Upper Route Walkthrough (2)

Deploy your construction yard immediately upon arrival. Build a power plant to the left of the construction yard, then an ore refinery to the left of the power plant. Build a barracks.

Defend against initial light Soviet forces from the south and south-west using infantry and Rangers.

Throughout the mission, defend against incoming Soviet transports and constant Yak attacks.

Your first objective is to stop the barracks directly south of your base.

Once you have a war factory and approximately five medium tanks, advance south. Destroy the flame towers, barracks, and any units in the area. Leave the radar station intact.

Capture the radar station to gain visibility of parts of the Soviet map and to make building a naval yard easier.

Continue building medium tanks. Create two groups: one on the beach by the ore field east of the radar station, and another on the beach by the south-west ore field. Lining tanks along the beaches will destroy incoming Soviet transports before they can unload.

Defend your base against Yaks by surrounding it with anti-aircraft guns.

After securing the beaches and your base, build a naval yard in the water below the captured radar station.

Produce about eight gunships and send them east, following the shore north. Destroy any submarines encountered. Stop at the eastern edge of the map in the far upper-right corner. Return the gunships to your naval yard for repairs.

Build three naval transports. Load them with 14 medium tanks and one spy.

Send all three transports to the north-eastern shore of the Soviet landmass and unload.

Use the tanks to clear Soviet forces near the top of their base. Send the spy into the upper tech center when it is safe.

Wipe out the remaining Soviets. Be cautious of the Tesla Coil located in the ore field west of their construction yard.

After destroying all ground structures, locate and destroy any remaining submarines. Use your gunship group to destroy four submarines: one between the small island and the Soviet landmass, two in the small gulf near the sub pen, and one in the thin strip of water in the south-east.
