Guide for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3's final Allied mission in Tokyo. Hold out for Soviet reinforcements and take out the Imperial Military.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Hold out against arriving Imperial forces on the starting island until the timer runs out. Train Guardian Tanks, Javelin Soldiers, Peacekeepers, and an Engineer. Build a fleet of Vindicators and Apollo Fighters, and a pair of Cryocopters.
  2. 2
    Once time runs out, sell all structures except the Construction Yard. Build a sufficient amount of Riptide ACVs. Ensure Vindicators and Apollos fly to the northern edge of the island with other troops. Leave Cryocopters behind.
  3. 3
    The Soviets will not arrive. The Japanese will fire their Psionic Decimator, destroying most of the island. If your Prospector survived, deploy it near an Ore Node.
  4. 4
    Use the Chronosphere (a superweapon that can teleport units) to transfer your MCV and as many armored units as possible to the northeastern corner of the map. Lissette should remain on the island.
  5. 5
    Build two Airbases on the new location and fly Vindicators and Apollos there immediately. Build defenses on this new location.
  6. 6
    Destroy the Superweapons to the west using Athena Cannons (a powerful defensive structure) and Vindicators. Send Tanya to wipe out the base, destroying the Towers to the south first.
  7. 7
    Destroy the Imperial Docks to the south using Vindicators.
  8. 8
    Flatten the training facility to the south with a ground assault.
  9. 9
    Use Air forces to destroy the Naval base to the far south, using Century Bombers to annihilate the docks and key structures.
  10. 10
    Target the Military Headquarters in the west with a combined ground and air assault.
  11. 11
    As Tatsu's elite fleet arrives in the western ocean, use the Chronosphere on the Battleships to prevent them from bombing Lissette's base. Have Lissette deal with the rest of the fleet.
  12. 12
    Destroy the Mecha facility island. Have Lissette provide support while Bombers destroy everything on the island. Finish off Tatsu's fleet to complete the mission. Use Apollo Fighters to gun down Sky-Wings and have Cryocopters freeze Naginatas for a quick kill.
Tips
  • The secondary objective, "Destroy the Imperial Blockade," is not worth pursuing as you need to harvest as much time as possible.
  • This is one of the hardest missions; stay alert.
  • Capture any Dojos and Mecha Bays on your starting island if possible.
  • Vindicators alone can destroy the naval blockade with the Aeronautics upgrade (3 for a Turret, 8 for a Dock), but you must start immediately.
  • If you can quickly build a third Airbase for 12 Aircraft total, do so.
  • To destroy the Superweapon farm, send a Spy to bribe the two King Onis. After dealing with nearby Turrets and Burst Drones, use the Spy to grab the two battlewalkers when they are close.
  • Alternatively, build extra Power Plants and strike the Superweapon farm. Destroy its turrets and capture one of the Psionic Decimators. Capture the Nanoswarm Hive first to prevent the Decimator from being used.
  • Capturing the superweapon farm is possible. The Psi Decimator has a ten-minute cooldown, so staggering their use by having enough extra power for all three is worthwhile. You may need to sell them after destroying all other objective targets.
  • Upon capturing enough Imperial structures, Imperial tier-3 tech and Imperial MCVs are unavailable. You can capture the Imperial MCV situated west of the superweapon farm.
  • Several Shogun Battleships are stationed near the Docks in the southeast and can be captured.
  • AI forces use support abilities like Final Squadrons, Rocket Angels, and Balloon Bombs.
  • Avoid using Naval forces until the Naval base to the east is destroyed.
  • Cryocopters can make defending the island easier.
  • If both armies use their Chronosphere on Tatsu's fleet, only Sea-Wings will remain.
  • When on the island, play defensively and use Aircraft.
