Mission 4: Home Front, Vladivostok

Despite your success in America, there is trouble on the home front. The Koreans have sided with the Americans, and is sending a Navy fleet to Vladivostok. You must destroy this fleet and save Mother Russia!

Objectives: Establish a base, defend Mother Russia, destroy all Allied forces.

Getting started: You start with a Construction Yard, a Naval yard, and one Typhoon Sub. You need to start building quickly. The Korean fleet will be arriving in 10 minutes! You will see the timer activated. Make additional subs (5) right away. Also build Tesla Reactors, an Ore Refinery (have your War Miner go north to the field of gems there), and get some Flak Cannons up fast. The Koreans will attack you constantly with planes from their Aircraft Carriers. Place the Flak Cannons near important buildings such as your CY and Power. When you get enough funds, build a second War Miner. Your going to need the money. You'll also need a Service Depot to repair your damaged tanks, etc.

Once the timer gets down to a few minutes, move your subs east so they will be in position to strike the Allied transports. You should also build tanks and place them in the north to protect your War Miners working in the fields there. The Allies will be attacking that area frequently. You also need to have Flak Tracks and Flak Troopers in the north end of your base for defense. Allied Rocketeers will attack you in this area. Use the Flak defenses to protect your tanks which are protecting your War Miners. Get the picture?

Now take a Flak Track and explore the entire map, concentrating mainly on the shoreline. You won't find much in the west and south parts of the map. In the east you will find the Allied base. You should try to uncover at least the edges of this base with your Flak Track. You should also take your Typhoon Subs and head to the Allied base. Take out the Naval Yard and any Allied ships there. 

Tip: If you can capture an Air Force Command with one of your Engineers, you can use the Harrier Jets to help you complete the mission. You can also use your Engineer to capture any of the buildings in the base. It's much faster than using the tanks to destroy them. Just place them in Flak Tracks for protection and drive em right into the Allied base. Also, don't forget to use your Sea Scorpions to shell enemy infantry along the shore. 

Final Attack: Time to end this battle. Once you have enough funds, build 10 tanks, a couple Flak Tracks, and some V3 Rockets. Send them along the southern beach. Push your way into the Allied base and hit whatever you can. Keep cranking out units and send them to the Allied base. Keep the pressure on. If Allied resistance gets to heavy for you, pull out your forces and regroup. You don't have to destroy it in one big attack. Just chip away until you weaken them. The most important things to target is the Construction Yard, the Refineries, and the Chrono Miners. If you disrupt their ability to produce units, they will soon fall. 

Once you destroy the Construction Yard and stop the flow of money to the Allies, this battle should end very fast. Just keep on attacking and victory will be yours.
