In Red Alert, this power up gave the player a random squad of infantry although this does not function in Red Alert 2. The crate defaults to the action of the Money crate instead, granting the player a sum of cash.

Notes

According to code analysis, it also has the following rules in Red Alert:

• If currently having 100 Infantry, then switch to Money Crate.
  • This is similar to the Unit Crate rule, except the latter has a threshold of 50.
• If the first Infantry creation fails, then switch to Money Crate.
  • But if the first Infantry creation succeeds, then regardless of whether subsequent Infantry succeed or not, no further judgment will be made.
• The crate can give up to 5 Infantry, types include the following:

Infantry	INI name	Type number	Weight
Rifle infantry	[E1]	INFANTRY_E1	6
Grenadier	[E2]	INFANTRY_E2	1
Rocket soldier	[E3]	INFANTRY_E3	1
Engineer	[E6]	INFANTRY_RENOVATOR	1
