The Allied victory over the Soviet Union was swift, hasty, and not at all total. Crawling back from the brink of defeat by a daring chrono strike into the heart of the Soviet Union - Moscow - the Soviet leadership was apprehended in mere minutes, and peace was declared in mere hours.
The red armies, still occupying war-torn Europe, retreated to the east - ready to be sent west by the next premier. Oh, the USA kept watch over the Soviet Union, at first, but the bear was never declawed, and the USA could hardly occupy three continents.
North America was a place of peace and prosperity, and, though perhaps with too much grumbling, the USA saw fit to invest mightily into Europe, seeking to create a strong community of allies on the Soviet Union's border. But this drained the USA's resources, and more men and materials were redeployed to the west side of the Atlantic, as tensions in South America reached a boiling point.
Communist insurgents rose up all throughout the continent, and after a taxing and brutal struggle for years, peace was about to be declared on Isla Contadora. It was there that the Allied officials met an early grave, though it is unknown which side shot first. No matter who started it, the war was on again.
Was it Yuri's work? He was certainly behind the various independence movements in Africa and the Middle-East, speaking out against the imperialists and the neo-imperialists, the colonists and the capitalists. Soon, the Hurria movement, meaning 'Freedom' in Arabic, wrestled with both the Soviets and the Allies in the region. Which, inevitably, caused the two to clash in places such as Libya and Iraq.
As the powers that be occupied themselves with proxy wars, a Psychic Dominator rose up amidst the pyramids of Egypt. In the far east, untold billions were unknowingly poised to unite under Yuri at the push of a button. Even spy satellites couldn't catch the covert operations Yuri committed deep within Allied territory.
And then, one day, Yuri revealed himself to the world at large. His PSI Corps was ready to ascend to virtual godhood and govern the entire world. The ultimate peace, an era of prosperity for all, of science, of wonders and miracles undreamed of ever before. And it only required the activation of a dozen Psychic Dominators.
How easy it seemed - and how miraculously Yuri's plans were undone, thanks to time travel. But, suppose that the Allied airforce didn't disable the Psychic Dominator on Alcatraz Island. Suppose that the Allies weren't able to travel back in time. Suppose that all these years of hard work would have paid of, resulting in a humanity free of aggression, free of violence, free of anything negative at all?
Take a look at Yuri's hard work, culminating in this final glorious moment, and ask yourself: Is it not better to live in eternal happiness, with the great Yuri caring for you, as a father would, as humanity's very own god is wont to?

Is it still develop?
This mod seems quite nice, I hope development eventually continues and it will get the to-do list done. Seemed like most of the things were cosmetic and mod was quite ready for release.
hey, how's the mod progressing?
looks very interesting from the very beginning, good job
Thank you very much! :)
An ambitious and exciting project. I'll be interested to see where it leads.
Thank you! I just added a to do list, here: Moddb.com - as you can see from there (and from the images and articles), the mod is 'sort of almost ready' for a first release, but I will go on a holiday tomorrow, and I really don't work much on it (I have a fulltime job as well), so a first release could be months away anyway. :P
wow that could become a great and show what yuri where doing between red alert 2 ending and the begining of yuri revenge is it done with arès engine ? (like mo or red ressurection) ?
Probably Westwood / EA Games made Yuri's Revenge begin right after the end of Red Alert 2... But there is no proof for this, so I decided to have fun and pretend that the introduction movie of Yuri's Revenge actually takes place decades after the end of Red Alert 2. I've always liked worldbuilding, and I have a huge campaign thought up in my head (will it ever be made? That is highly doubtful), ending with Yuri failing to defend the Psychic Dominator on Alcatraz.
And yes, the mod uses Ares. :)
