, like: "owner=allies,sovet"(if
both sovet and allies can buld this unit),and also there
will be all the different speeds of unit,cost and other
things. Before this section there are all the strenghs
of the different countries,and after the units there is
all the wepons.

If you want the units (including soldiers and tanks)
to attack on ground, just press CTRL and click on the
location you want to attack.
Hint:
When you are fighting against the enemy, bettter fight
with them on their nearest minerals so that they will get
destroyed when bombs are being poured! This way it will
help you to reduce their minerals and they will have no
choice but to come nearer to you get the minerals and you can
easily attack them.
This Hint works for allieds (only):

When U're fighting near bank of a river or sea, and Ur
enemy('s) are desturbing U. use mine layer to deploy
mines as close as posible to the water the will not be
able to deploy by sea again.(Do not put rocket luncher
or destroyes near the mines)
20 Tanks:
---------
Type in XPEINA518 when the game is loading and this will
start you off with 20 medium tanks.
No more silo's needed:
----------------------
If your silo's start getting full, just build
an expensive building. If the building is finished,
cancel the building.
Discover submarines:
--------------------
Select a gunboat or destroyer and move the cursor into
the radarmap. If the cursor turns into a attack cursor,
then there is a submarine.
Fast building of vehicles:
--------------------------
You need more than one warfactories for this. If a vehicle
is almost finished, quickly change the primary building and
start building the same type of vehicle. Both vehicles will
be finished at the same time.
Discover mines
--------------
If a building is finished and you get the placing - roster,
go with this building around your base. If a part of the
roster turn red and there is no obstacle near, then there
is a mine.
Here's a tactic of Red Alert
----------------------------
TanyaShift
----------
Build a ChronoSphere, build a barracks but don't deploy it,
hold the training of Tanya before end, and build a MCV.
When the ChronoShift is ready, Shift your MCV near your enemy's
base. Then deploy the barracks near it and make it your primary
building. Quickly click the Tanya you've holded and with that
Tanya; DEMOLISH your enemy's base!!!
Cruiser Speed Up
----------------
Play as the Allies and group the cruiser together with a
transport and then put them in formation. When they move
together to the same spot, the cruiser will have the same
speed as the transport.
Free Men
--------
Build a missile silo. When the missile is ready, sell
the silo and immeidately launch the missile. If you were
quick enough, the sale will have stopped and some troops
will come out of the silo.
Long Range Grenadiers
---------------------
In multiplayer or the regular game, play as the soviets.
Next, build a grenadier and have him force fire on the
ground around him. Right before he throws it, click
anywhere on the map and the greade will SAIL over to
that point.
Russian Tip
-----------
When playing as the Russians, build a Tech. Center.
After you build it, sell it. All the special characters
you get from the Tech. Center will still be available,
and you get back all that wasted energy you used on the
Te ch. Center. You can now build more Tesla Coils to
protect your base, and still have Tanya and the Mammoth
tank!
Sell Your Vehicles
------------------
To sell your vehicles, build a service depot and
place a vehicle on it. Next put the SELL cursor on
it and when it turns green press the left mouse button.
This doesn't work with V2 Rocket Launchers.
Selling Tanks and Harvesters
----------------------------
If you want to sell your vehicles, like the ones you
don't want or you are out of money and need that last
little bit then this is the code for you. Here is what
you do: build a Repair Facility and drive a tank or
vehicle onto it and while it is on the very edge put the
sell button on it and it will sell. (The sell icon will
be green if you catch it at the right time.) My suggestion
is to have the sell button ready.
Soviet Playing Tip:
-------------------
When playing as the Soviets, when you have a Iron
Curtain and a Missle Silo, send a tank into the enemy
base. When he is attacked, use the Iron Curtain on him.
When lots of enemys come around him, launch the atom bomb.

Engineer Capture Bug: When playing against more then 2
players, (AI or human, no difference) You can cancel a
hostile engineer attack.
Simply ally with the engineer right before he enters your
building. Instead of damaging or capturing it,
he'll fully repair it instead!

Build a cruiser and a transport. Group them together and
make a formation out of them. The cruiser is
moving at transport speed!
Hint:

Submitted by: El Batty Massive
Build 1 transport, 5 APC's & 25 infantry units of your choice.
Put all the infantry into the APC's, then load the 5 APC's into the transport.
When you deploy the APC's from the transport, deploy the infantry from the APC's,
so you'll end up with 25 infantry & 5 APC's.

For a lot of infantry, get the Airport, and make sure you have a good defense so
that you can withstand any attack, and keep sending paratroopers into your own base.
I ended up with over a handred men in my base, though I can\'t use them, my enemy
was on another island.
