Prism Weapons - Command and Conquer - Red Alert

Taking a look at the Allies Prism weapons from Red Alert 2 and the Spectrum weapons of Red Alert 3. Chapters posted below.
Edit: 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.

Soviets: We have Nuke Silo
Allies: We have Chronosphere with 9 Elite Prism Tanks
Soviets: *GG*

"Up to nine prism towers can be linked at a time. Additional tower(s) will not be added into the chain".

This and the Tesla. Just the most memorable weapons in the Red Alert series.

The Mirage tank was the best. "Ain't no one here but us trees."

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.

Soviet: your technology are suck
Allied: OH REALLY

[MrLense]

Oh man, I remember back in the early 2000s my Dad who's in his late 50s now showed me the prism tank meta.

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.

Prism weapons and a science lesson. Great Friday indeed.

I like the red alert 3 version of the prism tank it has an accent.

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.

IFV loaded with SEALS and Prism Tank late game rush still hits hard.

"Positioning data, received"

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.

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.

[Mobysimo]

Hope you cover the Allies second big technology, Cryogenics!

[michaelbeck]

The Rushmore mission always makes me laugh when I think of it.

Just a fancy version of Archimedes' Mirror really.
