Walkthrough for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3's 'Taking Back Ice Harbor' mission. Includes objectives, base building, naval combat, and tips for defeating Tatsu.
Walkthrough
- 1Launch all Infantry from the Bullfrogs onto the center of the island to damage the enemy base. Use available Stingrays to finish off remaining forces and structures, especially Mecha Tengu.
- 2Once the Japanese Base is destroyed, your MCV will arrive. Set up your base on the western side of the island, while Zhana establishes hers on the east.
- 3Construct a Barracks and Naval Yard, followed by Defences. Build Refineries next to Ore Nodes immediately.
- 4Send an Engineer into the Dry Dock to the east. Use Bullfrogs to deploy Infantry to the Generators. Destroy or Capture the Generators to disable the turrets guarding the Dreadnoughts.
- 5Address the enemy Mecha Bay and Refinery to the north. Eliminate the Collector and any remaining Tengu. Consider capturing the Refinery and building an Ore Collector from the Naval Yard.
- 6Use Stingrays to destroy remaining enemy defenses.
- 7Advance towards the Imperial Military Admin located on the northeast part of the island. Capture the Hospital to secure local resources.
- 8The Japanese forces in the northwest ocean are a significant threat. Use Stingrays and Dreadnoughts to destroy their Construction Yard and Battleships.
- 9Move to the western part of the mainland. Deploy Infantry to the dock, liberate Engineers and Barracks, and destroy nearby Imperial forces. Use the captured Barracks to produce additional troops.
- 10When Zhana's base is attacked, use the Magnetic Satellite to eliminate the ambush force, then finish off any survivors with your Units.
- 11Use Dreadnoughts to destroy defenses guarding the docks and the Admin. Launch a mass attack on the Administrative Building, remembering Stingrays are amphibious. Alternatively, use Bullfrogs to deploy Infantry over the cliff to destroy the Generator, disabling the Admin's turrets.
- 12After the Administrative Building takes damage, Tatsu will deploy a Nanoswarm Hive and a King Oni. Destroy the King Oni, then finish off the Administrative Building to complete the mission.
Tips
- The Green Army starts with more War Bears and fewer Conscripts.
- Coordinate base placement with Zhana, deciding who takes which side of the island.
- During Japanese assaults on the island, two Magnetic Satellites can be used to significantly weaken the ambush force.
- Dreadnoughts are only controllable by Red (Soviet) forces.
