The only advantage that allied has over soviet on RA2 compared to YR is that grizzlies build a lot faster...

Really? I'll have to test that. I learn something new everyday on this forum .

Allieds arent weaker in every single way, have you tried 20rhinos vs 18 mirages? (about the same cost) also if your using ctrl+shift mirages become even more awsome, do not forget rockies/planes either.

The desolators do not make the mirages useless either since a good allied player rarely gets deso-bombed.

Imo soviet only has 2 advantages over allied

+ Rhinos are a little more cost-effective then grizzlys

+ Desolators

It's true that mirages are harder for rhinos to kill because you have to hold ctrl, unlike on YR, however mirages on Ra2 are much more vunerable to desos, unlike on YR where seals and BFs essentially make allied unbeatable in later game.

fair enough, but its still no easy task to deso-bomb a smart allied mirages. Since there are so many options here to avoid the desos, also repair+ifv usually works wonders on reparing the wounded tanks.

Also the allied should use grizzlys and a few prisms tanks too, along with the mirages.

never liked YR, it was always 1 overpowered unit killing another overpowered unit

I'm of Drasten's opinion, the only true advantages Soviets have over Allieds is early game units. Whenever I have to deal with Mirages I either try to kill him before he gets too many or try to build more war factories in hopes of outtanking him but still... Its hard.
