Hello ladies and gentlemen! Stimer Games is here! I've finally started cooking some epic content to release. It's Red Alert 3 Uprising Commander's challenges, except with additional rules that i came up this Spring.

Rules of the challenge:
1.Go strictly by the path that is unlocked over time, no skipping and no leaping
2.Finish each secondary mission before coming onto the next primary mission
3.Always go for Par Time, never finishing the mission without par time and then finishing it under with the unlocked unit or the fully unlocked tech
4.OP tactics, AI manipulation and oversight exploits are allowed (Dojo Rush, Empire air units swarm, other map tricks and etc. are allowed)
5.Good luck commando

Number of attempts before the final: 1

Yuriko Omega - Medium (1 v 3; Empire (Takara Sato); Fogged map) [The Omega Program]
Hey hey hey! Have you ever wanted to have multiple commandos like Tanyas, Natashas or Yurikos? Well... ugh, yeah, no use. We don't have any commandos unlocked, so such gameplay change will benefit only our opponent. We do get a bonus commando which we can use to destroy one of three bases quickly, as well as 2 Oil Derricks. The AI on the other hand starts with pre-placed Nanotech mainframe and Dojos on each of its base, quickly upgrading the Dojo to tier 3 to start spamming Yurikos. This mission also introduces the first new waifu commander of Red Alert 3 Uprising - Takara Sato, the new replacement of Naomi Shirada.
So... let's talk about what we'll be facing first. Yurikos, obviously, and imperial warriors. Commandos in this game are usually great against infantry armies, and have some issues with anti-infantry vehicles, even one on one. And Yuriko is one of them, even thou she can win a fight against literally anything in 1v1. So... how do we counter someone who can win anyone in 1v1 fight? send an army against single-target commandos! So...
We'll be picking Soviets here. Not only because Natasha has a very long range and can pilot snipe harvesters who tend to be a sudden problem to Sickles, but also because of how Sickles are designed: They have 3 turrets, but only 2 can target the main target, while the 3rd can target something else nearby. So you can set them in aggressive mode and work on other buildings. Even thou they're anti-infantry, when they're spammed they're still a threat. Just... don't command them to jump, or Yuriko will use her anti-air insta-kill attack on a jumping Sickle.
Use Natasha to solo the nearest base, which is the top one, and use Cash Bounty to get bonus money from high cost buildings like Nanotech mainframe and MCVs. Then get back to your base. All this while also progress to War Factory and start spamming Sickles. With this army now go either to the bottom base or the left base and just wipe them out. Use Natasha to destroy key buildings, while Sickles go into the middle of the base and just... attack everything on sight. The AI also can build Psionic decimator, which i've found out from ЛКИ's video only... so... it's a thing apparently... i mean it uses Yurikos as an ammo, so... it fits... i guess?
As for the base defense - spam Sentry guns, especially on entrances from water and from the front. Due to how the AI and pathfinding works - chances are high that Yuriko will target the turret that is far away enough that other turrets will have enough time sniping the moving Yuriko. Still may not help against 4 or 5 Yurikos, but bring out Sickles that are currently producing on your base.
Key units - Natasha, for her long range anti-armor bombing, and Sickles, for killing Yurikos
Yuriko... is a tricky unlockment. She's good on destroying bases when hidden in sudden transport, and can solo anything singular if you have good micro. She's still fragile to spam VS single attacks, so be careful of that.
