The verdict
A campy, single-player-only Red Alert 3 expansion with wild new units, a Yuriko hero campaign and Challenge mode. Skip it if you want multiplayer, co-op, balance or long campaigns.
Great for
Red Alert 3 fans who want more campy, over-the-top solo content and tough challenge missions
Main risk
Short, punishing single-player-only content with no multiplayer or co-op, often not worth full price
