Line 85:
* [[Spanner in the Works]]: The Soviets in ''Yuri's Revenge''. Yuri activating the Psychic Dominators doesn't stop their initial goal of stealing the time machine in San Francisco to change the past and win the war. Only now, they're forced to deal with both the Allies and Yuri, thwarting both factions in the process.
* [[Spiteful AI]]: The mind control tanks take damage if it mind controls too many units. It will happily push forward and [[Mind Rape]] as many units as it can regardless of this until it is destroyed.
* [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]: While pre-release screenshots of the game used exact replicas of the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe, these were altered in the final release likely due to usage rights over the depiction of French landmarks (especially when they are portrayed in a less-than-flattering light). Later releases of ''Red Alert 2'' patched this even further by giving them generic names e.g. "Paris Tower" and "Arch of Winning" due to [[Unfortunate Implications]] after the September 11 attacks. There is however a [https://ppmforums.com/topic-15871/ra2yr-prerelease-eiffel-tower/ mod] which restores the old Eiffel Tower complete with a custom destruction animation.
* [[Symbology Research Failure]]: ''Red Alert 2'' has Russian Orthodox Church architecture on Communist structures.
* [[Take Over the World]]: The Soviet campaign endings in a nutshell, with the one for ''Yuri's Revenge'' going a step further by mentioning Romanov's plans to expand Communism beyond Earth.
