Very childish question
Who was your biggest crush throughout the Command & Conquer series?
For me it was Dasha Fedorovich, good god my crush was mental for her 😂
If you haven't watched "Banshee" on NowTV, go watch it, the main actor is awesome and she does a great job on there too.

Ok, now I gotta reinstall and playback the Soviet campaign to watch it and also pay homage to Tim Curry.

Red Alert 3 is one of my least favorite games from a mechanics perspective, but I absolutely love the cast and insanely over the top story elements. Mount Rushmore housing a different super weapon in every old president's head was the moment that really sold it for me, but in hindsight I just love how they got Tim Curry, J.K. Simmons, and George Takei to be at each others throats for a video game.

IMO they wanted to avoid the "tank rush on repeat" gameplay of RA2, but they went too far with it

u/The_Pastmaster Nod 1d ago
Yeah, the acting is top notch. Just kinda sad that the game is a bit ass.

There's never been a better time to replay, with the high FPS mods! And yeah, I think this scene is from Soviets mission 2.

I do wish I had the finances to hire people like Red Alert did for their actors. Man, Strike Order would be insane, but no no, I have to do it at a "no" budget way and use my own design and mind 😂

Yes, Jennifer Morrison. Though most images have her normally as a blonde. Was also the lead in Once Upon a Time.

You can't imagine my surprise when I was working my way through the complete series of Buffy and saw Dasha show up. It only took me eight or so years to recognise her.
But to answer your question my biggest crush in C&C is a dead heat between Athena Massey (especially in that dress at the end of Yuri's Revenge) and Aleksandra Kaniak who cemented my lifelong weakness for tall brunettes and Slavic accents.
Tricia Helfer, Dark!Jennifer Morrison from C&C3 and Monika Schnarre from Tiberian Sun all jostle for second place.

u/Preseli-Games 1d ago
Dasha... buffy?!! Well, I may ask my vampire crazy wife to watch Buffy because I'm being a loving husband then! 😂

u/Kakapo42000 1d ago
Yep, it was one of her first on-screen roles. She has a guest appearance in season 6 as a demon-hunting commando.

In terms of "because I know their other work very well ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)", Athena Massey, Lt. Eva.

Athena Massey was just a cute girl in the background in Tiberian Sun. In fact, I didn't draw the connection that she's Eva of Red Alert 2 for years. And I've been crushing on Eva from RA2 the whole time. Felt really stupid for not recognizing her in Tiberian Sun.

I almost missed her myself right up until her line in the intro to the Kodiak ion storm mission, where I recognised her voice immediately.

Why is she Fedorovich? We don't have surnames like those, and she would be Fedorovna if it was patronymic, which it is. Or else it would've been Fedorova, but not -ich, damn it
