RA3 Beta (Replay+Commentary #1) - Japan VS Allies

*COMMENTARY VERSION!* In this video I recorded of one of my online matches, I play as the Empire of the Rising Sun (Japan) and take on the Allies. As you'll notice, Japan's buildings are not placed down from the Construction Yard, but are rather deployed by 'worker'-like units, meaning that you can place them anywhere you can move the units to. In this match-up, I choose to go for two refineries immediately after my power plant so that I can get as much cash as possible. I then completely by-pass the Dojo/Barrack and instead go for a War Factory. Some key moments in this match are: - Harvester harassment and destruction early on - Coast line domination & Construction Yard destruction via my submarines (my opponent was obviously new to the game, as he didn't even undeploy his Construction Yard into a MCV) - Quick expansion & control of the entire map (coast line domination means that the sea is entirely off limits to my opponent) Watch and enjoy!
