Whereas the first game's incarnation amounted to little more than mild stat differences, however, the mod's take fleshes them out as an radiation-based and experimental subfaction.

''Rise of the East'' is a GameMod for the RealTimeStrategy game ''VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlert2''. It features the three factions from vanilla ''Yuri's Revenge'' and two factinos based on ''VideoGame/CommandAndConquerGenerals'': the Asia-Pacific Alliance (based on China) and the Global Liberation Army. The concept of countries has been reworked into subfactions; each faction is divided into three subfactions, each with very different technologies and playstyles.

** Japan's unique units and overall strengths are a combination of both the Allies and Empire of the Rising Sun in ''VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlert3''.

----
!!This game provides examples of:
* AbnormalAmmo: The Virus fires special darts filled with a biologically engineered pathogen, causing the victim to rapidly develop large sores and blisters, as well as severe organ damage and necrosis. When the pathogen has reached critical mass within a victim's body, the skin ruptures, ejecting toxic gasses and killing the host.
* AdaptationNameChange: Units that got new names from the game where they debuted are Jieitai (Imperial Warrior), Blackhawk Transport (Nighthawk Transport), Minisub (Yari Minisub), Halftrack (Flak Track) and Gatling Buggy (Yuri's Gatling Tank).
* AmazonBrigade: As their name would indicate, all Japanese Archer Maidens are female.
* AmphibiousAutomobile: Vehicles capable of traversing both land and water by default include Robot Tanks, Tsunami Tanks, Shatterers, Mecha Tengus (in ground mode), Repair Drones, Weevil Tanks, Assault Crawlers and [=MOWs=]. Those that can do so with an upgrade are Surveyors, Bulava Tanks, Magnetrons and Havoc Tanks.
* AsteroidsMonster: A Doombringer ejects an Iron Strider when destroyed.
* AwesomePersonnelCarrier: The Battle Fortress is a heavy vehicle with fireports that allow four soldiers inside to fire out.
* BarrierWarrior: The Iron Fist and Iron Guard can provide Iron Curtain effects to friendly vehicles.
* BeastOfBattle: The Allies, Soviets and Asia's scout infantry is the Attack Dog (or in case of Ukraine, the War Bear). At sea, the Allies have tamed Dolphins and Yuri uses mind controlled Giant Squid.
* BoomHeadshot: The Spetsnaz's Headshot ability instantly kills any infantry below 25% HP.
* CastFromHitPoints: The Doombringer's Iron Curtain takes away 33% of its HP.
* ChainLightning: The electric bolts fired by the Tesla Tank v1 can bounce from target to target.
* ChargedAttack: When idle, Stealth Tanks can store up to 6 missiles that can be launched quickly.
* CharmPerson: Yuri Clones, Psi Commandos, Psi Troopers, Masterminds and Psychic Towers can mind control enemy units. Yuri Prime can mind control both units and buildings.
* CriticalHit:
** Storm Tanks have a chance to deal an extra 25% damage and slow the target.
** Fleur's attacks have a chance to deal an extra 50% damage and disable the target's weapons.
* DamageIncreasingDebuff:
** Toxin Rebels, Chem Troopers, Iron Striders, Toxin Tractors and Plague Spreaders reduce enemy armour by 1% each time they attack.
** Units marked by Quang take an extra 33% damage.
* DashAttack: Every 40 seconds, a Brute can charge at its target, moving at double speed.
* DeadlyDisc: Disc Throwers throw heavy discs effective against vehicles.
* DefogOfWar: A Spy Satellite Uplink and North Korea's Satellite Feed GP reveal the entire map.
* DestructibleProjectiles: V3 and Dreadnought missiles can be shot down by enemy anti-air before they reach their target.
* DiscardAndDraw:
** The Imperial Rounds support power causes Jieitai to replace their rifles with beam katanas, increasing speed, health and damage but forcing them to fight at close range.
** The Cloak and Dagger GP also reduces Shadow Tanks and Weevil Tanks' HP by 10% in addition to increasing their damage, turning them invisible and unlocking Stealth Tanks.
** The Satellite Feed GP increases Artillery Barrage's cooldown by 1 minute, in exchange for removing its cost.
** Toxicants turns Street Pharmacists, a support unit that heals and boosts other infantry, into Chem Troopers, a direct combat unit.
** Martyrdom turns Yuri Clones into Acolytes. While the former is ''the'' standard mind controller (whose hold over the victim is only maintained as long as the Yuri Clone is alive), the latter can mind control an enemy permanently and boost its victim's stats, but kills itself in the process.
* DiscountCard: An Industrial Plant and Recycled Parts reduce all vehicles' cost by 12% and 15%, respectively. A Tech Power Plant reduces all buildings' cost by 10%.
* DrillTank: Ore Drillers and Subterranean [=APCs=] can move underground due
* DroneDeployer:
** Ahsan's special ability deploys 4 Burst Drones.
** The Drone Carrier and Aircraft Carrier do not attack by themselves and instead serve as platforms for two drones or six [=UAVs=] to bombard enemy targets from afar.
* DualModeUnit:
** [=GIs=] can deploy sandbags around themselves, allowing them to use M60 chainguns, which deal more damage and have better range. Guardian [=GIs=] and Prism Defenders can deploy iron rings; the former become uncrushable, the latter gain range and rate of fire. The Cryobuster can dig a foxhole, becoming uncrushable and gaining range. When deployed, none of these units can move.
** Iron Guards can deploy to periodically boost friendly vehicles' armour and apply Iron Curtain to them, in exchange for being unable to move or attack.
** Tengus and Buzzers can switch between two modes of movement: flying or hovering.
** Normally, Hackers can disable enemy vehicles and structures. When deployed, they become immobile and provides the commander a gradual income.
** The Hammer Tank can switch between a standard anti-tank cannon and an indirect-fire mortar, which deals more damage and can fire from farther but has worse accuracy.
** In her default mode, Black Lotus infects enemy vehicles, disabling them and nearby vehicles after a delay. When deployed, she can instantly disable vehicles from long range.
** All helicopters can deploy to land (except the Blackhawk and Hind, which land automatically when not moving, and the Helix, which can never land). Except the Siege Chopper, which deploys an artillery cannon, other helicopters cannot attack at all while landed, making this only truly useful to avoid anti-air fire.
** The Disruptor, Nuke Cannon and M.O.W. must deploy to fire. In exchange, when deployed, the M.O.W. moves slower, while the other two cannot move at all.
** While undeployed, the Juggernaut is mobile and can use its cannons at short range. While deployed it becomes a long-ranged immobile artillery piece.
** While submerged, the Whiskey fires torpedoes at other ships. When surfaced, it switches to long-range missiles to bombard ground targets.
* DumbMuscle: Brutes

** The Rocketeer is equipped with a small EMP, which can temporarily disable enemy defences or vehicles once every few seconds.

** Chitzkoi attacks vehicles by disabling them with EMP.
** Black Lotus' special malware attack inflicts an EMP effect on the target and nearby vehicles.
** The Asian secondary superweapon is the EMP Bomb, which calls in a bomber to disable enemy vehicles and buildings.
** Boris' EMP bullets have a chance to disable enemy vehicles.
** EMP Trucks induce an EMP upon detonation.
** Fleur can plant EMP charges that disable an enemy building for 2 minutes.
** EMP Mines disable vehicles that drive over them.
** Faulty Construction has a chance to disable enemy vehicles with EMP.
* EnemyExchangeProgram: In addition to the classic ''Command & Conquer'' way of capturing enemy production buildings with Engineers, it is also possible to make use of enemy units by mind controlling them, or (in case of vehicles) hijacking them with Hijackers or Buzzers.
* EnemySummoner: An Angry Mob Recruiter can recruit a new member for the mob every 2 minutes.
* The Engineer: Engineers can defuse bombs, repair bridges and your buildings, capture enemy buildings, or repair vehicles when put inside a Bullfrog, Avenger, Robot Tank, Scout or Assault Crawler.
* EvilDetectingDog: Attack Dogs, War Bears and Ravagers can snuff out disguised enemies without having to be manually controlled to do so.
* FireBreathingWeapon: Incinerators, Dragon Tanks and Shenlong Tanks can set enemies ablaze with flamethrowers.
* FlyingSaucer: Yuri's Drifters and Floating Discs look straight out of a sci-fi B-movie.
* FreezeRay: Cryobusters, Cryocopters and Cryo Legionnaires are armed with cryo beams. The former two slow down enemies' speed; the latter has a chance of outright freezing them in place.
* GarrisonableStructures:
** Civilian buildings, Battle Bunkers, Fortified Bunkers, Armories, Prison Camps and Palaces can be garrisoned by basic infantry, where they receive a bonus to range and damage and can't be attacked by most conventional weapons, but can't fire on aircraft and are vulnerable to units that can clear garrisons. Civilian garrisonable structures can only be repaired by Engineers and nothing else, and will force the occupants to leave if brought down to red health.
** Most infantry can garrison inside a GLA Sneak Tunnel entrance, which are all connected to each other, so units can enter and exit from any entrance. No one can fire from any of the tunnel entrances.
** The Bio Reactor can be garrisoned by all infantry who cannot fire from it but instead cause it to generate more power.
** The Tank Bunker can be occupied by a turreted non-hovering vehicle which is only vulnerable to certain attacks.
* GatheringSteam: The Gatling Buggy, Gatling Tank, Gatling Boat and Warlord Tank's barrel needs some time to spin up before it reaches its full rate of fire.
* GiantSquid: Giant Squid serve as Yuri's tier 1 naval unit.
* GoingCritical: Nuclear Reactors explode in a violent mushroom cloud when destroyed.
* GunsAkimbo: Rocketeers are armed with dual chainguns, Fleur and Tanya with dual pistols.
* HatePlague: Chaos gas (employed by Chaos Drones, Red Catalysts, Havoc Tanks, Vertigo Bombers and the Call Down support power) can send enemy units into a state of confusion where they attack any target, friend or foe, for a short time. The Chameleon's chaos laser works similarly, but only against vehicles.
* HumongousMecha: The Mecha Goliath is a massive four-legged walker that towers over most other units.
* InstantArmor:
** Combat Armor instantly applies a 30 HP shield to infantry.
** Iron Curtain instantly turns a group of friendly vehicles invulnerable. Iron Nova creates a one-hit blocker, which applies a lesser Iron Curtain when expired.
* JetPack: Rocketeers and Yuki use jetpacks to fly around. Rocket Retrofitting gives Spetsnaz hover packs, allowing them to fly.
* KillSat:
** The Athena Cannon utilises laser painters to designate targets for destruction by orbital satellites.
** When fired, the Particle Cannon will direct a concentrated beam of high-energy particles into space. There, a mirror satellite in orbit will reflect the beam and direct it onto the target.

* MacrossMissileMassacre:
** The BM-21 Grad fires a volley of rockets that take a very long time to reload.
** When activated, a Scud Storm fires 9 missiles onto the target area.
* TheMedic: Units that serve to heal friendly infantry include the Street Pharmacist (actively, one at a time), Ambulance and Support Crawler (both of which heal all infantry nearby). Vehicles can be repaired by Repair Drones, Repair Tanks, Mechanics, or Engineers in a Bullfrog, Avenger, Robot Tank, Scout or Assault Crawler.
* MobileShrubbery: The Mirage Tank has the unique ability to camouflage itself as a tree or rock as long as the tank is stationary.
* MolotovCocktail: Rioters and Mob Raiders use molotov cocktails to burn buildings.
* MolotovTruck: Car Bombs, Demolition Trucks, EMP Trucks and Demo Boats are filled with explosives, and their job is to blow themselves up in the face of the enemy.
* MoneyMultiplier: An Ore Purifier increases the amount of money you get from ore by 25%.
* MookCommander:
** Field Officers boost nearby infantry's stats by 15%.
** When upgraded with Indoctrination, Kirov Airships boost the speed of nearby units by 30%.
* MultipleLifeBars: When first destroyed, a Battle Bus only loses its wheels and remains behind as a stationary bunker for infantry.
* MutuallyExclusivePartyMembers: A Russian commander can only choose either anti-infantry or anti-vehicle Tesla Tanks. The choice is made upon building an Armory, and cannot be reversed.
* NonCombatEXP:
** Hackers passively gain experience when they're deployed and use their laptops to generate money.
** The Aircraft Training upgrade causes American aircraft to be built as veteran.

** Raider Buggies are built as veteran in tier 3.
** Picking up a Supply Crate increases experience by 500.

** Unlike normal mind controllers that can only control an enemy unit as long as the mind controller is alive, the Acolyte's mind control is permanent (and also boosts the target's stats by 33%), but kills the Acolyte in the process.
* SuperSerum:
** Juice 'Em Up heals friendly infantry and increases all of their stats by 15%.
** When healing friendly infantry, the Street Pharmacist also boosts a random stat by 5%.
* TacticalSuperweaponUnit: Ukraine's epic unit, the Mecha Goliath, must be unlocked by a tier 3 General's Power, requires its own Mechabay (instead of the normal War Factory), costs $3000, is limited to one per player, and can handily mop up anything that is on the ground.

* WorkerUnit:
** The MCV is needed to build structures and losing the MCV without being able to replace it usually means losing the game.
** For all factions except the GLA, ore miners gather ore and transport it to Refineries for procession into money. The GLA instead uses Supply Stashes (which replace conventional Refineries) and Slave Miners, which deploy uncontrollable Slaves to automatically gather ore from fields. [=PsiCorps=] and Specter also use the Psi Prison, a non-combat unit which provides passive income.
* YouNukeEm: The iconic Soviet superweapon is a big Tactical Nuke Silo. Iraq has access to a smaller version, the Rad Missile Silo.
* YouWillNotEvadeMe: Magnetrons and Drifters can lift enemy vehicles into the air and pull them towards themselves.
