Command & Conquer Red AlertThe events of World War II leave the world awestruck at the vast number of casualties from this conflict. Much of this devastation can be attributed to the political ambitions of one man: Adolf Hitler.During the final years of the war, Albert Einstein secretly constructs a device which would hopefully prevent these lives from ever being lost: a time machine. This machine is completed in 1946, and he uses it to go back in time to Germany, 1924. Here he finds Adolf Hitler, years before he has risen to power, and simply shakes his hand. This causes a disruption in the space-time continuum whereby Hitler simply vanishes from history. Einstein returns back to 1946 and finds that his mission to prevent the costly war between the Axis and the Allies has been a success! However, there is an unintended consequence of this time travel mission. The Russian superpower led by Joseph Stalin has now grown strong and unchecked without Hitler’s Third Reich. The Soviets soon invade Western Europe and World War 2 begins. This time though, between the Allies and the Soviet Union. The European led Allies endure a massive war, fighting off this new aggressor. Albert Einstein plays a key role in Allied victories by inventing new, superior technologies. The first Red Alert war ends with the eventual defeat of the Soviet Union, and the death of its ruthless dictator, Joseph Stalin. ![]()

While the Allies and Soviets were battling it out in the Second Red Alert war, Yuri has been installing these weapons all over the earth. Once they’re in place, he attempts to activate all the Psychic Dominators. And as this happens, region by region, the world becomes mindless drones under Yuri’s control.

The western coast of the United States retains their free will for the time being.Albert Einstein has a plan that might save the world from this doom. He has newly constructed time machine which can send a whole army back in time. The Allied forces use this time machine to go back in history to a time before the last war ended so they can destroy Yuri’s army before it gains momentum. When Yuri is revealed to be the enemy of all nations, including the Russians, the Soviets sign a peace accord with the Allies, so that the traitor Yuri can be eliminated. ![]() Command & Conquer Red Alert 3The demise of the Soviet Union is at hand.

This plan goes without a hitch, and when they return to their original timeline, the Allies are indeed weakened and at the mercy of the Soviet military. But before they can truly celebrate, they learn that their actions have unintended consequences. They have spawned a new threat and global superpower: the Empire of the Rising Sun.With the Allies weakened, Imperial Japan was left to expand unchecked over the decades.
