This page includes a transcript of Ride of the Red Menace, the first Allied mission of Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3.[1]
Introduction[]
BCN: Premier Cherdenko continues to push his Soviet forces into Western Europe seizing control of key regions left behind by the retreating Allies. Great Britain now stands as the last European nation yet to feel the jackboot of Soviet aggression. That might be short-lived however, as sources tell us that a vast Soviet armada has been spotted off the northern coast of France.
Bingham: Commander, I'm Field Marshal Robert Bingham, Chief of the Allied Military Command. I've been told that you're a very capable officer. Well, let's hope this assessment is correct, as all our senior commanders are now fighting in Europe. Leaving the defense of Great Britain entirely in your hands. I'd like you to meet Lieutenant Eva. She will be your intel officer and communications liaison.
Eva: Glad to have you on-board, sir. Field Marshall, the President is ready for you.
Bingham: Mr. President. I'd like you to meet our new commander on the ground.
Ackerman: Greetings, Commander. You ready to send those commies running back to their mommies? I sure hope so. Because if you don't stop 'em over there, the only thing standing between those godless reds and the U.S. of A. is gonna be one little ocean.
Bingham: I absolutely agree, Mr. President. We cannot allow the Soviets to secure a foothold in Great Britain. The fate of the free world depends upon it.
Briefing[]
Eva: The Soviets have conquered much of Europe with brute force. Now, they are trying to invade England, by attacking a virtually defenseless civilian city, Brighton Beach. Commander, we must hold the line and defend against the Soviet advance. If they take Brighton Beach, it's a straight shot to London. All of Europe will fall! We cannot let that happen.
Mission summary[]
Intelligence: The Soviet Union is on Britain's doorstep. You must do everything possible to repel the incoming attack.
- Expect waves of Soviet forces to approach by air drop.
- Unfortunately we do not have heavy armor reinforcements at this time. You will need to find a way to complete this mission with the resources you already have.
Good luck.

Commander Giles Price - This one-time fighter ace happily accepted a desk job since it put so many more shiny chevrons on his lapel. Now he's quickly making a name for himself as a capable, cool-headed tactician. He oversees one of the Allies' finest strategic air bases in Europe.
Mission script[]
Primary Objective 1: Eliminate the Soviets in Brighton[]
Intelligence: Brighton Beach is under siege by Soviet forces. The city must be liberated so we can bolster our defense against additional waves.
Intelligence: We are mustering defenses. Please make do with these Peacekeepers and Attack Dogs for now.
[After completing Primary Objective 1]
Intelligence: This base will be your staging area against the incoming attack waves. You have been assigned a Co-Commander for this mission. He will aid in the defense of Great Britain.
Giles: Quite a mess this is. Name's Giles, commander, and I'm not about to let these commies secure a foothold in our backyard! I'll be right at your side the entire time.
Eva: The Soviets are closing in with an airborne force. It looks like they are going to para-drop into the city. We cannot let them take Brighton Beach! You must hold them off!
Primary Objective 2: Hold Out Against the Incoming Soviets[]
Intelligence: The civilian population has been evacuated. Your infantry may garrison the deserted structures for protection.
Intelligence: More Soviet invasion forces detected off the coast. They will arrive shortly.
Intermission[]
Krukov: Hello capitalist dogs! I am General Krukov, the one who will bring you defeat today. Brace yourselves for the might of the Red Navy. We will pound your little island until you weep for mercy.
Eva: Things are going well, but I fear that was just their first wave. Take those gun emplacements on the beachhead to help repel any more attacks that might be coming.
Bonus Objective 3[]
Giles: I can make a dash for two of those coastal guns, if you'd like.
[Upon accepting the Co-Commander strike]
Giles: Consider it ours.
[Upon Giles completing the Co-Commander strike]
Giles: Beach defenses online. This should shake things up a little bit!
[]
Giles: They're sending more, are they? Don't worry, I'm right behind you.
Intelligence: Javelin Soldiers are now authorized in the defense of this area. Train them from the Boot Camp.
Krukov: Do you have your white flag ready, Commander? Heh heh.
Intelligence: Additional Soviet forces inbound. Prepare for their arrival.
Krukov: Don't get over confident. This isn't over yet.
Eva: The Soviets are about to attack again, sir. Intel says this is the last wave, so hold your ground.
Intelligence: You are authorized to construct an Armor Facility and Multigunner Turret defenses. Vehicle production authority granted. You now have access to the Multigunner Infantry Fighting Vehicle.
Primary Objective 4: Eliminate the Remaining Soviets[]
Peacekeeper: Allied bombers inbound, Commander. Ready to pound the ground. Don't worry, Commander, we've got your back.
Completion[]
Krukov: Luck seems to be on your side. My army is needed elsewhere at the moment. But don't get comfortable- I will be back.
Eva: The Soviets are retreating, sir! You've done it! You've driven them back! Congratulations Commander!
Mission failure[]
Bingham: This defeat is the end of us, Commander. I honestly thought you could handle it.
