my understanding (i don't play RA) is you should first damage the building
until it has a red health line..this reduces the ability of the inhabitants
to resist and one engineer can take over....if i recall correctly multiple
engineers can take over a healthy building, or maybe they do destroy it
while fighting the occupants (i really don;t know)....also:

I don't know if you know of them, and posted there, but the the RedAlert
newsgroups are at : 
"alt.games.command-n-conq.red-alert", or "alt.games.redalert" 

If your question is basic, i would suggest you first go to the site below
and read the FAQ from Roger Wong.  Alot of people in RedAlert suggest you
RTFM (Read The Formal Manual). (OK, so the F is not for Formal).
================================
2.4.1. FAQs
Roger Wong's FAQ/Strategy guide can be obtained from 
http://21net.com/redalert it includes a lot of graphics and is currently 
about 4MB. At the moment it costs $5.95, but an extra 10MB are going to 
be added, bringing the cost up to $9.95.
However the free version (1.04) is still available in html/text/zip at;
