NEXUS
has Laser Satellites online and is using them to destroy your
original base. Get all your units south of the LZ, or they'll
be destroyed, too. The Laser Satellites will begin destroying
structures in the northern part of the map and gradually move
south to the LZ. With luck, you had enough time to begin to relocate
your base during the last part of the previous mission. The valley
northeast of Gamma Base is a great site. You need another Factory,
a Repair Facility, and several Rearming Pads. While your northern
structures are still functioning, use them to produce units rapidly.
Send the new units south and form them into combat groups. As
you get your new base up and running, send a combat group south
of the new base. The NEXUS Towers there will cause your base some
problems. Take them out and return damaged units for repairs.

For
this phase, you'll need three combat groups and a VTOL group of
at least 10 units each. Send the ground units towards the east.
The missile silos lie in the southeast, but you must advance along
the eastern map edge to get there. Avoid the northwest. NEXUS
has another base there, but you needn't destroy it.
As soon as you locate
enemy SAM sites, attack them with the VTOLs. When the area is
clear, use the VTOLs to help take out defensive structures along
your route of advance. Both VTOLs and ground units will take heavy
casualties, so keep your Factories producing full-time. As your
ground units advance, keep them close together. When you encounter
enemy defenses, concentrate their fire to destroy the structure
before advancing farther. As your combat groups become depleted,
organize the survivors into a single group and form new groups
from repaired and newly produced units. You must keep exerting
pressure on the enemy. Halting your advance gives NEXUS time to
repair and build more units.
The enemy SAMs wreak havoc
on your VTOLs, but try to knock them all out. Then use the VTOLs
to enter the enemy base and take out all the Factories. The sooner
you do this, the fewer enemy units you'll have to face. Continue
pushing south. Once you reach the missile silos and destroy the
nearby enemy structures, the mission ends.
