Were you looking for the henchman Red Ivan from Evil Genius?
Red Ivan is a returning character, and Evil Genius in Evil Genius 2.
Description[]
Red Ivan is a playable Genius and returning character in Evil Genius 2. His appearance resembles more of a general than a mercenary, as he is a lot bulkier, now sports a commissar cap instead of his red beret (which he keeps as a display alongside his old rocket launcher), several medals, and a sash, while also having grown a grey beard (he was previously clean shaven in the first game), and has seemingly lost both his left eye, and his left hand, replacing it with a robotic metal hand.
After helping the evil genius take over the world in the first game, he was given a country which he named "Ivania". After the evil genius left and the forces of justice reformed, Ivan lost Ivania and vowed to take over the world to avenge Ivania, with the help of his H.A.V.O.C. doomsday device.
Biography[]
"Life in H.A.M.M.E.R.'s military was far too peaceful for Red Ivan's taste. After earning his nickname on the battlefield, he established himself as a fearsome gun for hire.
When the last evil genius arose, he immediately joined up and made himself an invaluable henchman. As a reward for his service, he was gifted a country of his very own to rule with a (literal) iron fist. The citizens of Ivania never question their leader.
And since his last employer disappeared, there he has stayed... until now."
Abilities[]
Red Ivan has three abilities he can use to further His goals.
Do it now!: Red Ivan projects an aura around him which makes minions both rally to him, and focus on near by tasks such as construction. Any nearby minions receive a Buff called 'Do it now!' granting them increased armor.
Old School: Red Ivan equips his old rocket launcher and fires it at nearby agents. This can cause damage to minions and objects, so use with caution.
Might makes right: Born in battle, Ivan is capable of marshaling a large amount of muscle minions without paying quite so much. Even his worker minions pack a better punch. This translates to a passive buff granting -25% salary of Muscle minions, and all minions deal +5 damage with melee, unarmed and ranged attacks.
Red Ivan will execute minions and henchmen at first with his mechanical hand by slamming them onto the ground hard, and later down the line of his campaign, will obtain a mini H.A.V.O.C. which acts like a literal hand cannon shooting his mechanical hand, be warned that if used, other minions can die and items can get harmed due to the explosion used in the execution.
Doomsday Weapon[]
Ivan's end goal is to construct a doomsday device known as H.A.V.O.C. Its first stage appears to resemble a large barrel gun of sorts, and when launching, it unleashes a barrage of atomic fire on the target. Just like with all doomsday devices in EG2, it causes the base to go on alert as it prepares to fire. During this time all minions will arm themselves if possible, tourists will evacuate, and any agents will do everything they can to prevent it from firing.
After firing, H.A.V.O.C will set random parts of the base on fire. It is advised to have fire extinguishers on every floor to contain its effects.
