« YURI'S REVENGE: SQUARED »
CIVILIAN CHANGES

Now, while we aren't exactly in charge of what goes on in nature or in our civilian cities, I have discovered that many of you do not even know how to utilise nearby civilian and natural units to aid in your war effort.  Believe it or not, some of them can be quite useful in support and assault roles.

Collectively, all civilian units you spot now give you experience should you destroy/kill them in proportion to their usefulness and/or deadliness in the field.  In a similar manner, grinding these units also vary logically, with more powerful or useful units giving you more cash back.

(Players no longer have to worry about Presidents being the source for quick cash.  Sorry cheaters!)


Name Description
Cow

What could this reconnaissance photo mean?  I realise critics have been warning of a buildup of methane gas emissions for some time now, but this just looks ridiculous!  Could Yuri have been experimenting with these helpless cows to destabilize their bowel movements?  You must find out Commanders!
 

Other Animals

Remember, most animals you will encounter (both past and present day) in the terrain as you battle will be wild and will attack with anything they have if they are provoked or hungry.  The severity of their attacks and their strength vary depending on the type of animal you are facing, with the larger ones even able to assault vehicles and structures!  Generally you wouldn't consider some of these threats, but I understand how nervous you might get seeing one of the more dangerous animals go wandering through your base.
 

Civilians

As the war drags on, more and more civilians are finding it necessary to arm themselves.  We try our best to protect these innocent people, but the Soviets invaded us in our own country, so tempers and paranoia are understandably high.  Civilian attacks range from highly trained government agents dealing Uzi and Pistol damage on the par with standard troops, to those redneck Texans and their revolvers.  Even some basic civilians have pistols, although you wouldn't find them too much of a threat unless you're already injured.  Firearm experience plays a key role in how much damage their attacks do.
 

Celebrity Heroes

"Some of these Hollywood Civilians are pretty tough characters." ― General Carville

The General sure wasn't kidding.  These celebrity actors are just as powerful as any hero unit we can muster, although their specialties are more localized within a particular group:  Gunslinger Clint Eastwood excels are picking off infantry with his custom S&W Revolver, Arnold Schwarzenegger can mow through both infantry and vehicles with his huge explosive chain gun, and Sylvester Stallone comes packed with a combo Machine Gun/Grenade Launcher to take out infantry and structures alike.

Graphical Enhancements: Clint Eastwood now has his own unique image instead of sharing a common Texan outfit.
Sound Enhancements: All three heroes have their original voices restored from the pre-v1.001 game.

 

Name Description
Cars

Civilian Cars of all sorts litter the streets of the abandoned cities and also illustrate the stubbornness of some of our country's citizens to remain where they are even against all odds.  If you're ever in need of a quick, cheap transport, these could work quite well.  Their capacity varies depending on the size of the vehicle, but are all pretty nimble so don't expect them to last long in battle.
 

Vans & Trucks

Both Vans and Trucks generally behave in the same way as cars, but are usually slower and with increased transport capacity.  Some are even able to carry the larger Brutes and Terror/Chaos Drones!  The one exception here is the Garbage Truck which serves a much more valued purpose in the field.  By 'deploying' the Truck, you basically turn it into a mobile Yuri Grinder where you can send anything, from tanks to (god forbid) human beings, to get some or all of their value back in cash.  Garbage Truck's can be deployed anywhere on clear ground, but cannot be undeployed again after deployed.  It will remain in that spot until destroyed.
 

Busses

Busses also function as transports, but they boast the highest capacity loads of all civilian vehicles.  The largest Bus: the Double Decker, can fit in a whopping 10 passengers (less if some are Brutes or Terror/Chaos Drones)!  Fully loaded Busses can leave behind quite a nasty surprise if used right...
 

Construction

This country was built on the courage and commitment of our construction workers, and their vehicles are their tools.  Their roles are varied should you obtain them: Excavators and Backhoe Loaders function as Miners, while Bulldozers can be 'deployed' and other base structures can be built off of it (think of it as another MCV, but it cannot undeploy).  Finally, Dump Trucks are very unique in that they store cash reserves in their storage area instead of passengers, where that cash is then safe from Spies or other threats to Refineries.  When built, you pay a large extra premium which is the cash that goes inside it, and at any time you may choose to 'deploy' it, destroying the Dump Truck and revealing the money in a crate which can be recollected (by any side mind you, so make sure it's close-by.)  This unit could also be useful in transferring funds to allies in team battles.  Take note that if you destroy a Dump Truck before it has time to prep it's cargo, the money contained will also be lost.
 

Emergency

Local Emergency vehicles can't usually do much when up against enemy armies, but they can still support us in our efforts to resist invasion.  Police Cars, Armored Cars, SWAT Vans and Fire Trucks act as transports from their appropriate sections described earlier (although boasting faster speed and stronger armor in places.)  Ambulances on the other hand are quite useful for our forces, as they are the only vehicle, both civilian or otherwise, that can drive around patching up our infantry troops, almost instantly healing the injured back to full health.  To have an Ambulance in your base is the best way to keep your infantry forces refreshed and ready for battle.
 

Trains

The joys of public transport.  Without this reliable system, many of our passenger and cargo services would never run.  It's the train networks that surround most developed countries that help maintain our war effort, so don't be surprised if they become mission-critical units in upcoming missions, or you see them and stations nearby during skirmish battles.
 

Miscellaneous

There are of course many other types of civilian vehicles in the cities around the world, and many of them can have beneficial uses for your armies.  Among some of these are RV's, Tractors and Cable Cars which can carry passengers (in which RV and Jeep passengers can fire out from the inside like a Battle Fortress) and V3 Transports that serve as Demolition Trucks by detonating their stored V3 warheads.


That completes the briefing Commanders.  Now that you are familiar with everything you should see on the battlefield, it is time to go out there and fight for your country!  For freedom!

Continue the overall briefing with an explanation on the changes to various game setup options.
