The Shinobi is the Empire's mid-late game infantry unit which is often overlooked. The Shinobi is able to maintain a strong battlefield presence and since it is also an infiltrator, bringing a couple with you into battle has very positive consequences. His secondary ability also allows him to...

One of the greatest units in the allied arsenal, and one of the greatest Tier 2 vehicles available, the Assault Destroyer has a respectable anti-tank role, high armor, an extraordinary secondary ability and good mobility due to being amphibious. They are able to crush most units due to their...

Akula submarines are arguably the most effective Soviet naval unit in Red Alert 3. They can submerge to avoid most units and tier 1 base defenses, they have a very powerful secondary ability that can easily rip apart enemy units and structures alike, and they can take a few hits before going...
