* [[Executive Meddling]]: ''Red Alert 3'''s DRM ,which was one of the reasons why the game was (along with forgetting in some copies to add the 20th cd-key digit) a failure in terms of profit, apparently it was this economic failure along with the resources lost in ''Tiberium'' what convinced EA executives to make ''Tiberian Twilight''.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]!: Hey, it's:
* [[Fake Nationality]]:
** The Soviet Union is led by an Englishman and their top scientist is a Swede. Krukov's actor is an American of Russian descent. Dasha is probably Russian (her last name suggests she ''could'' be Ukrainian). Actress Ivana Milicevic (pronounced "Mil-ee-savich") is a Serbian immigrant who grew up in the United States.
** Everyone in the Empire of the Rising Sun appears to be Chinese, save for the Emperor himself. Kelly Hu is also of Hawaiian descent, which makes her of ''Japanese'' descent in this timeline.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]!: Hey, it's:

* [[McLeaned]]: Actor Nicholas Worth, who played Premier Romanov, died a year before ''Red Alert 3'' was released. The game explains his absence by saying he has fled.
* [[Name's the Same]]:
** Nikolai (Krukov and Moskvin).
** Players unfamiliar with the game may get a bit of nostalgia when they first hear of the name "General Krukov", which is one letter away from the famous traitor "Kukov" from ''Red Alert 1''. {{spoiler|Turns it out may have been intentional, as guess who betrays you about halfway through the Soviet Campaign}}?
* [[Stunt Casting]]: Gina Carano's role as Natasha amounts to a single non speaking cameo in the Allied campaign and the Natasha unit in gameplay is clearly voiced by someone else.
