  • Zofia makes her entrance to the Soviet campaign clad in leather bondage gear. However she remains loyal and committed to the Soviet cause. In the second to last mission she discovers a video tape revealing Yuri is the traitor, and shows it to you, the Commander, before saying her final goodbyes. In the expansion pack, flirting aside she is really committed to your cause, wishing for your safe return.
  • In the expansion Lt. Eva had unwillingly disclosed the meeting location of the world leaders to Yuri. The final mission briefing showed that she was about to tend her resignation before Carville cuts in, telling her she isn't the only one that had been brainwashed like this and it wasn't her fault at all. In response? She stays and uses the communication links to find out Yuri's hiding spot in Antarctica.
    Lt. Eva: Effective immediately, I am tending my resignation-
    Gen. Carville: Hogwash! You're a vital part of this team, Lieutenant! If you think you're the only officer to to have his brain twisted by that maniac, you're free to leave! Otherwise, I won't hear more foolishness about resignations. Are you with us?
    Lt. Eva [with a growing smile on her face]: Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.
  • In the Soviet Campaign of Yuri's Revenge, Romanov is FAR friendlier, even outright JOLLY at times, without Yuri's manipulation AND knowing you are loyal beyond a doubt, and actually seems to regard you as a friend.
  • In the Allied Campaign of Yuri's Revenge, General Carville not only survives the story this time, he is kept around in the end when the timelines merge:
    General Carville: How've you been, Mr. President?
    The President: [stunned] General... Carville? H-how...
    General Carville: Did you ever hear of time travel, sir?
  • In Yuri's Revenge, the Soviet missions are quite heartwarming depending on your opinion: the remanant of Soviet forces makes a desperate gamble to revise history. With Yuri not influencing Romanov, we actually sees Premier's humane side and his jolly attitude to dire situation. In face, when playing the missions, you feel that Soviet is actually protecting the world from Yuri's forces from Earth to Moon. Even the end cutscene is an exaggerated happy ending, no longer shall the world feel the oppression of an exploited economy built upon trade and capitalization and the rocket technology means this new order can spread throughout the Solar System.
  • Liberating the slaves used by Yuri's Slave Miners. They become OVERJOYED at being set free and all of their lines are genuinely touching to hear due to how happy and grateful towards you they are.
