How to unlock the The Knowledge achievement in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 - Definitive Guide
Your Faction: Any
AI Players: 1 -- Set to medium difficulty
(I chose Shinzu)
Map: Cabana Republic
Initial Resources: 40000
Random Bonus Crates: No
Build the following structures:
1. Reactor
2. Ore Refinery
3. Barracks
Build up to 10 Engineers, and send them off to capture the neutral structures around the map.
Sending more than the required 6 units definitely helps as some may be killed by the AI scouting units.
Be sure to update your base defenses in preparation for an enemy attack.
Got this on my first attempt in under 8 minutes.
--cheers.
play as the soviets
pick the map snow plow
set the enemy A.I as Shinzo
build a barracks and set the way point in the water outside shinzo's base then build 5 attack bears and a few engineers. When all the beaes are ready station them outside Shinzo's barracks they will kill off his infantry by this stage your engineers should be traveling along the water. Shinzo will try to build a War Factory send your first engineer in there, Your second into his barracks. Now make your remaining soviet engineers chase the MCV. His MCV should pack up and run away it will go from ore spot to ore spot so you can guess where he is headed. Now build engineers out of the rising sun barracks and capture the 2 power plants and 2 ore refinerys you should have you six now but if not. Keep following the MCV till you block it in near the north of the map the capture that and you have it
Capture 6 different structures over the course of a match, enemy or neutral structures both count.
Non-Boost Method
Create a match on any 4 player map but with only 1 opponent (4 player maps have more neutral structures). At the start of the match get a barracks out as quickly as possible and generate engineers to send out and capture neutral structures. A good map for this is Battlebase Octagon as they have numerous structures all across the map.
Boost Method
This trophy requires no effort at all since your partner shouldn't be attacking you. Send out engineers to capture 6 neutral structures and when you have them all, he can capture them from you. If there is not enough neutral structures then both of you can mass produce power plants for easy captures.
Can be done alongside "Bloodsucker," "Day of Judgment," "Girl's Best Friend," "Meat Grinder," "Sword Saint," "High Speed, Low Drag," "The Spy Who Bribed Me" and "Reign of Terror."
