The Super Reactor is the Soviet Union's advanced power production structure in Red Alert 3 and its expansion, Uprising.

Background[]

The Super Reactor is the Soviet Union's massive advanced power plant capable of fueling an entire city. Poorly maintained super reactors can produce incredibly toxic chemical wastes, capable of melting both flesh and bone. This toxin is collected and repurposed by the Soviet military to arm both Desolator bombs and Desolator troopers.

Game structure[]

The Super Reactor costs $2000 to construct, and is capable of providing significantly more power per credit cost than a regular Reactor (5.71 credits per power unit compared to 8 credits per power unit for the regular Reactor). In addition, it is also considered a tech structure and grants commanders access to more power-intensive units and technologies, including Tesla Troopers, Akula submarines and Hammer Tanks. It can even be built on water.

A Super Reactor is extremely volatile and will explode violently if it is destroyed, severely damaging any nearby units and structures, even aircraft. It will also leave behind toxic waste, lethal to infantry, after its destruction. Therefore, care must be taken to protect them, as they will likely be the priority target of enemy troops, especially since if infiltrated the owner will lose power for 60 seconds, rather than just 30 seconds.
