Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Fake Nationality: On the Soviet side, Aleksandra Kaniak (Zofia), Udo Kier (Yuri) and Nicholas Worth (Romanov) are respectively a Pole, German and American portraying Russians. The Allied side have French General Rene Lyon and German scientist Albert Einstein respectively portrayed by a Belgian (Frank Bruynbroek) and an American (Larry Gelman).
  • Screwed by the Lawyers: Patch 1.001 for Yuri's Revenge disabled the unique voice lines for the Hollywood action heroes in "Hollywood and Vain", replacing them with the generic GI voice set and their names to something even more vague. This was done presumably to avoid any litigation from the actors Westwood parodied, which is strange considering the numerous other pop culture references present both in the base game and in Yuri's Revenge, one of them being the Brute unit as a thinly-veiled Hulk expy.
  • You Look Familiar: Athena Massey (Allied EVA) appeared in Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun as Brink, a Bridge Bunny who pilots GDI's Kodiak.
