Red Alert 2: [YR] - Paris Tower, Mayan Pyramid & Yuri Statue

- Here are three major defensive structures that you meet only in the campaigns. Those structures can be added in any map through a map editor maintaining their abilities.
• Paris Tower
The Paris Tower is found in the filth mission "City of Lights " of the Soviet Campaign in RA2. It's one of the most memorable missions with the "giant" tesla coil. In-game this is perhaps the most terrifying structure since it has a very long range, extreme attack speed and outstanding damage.
• Mayan Pyramid
The Mayan Pyramid is found in the ninth mission "Sun Temple" of the Allied campaign in RA2. It's an effort of the Soviets to replicate the Prism technology. The Mayan Pyramid is a much better version of the Prism Tower being one of the best towers in the entire game.
• Yuri Statue
The Yuri Statue is found in the fifth mission "Escape Velocity" of the Soviet campaign in YR. The Statue has a shape of Yuri's face and is equal in damage with a Prism tower. However, it attacks much faster and is a much more durable building. Between these three structures, Yuri's Statue can't be compared with the power of the other two.

Now we know that structure with the most damage is the Eiffel Tower, and the unit with the most damage is the elite dreadnought.
Yes, but I don't know if elite MIGs may surpass the dreadnought in damage (it is also difficult to consider if 1 MIG or the 4 of them that comes in elite)
@@ignacioj6263 You can test that with simple ini editing. Hell you don't even need to test it you can just look at the file lol
can you write an elite dreadnought timecode pls?
@@ahmetsezginn pink floyd
If only Elite Aegis can attack land units...
did the mayan tower just survive a nuke by losing only 2 squares of hp
Human sacrifice finally pays off.
The Mayans were so advanced
It looks like it has a damage cap unlike the other two, but it has less hp
Russian tech

yuri's head statue/towers should have been suped up psychic towers.... mind control more units, faster, and with longer range.
I was thinking of constant Yuri's ability to deploy
Yes but it would have been impossible to finish its story mission.
@@isaiahdepp Nah, you have siege units and a lot of conscripts in that story.
@@isaiahdepp not really. Past week I finished it very easy: when you destroy Yuri's naval shipyard, all of his forces just rush into your location. Its quite easy to kill them all with proper defense.
Nah he already have the psychic beacon
The Eiffel Tower is as overpowered as I remember :o
We have to research ancient Mayan technology, so we'll learn how to build nuke-proof structures.
Ah, yes.
Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge.
The only RTS games where the Eiffel Tower, the Mayan Pyramids and the statues in Easter Island serve as defence structures.
Now the only thing we need to make the Statue of Liberty into a weapon that throws bombs of liberty.
Too bad it was destroyed right at the start of RA2. What a shame...
Funny thing because the heads of Mount Rushmore from RA3 are pretty much as strong as the Mayan Pyramids and that one of the heads has a cannon that can level Moscow in 1 shot.
You mean changing the statue of liberty to a big ass robot of liberty prime?.
Democracy is NOT negotiable. (lol)
So....................... basically, Liberty Prime from Fallout?
7:50 fun fact: Prism Tower and Yuri Statue share the PrismShot weapon. Meaning they should also share the reload delay, but in-game they don't.
Odd.
because prism tower is delay by charge sequence
It’s also interesting to see that each tower has its own armor type of some sort, making them selectively strong/weak against certain types of attacks.
lol the ending ... "BIG DEAL" .. :D
Yuri Statue, Tanya's Prism Tower, Boris's Eiffel Tower. Excellent test video btw really fun xD
now... damage crate that Eiffel Tower up!
Always loved and admired how well Westwood animated the destruction of the famous landmarks like the Paris Tower...
I mean look at the way it falls down - thats a pinnacle in the 2D animation IMO

We're going to Paris!
Girls: Paris! Wow how fabulous!
Boys: 8:30
Finally something underpower from Yuri.
@@goldman1115 all RA2:YR tournament matches is Yuri vs Yuri matches. And yeah, there's no counter to magnetron juggling your tanks, or Gatling + mastermind combo. And also all Yuri units (including ore miner) stronger than it's analogs from other sides, except lasher tank which is basically grisly. So yes, Yuri is OP.
I'm pretty partial with the who "Yuri OP" situation.
The reason why Soviets are high in the tier list, especially playing Iraq(the only one top tier players choose anyway) is because of how fast they can get a hold of superior workhorse units, the Rhino Tank and Desolator. Which has a strict, but easy to follow, but hard to master strategy. Granularly, it boils down to the skill of Tank control, redirecting damage to cannon fodder units and Desolator micro.
However the tables turn once a Yuri player stalls long enough(which is very difficult) for Battle Lab tech. Since the only counter to Masterminds is air units which is countered by gatling tanks. Yuri deathball(Magnetron, Gatling, Mastermind) is really tough and not a lot people will bother countering it because it's too strong. Yes, the mastermind overloads but those are tanks not under your control. Gatling Tanks shred cannon fodder, and Magnetrons if micro'd correctly is pretty annoying to deal with because again these are tanks out of your control. These are in the assumption if the Yuri player is at this skill level though.
@@goldman1115 may I ask where you watch and play Online
@@goldman1115 People ban Yuri from the match because it OP. People do it in pretty much in all of their lobby. If you see Soviet vs Soviet or Ally vs Soviet, it was because they ban Yuri.
@@goldman1115 I have consistently 1 vs 3 other players in pub(Me being Yuri but the other 4 can't be Yuri). Try it yourself sometime. Yuri is OP
I think the Tesla troopers when they charge the Eiffel tower give it more range not more power. I think that's what I remember from the campaign mission but you might have to double check that.
The french really know how to defend
I'm disappointed in skirmish map Paris Tower cannot be lighted up like in the mission 😅
I guess there are two kinds of Paris towers in the game, one like a normal structure and the other that can be energized, only occurring in RA2 campaign.
Yeah thats why i idioticly rushed the tower with tesla troopers
The Paris Tower in this map work. The difference is you capture it with an engineer.
czcams.com/video/fW4cSMMWx_E/video.html
Even against the Prism Tank (which we can all agree is the cheat tank in the Allied faction) can't destroy it even with it's range is astonishing. Finally something that can counter Magnetrons and Prism Tanks.
... like Grand Cannons?
@@ImaginaryNumb3r Yeah, if only one. However, you don't build only one Prism Tanks or Magnetrons. You build many of them. The Eiffel Tower has long range, fast fire rate and can take a couple of damage.
Anyone can figure out the rest.
Now TG, I want you to try this: Deploy an Eiffel tower inside a hard enemy AI base and lets see the destruction it causes.
Fighting btutal France with grand canon and effile tower will always haunt me.
U always put extra clips at the end of the video, keep it up ur doing good mate. Also I like ur videos as a Ra2 and Yuri fan keep it up, thanks for the content.
Wow, it seems the Paris Tower is designed to one-shot nearly everything - not surprising, since you can see it in action for a very brief time before that Paris mission ends.
Ironically the mod Triple Power 3.0 (A mod made by a Thai guy) that I'm playing, Yuri's Statue is a one shot kill. The modders buffed it. Also if you cap a Secret Lab in that mod it will allow you to build one of these three monstrosities depending on your faction. The cost is 100,000 bucks and takes a long time to build. Another thing is you can move the MCV to the enemy base and make sure the building is ready, unpack your MCV and place it boom player defeated.
It makes sense. Both Eiffel Tower and Mayan Pyramid are supposed to be OP and late in their levels, helping you win, while the Yuri Statue is supposed to be an obstacle to overcome, which should be quite possible even with head-on attack.
Pyramid also has some weird armor types with that Nuke Resistance.
One of my favourite CZcams channels!
Idea for testing:
I noticed a few times, that the elite IFV (no unit inside) changes the attack explosion animation when aquiring the "firepower upgrade" crate, and I noticed that change with the elite Prism tank as well. Are there any other elite units that change attack animation when they have that power crate? Please test :)
3:42 I think it just help when you have a power offline
czcams.com/video/FvEsoL7M2Lw/video.html plz visit my channel and give feed back
Not enough units in the post-credits scene. Need hundreds!!!
The Mayan Tower is made of "concrete armor" (lol), which is why different attacks destroyed them at different times. The Apocalypse does reduced damage to concrete (full to the rest) while the Prism indiscriminately does 2x to all structures. It can be inferred that the Mayan Tower has less HP than the others, but the others are non-concrete structures, making the Apoc kill them more quickly than the Prism. They both excel against structures, but while Prisms hit concrete harder, Apocs do more DPS to wood and steel.
8:58 NOO NOT THE PYRAMID! now the mummy will go to the maya pyramid instead
Not enough tesla troopers... Need at least a hundred of them... This will solve the power crisis!
Forget the french grand cannon for defence... I want the Eiffel tower!!!
What did we learn about the Mayan Towers....
1. Use its own weapon against them...nukes? Noooo you must use Prism tanks to destroy theeeeem!
2. YR ones are broken. In vanilla Red Alert 2 they do not function without power.
3. Soviets can handle prism tech much better than the Allies...good thing they never get to use them...or a bad thing? Depends on which side you look at it from.
Neko_ValentinE_Butterfly Ha Ha. The Soviet prismatic tower must be STRONGER than the pathetic capitalist prototype.
The Soviet prismatic tower is much stronger than that of the capitalists, I think the Soviet engineers did a good job restoring the stolen technology there.
well I can see why France commissioned and built that thing, it's super OP
Those Mayan and Paris Towers, even with my modded vehicles, I can’t destroy it
It seems the Mayan Pyramid has a different armor type compared to the other two
me : HEY I REMEMBER THAT MAYAN TOWER!
water prisim defense : you talked about me bro?
Imagine in multiplayer these defensive structures can be built by player.
Also in RA2 Mayan tower in mission 9 has 100 power cost. It’s interesting to see Mayan tower costs no power in YR.
if i remember when i played a custom france map with that eiffel tower it could also shoot down kirovs
so also a win for france(i'm not french BTW i just like an oversized tesla coil of death and destruction but also loved that mission in RA2)
nice idea to slow down the game first for buildings then make the game faster. And nice ending
It is funny to see, that chrono troopers are making Mayan structure disappear first, but it is probably much older than Eiffel tower!
Cheers, good job!
Game data-wise, the Chrono Legionaire's attack erases an object based on their max hp. The Mayan Pyramid has less max HP than the other structures but can resist nukes due to Armor typing.
@@dracmeister Hi! I agree completely with you, I know the mechanism; but in general chrono legionaire's weapon is "time", theoretically. They can make things like "they never existed" and so on. Thus, the "older" the unit is it should vanish them in longer time comparing to "young units". I know that mechanism is based on max HP, but I was just wondering about theory behind time aspect. :)
Alternatively, it could be that Chrono units are vanishing units depending on normalized production time in respective building, which is usually correlated with health: conscript is disappearing much faster comparing to apocalypse tank. Maybe in game script it is somehow defined how long does it take even for fancy "things" like Eiffel Tower, Mayan tower and Yuri tower to spawn? And that might answer the question, why Mayan tower is disappearing first comparing to rest: not max HP, but built-in-game spawn time?
Thanks for answer!
Cheers!

Armour on those Mayan pyramids made out of Stalinium against nukes :)
Alexander Stoyanov The Soviet prismatic tower is STRONGER and more armored than the American prototype.
Sekrit dokumint lined
Nukes can't melt Mayan bricks
Eiffel Tower vs. landed Kirov, maybe ??
The mission to weaponize the Eiffel tower was good fun
After completing the ninth mission for the Allies in the original Red Alert 2, I want to know: Why in subsequent missions you can’t build these excellent prism towers?!
Because they were destroyed, rather than captured, by allies.
@@bormisha Even if the Allies destroyed the prototypes themselves, did they burn the drawings? From the point of view of warfare, it sounds absurd to completely abandon the defensive structure, which alone will cope with the whole offensive of the "Apocalypses".
Which is funny, in campaigns, you only need two or three prism towers linked up to OHKO Apocalypse Tanks. In Skirmish, you need 7 to OHKO an Apocalypse tank.
@арсений меньшов, they also burned the drawings under the threat of the towers being recaptured by Soviets. Remember, the whole assault was made by a team of SEALs. Even if they captured and energized the prism towers, there is no defense that cannot be overwhelmed. Perhaps the Soviets sent a large army to reclaim the prism towers, so the SEALs had to C4 everything and retreat.
There's a Paris Tower in Fish City map only seen in Battle you can capture it too it's not from a Campaign.
Mayan pyramid is basically advanced prism tower
1 Subscribes The Soviet prismatic tower must be STRONGER than the pathetic capitalist prototype.
So, if I subscribe to you, you will change your name.
you will record a video testing the psychic beacon and psychic amplifier right? I love you :)
I would but they wouldn't do anything in a skirmish game.
@@tsiripas okay i will always love you anyway
What the devil is with that Mastermind??? An ELITE Mastermind??? lol lol lol

That ending would be a nice king of the hill type of challenge.
Holy Mother of Jesus that Eiffel Tower is overpowered!
I think that's the highest I've ever seen a Kirov fly.
Although aren't there taller structures/buildings like Sears and WTC?
I assume the Mayan Pyramid has it's own independent Power Source inside, that's very cool
It is interesting to note that The Paris Tower differs significantly from its real-life counterpart, sporting round platforms instead of rectangular ones and having three legs instead of four, thus being called the Paris Tower instead of the Eiffel Tower. I wonder why the devs did that since it's likeness is in the public domain?
RA2 : *eiffel tower lights up*
MW3 : *frost saw the destruction*
Mayan pyramid: *Survives a nuke*
MAYAN ARCHITECTURE IS THE FINEST!!
Eiffel Tower is like a One Punch man, can one shot everything
Soooooooooo... I just wanna ask you this... Does the Soviet MCV also look like some sort of weird truck carrying a Nuke or is that just me? Anyway keep up the good work because i love this game... Can you also do tests for the Omega version of the game? Pls
Edit: actually i was wrong it does not look like a Nuke... Looks like a Nuclear Warhead instead... Love your videos
Kinda weird how the “Paris Tower” has only three legs instead of Eiffel’s four. I wonder why?
It has 4, you just can't see the fourth leg
If I may suggest....building range. I remember that a taken over yuri tower have a building radius. There's another defensivable structure that can be taken over: tech repair pad. Can I ask about where you get this mod?. Would be fun if yuri can build that head tower.
Paris tower is the most lethal weaponry in Soviet that can destroy things in 1 electrical therapy XD
i dont really remember the mayan pyramid in game? where was it
One of the early Allied missions, where they introduced the SEALs.
Operation sun temple.
Jesus Christ. Imagine having that Eiffel Tower as a base defense. It's much worse than a Grand Cannon.
Keep it going!
Yuri Statue so cool, but so week.
Is there a vanilla map with Eiffells tower that shoots besides the campaign one? I always wanted to try in skirmish.
As far as I know, there isn't.
Hey i think you should also have included the psychic beacon and the psychic amplifier in the video or you should make a video for them :)
idk what they were smoking when they thought of that tesla tower but I want some.
Can you test the Psychic Beacon and Psychic Amplifier next maybe?
They don't do anything.
What they do in missions is scripted; everything from your units changing owner down to the lighting is scripted.
C&C Supremacy Mod oh really?
@@srsorrow1708 Yes, unfortunately.
Altho, with Mind-Control expanded in YR and with the Ares DLL, it should be possible to replicate the effects with a SW.
I have no idea on where to start, tho.
C&C Supremacy Mod back when I was a kid the missions with these structures were my favorite. I just loved these 2 structures so much.
Seems like each structure is tougher against enemies of the campaigns?
Why it is that different units put different damages on these structures? Like while apocalypse destroys these three towers at the same time Kirov's bombs destroy Eiffel almost in an instant, but not the two other.
on kirov it's blast radius effect eiffel tower more that other two
eiffel tower has 4x4, kirov bomb do damage 1 square form middle it's mean that eiffel get damage 5 times while, mayan is 2x3 that get damage most possible is 4 times, and statue is 2x2 that will get damage most possible is 3 times.
@@kawinchayaporn490 wow didn't know that kind of mechanic is underway, thanks a lot!
I it's based on armor type. For example mayan statue easily withstandts a nuke, eve though having less health than Eiffel tower.
Can Yuri Prime control any of these structures?
I just noticed on the thumbnail that the Eiffel Tower Is just an op version of tesla coil
I can think of 1 explanation for the "randomness" of the durability of these buildings:
The Eiffel Tower and the yuri statue are more vulnerable to all the "slow attacking, high damage" opponents like the nuke or the kirov where as the mayan tower is more durable but in face of any regular opponent as the apo or any regular tank they take all the same damage
Paris gave us a beautiful super powerful weapon
I think yuri statue can shoot air Bourne unit as well
Nope.
Mayan Pyramid ist am besten muss ich sagen bis auf einen Nachteil die Reichweite gegenüber Paris Tower. Trotzdem ist die Reichweite noch viel besser als bei allem anderen und hält am meisten aus bevor es Zerstört werden kann. Paris Tower hingegen zählt als normales Haus und geht schnell kaputt mit der richtigen Waffen. Also ich sage mal eindeutig ist der Mayan Pyramid Tower am besten und echt OP. xDD
🗼: DESTRUCTION
4:18 - 4:36
Ah, yes. I mean, OBVIOUSLY, the Yuri statue takes JUST as much time to remove from history as the HEART AND SOUL OF THE FRENCH NATION THAT HAS CAPTIVATED THE MINDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE EVERYWHERE.
Top tip use tibEd to assign the Eiffel bolt to Yuri primes ultimate 😂
5:48 Why is the Mayan tower so slow here compared to earlier
Nvm I see that you change game speed
Modded a Chrono Miner with a PrismShot and it fires exactly the same as Yuri statue. Wonder how it will get a prism support tho.
I'm guessing that the Prism Tower's charge-up sequence is what causes it to fire slower and giving any unit the weapon skips that second of charge.
I think the support thing is a secondary weapon. Every unit can have up to two weapons.
I am pretty sure the tesla troopers enhanced the Eiffel tower, not in Yuri's revenge though, maybe it got changed?
France super weapon .
Does fire power crate affect Eiffel Tower?
How in the freaking hell did u build the yuri statue ?????
Just edit the game files so the building appears in the players faction build list.
Have never modded RA YR but I have done a little modding on ZH
. First you get a tool to read the game file database.
In ZH if you cloned a civilian building, like the nuclear power plant into a faction file like the factionbuilding.ini for the America faction and renamed it as a new name, then added it into commandset.ini and commandbutton.ini with the corresponding name, then you'd get your new cloned unit.
It would work similarly to that, but based on RA2's own game file structuring.
Adding new units is a far more labour intensive.
Can we use the Eiffel Tower in skirmish map called "Paris" ?
I wonder how to have the pilots parachuted from the Harrier... Saw this realized in some other vids, but I'm not sure how to toggle with Rulesmd and Art. Thanks :)
you could write a college dissertation on this game!
Obviously this just shows Soviet> Allies
Also, Mayan bricks is the sturdiest things in this universe.
