RA3 Unit Profile - Soviet Combat Engineer

[Sonic 298]

After a bit of break the unit profiles have returned on the Official Red Alert 3 Site. This latest one features the Soviet Combat Engineer. As always, this profile has a short in game video, concept art and extra information. Here is a sample....

 

Combat engineers hail from all walks of life: They are the Union's bookkeepers, professors, curators, symphony conductors, mechanics, shipwrights, and, of course, its civilian architects and engineers. Once drafted, combat engineers receive on-the-job training in control systems, computers, sabotage, and even basic marksmanship for self-defense. Because they are not frontline fighters to be thrown straight into harm's way, they are expected to work longer hours than the average conscript, and for a lower stipend and less in the way of rations, shelter, and amenities. Combat engineers therefore have little spare time to rationalize their trade-off, which Science and Information Ministers explain away as a "noble sacrifice for the good of our Land."

from what i understand, soviet combat engineers are the only engineers that can capture a structure instantly? or did i assume too much from the description...

Yeap, love it. Especially I love that 2nd clip best, even Apoc also laugh over this.

 

Ahh, the bunker got much bigger than the last smaller one. More realistic, good work on that fix, EA.

Well, you certainly don't waste any keystrokes, do you?

I never realised that every little guy I trained to capture an enemy building had such a compelling backstory.
