  • If you defeat Dr. Thrax:
    Dr. Thrax: Eh, perhaps I shouldn't have gotten my degree from mail-order college...
    • Many of Dr. Thrax's lines count as this, but one particular example is his reaction to getting many of his infantry killed in Challenge Mode, where it's revealed that he doesn't even care about the GLA's mission and cause just by giving away that he recognizes what he's doing is objectively evil and that the GLA deserve to die.
    Dr. Thrax: "Guh! My brave warriors! How can you do this to them?! What did they ever do to- oh wait, never mind."
    • Another good example is his response to a player using China launching a Nuclear Missile at him during his Challenge.
      Dr. Thrax: "Ah ah ah!~ Your nuclear missile will only mutate us, and make us stronger! HEH-HEH-HEH!"
  • The two of the GLA Scorpion's selection quotes are "Our will is strong." and "Light tank of the GLA." There is a fair chance of making the unit say these lines in immediate succession which makes it sound "Our will is strong like tank of the GLA." It somes off as quite funny considering how brittle all GLA units are.
  • Arming the Angry Mob. You would feel like a horrible person for laughing at this.
    You: AK-47's for everyone!
    Angry Mob: Allalalalalalalah!
  • The death sounds of the GLA Technical vehicle are freakin' hilarious and never get old, especially supplemented by the backside gunner flying from any destroyed Technical(s).
  • The way Mig pilots scream "CHIIIIINNNNNAAAAAA!" when they crash never gets old, especially if they're trying it against massed EMP patriots (at which their plane shuts off...mid-air).
  • Same for Aurora bombers dying within seconds of each other.
  • Land mines upgrades for any Chinese buildings can be force fired upon by any explosive/cannon weapons, taking any units nearby with it...
  • One of the signboards for Chinese structures says "Beware of shoe theft". Now have a think about where the GLA could've gotten the shoes for their workers from...
  • Although it's gone unused the "surrendering" dialogue for the GLA Workers make it a 100% that they do not care about their situation, unlike the other infantry units unused surrendering dialogue.
    (In a cheerful, tongue-in-cheek tone) "I surrender!"
    "Here, take me, I don't care!
    "Take me first!"
  • Throughout the whole match against General Alexander she repeatedly taunts you and claims that "her best superweapon is her brain". And when she's on the brink of defeat, she's only able to think of the following trick:
    Gen. Alexander: General, look! Someone's capturing your buildings! *sighs* Not gonna fall for it, huh...?
  • Alexander in general can be quite funny, as she's incredibly smug while fighting you, but the second things start going downhill for her she tries to guilt-trip you, laments your "disrespect" and tries to invoke Honor Before Reason from the your part.
  • All General Granger has to say when he loses the match is to wonder aloud whether he should quit his job and start working for an airline.
