Mission script
"Hard Choices"

03.05.2077 Scrin Tower, Research Quadrant

James: My crawler's inbound, Commander. You'll have to bolster the limited defenses already in place until I arrive.

Repair the Defense Base
Nash: Alright Commander, go ahead and deploy your support crawler.

Nash: Nod forces have besieged this base. You're going to have to keep it alive until Colonel James reaches the combat zone. We're uploading your first support power now: repair zone. Use it to keep the base alive.

[NEW PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: Repair Defense Base]

Nash: Powers are only half of the picture, though. You can also build units. To start, we're granting you a mobile repair craft: the Spanner.

James: Good job, Commander. Now let's find out where those bastards are coming from and put a stop to it.

[OBJECTIVE COMPLETE: Repair Defense Base]

Destroy the Tunnel Network
James: We have intel that there are Nod tunnel networks to the northwest. Taking out those tunnels should put a stop to their attacks. Get your troops into formation and follow my lead.

[NEW PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: Help Colonel James Destroy Nod Tunnel Network]

Nash: Commander, we're uploading a new support power for you: Firehawk airstrike. Target a group of enemies and watch our flyboys take 'em out. Let's give the Colonel's forces a hand.

James: Come on, Commander. We don't have all day! Get your troops in line.

[OBJECTIVE COMPLETE: Help Colonel James Destroy Nod Tunnel Network]

Eliminate Remaining Nod Forces
James: My forces are going to bunker down here in case they come back. Head southwest to the other research facility and mop up any stragglers.

[NEW PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: Eliminate Remaining Nod Forces]

Nash: Colonel James has granted you access the Orca, a flying unit capable of attacking both air and ground targets. These should help you with the remaining Nod forces in the area.

[OBJECTIVE COMPLETE: Eliminate Remaining Nod Forces]

[NEW PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: Redeploy as a GDI Defense Crawler to reinforce the area.]

Nash: Now that the area is clear, you'll need to reinforce it again. First you need to redeploy a defense crawler to help construct defensive buildings around the research facility. To the south is an uplink tower; once you capture it, scrap your current crawler and redeploy defense crawler.

[OBJECTIVE COMPLETE: Redeploy as a GDI Defense Crawler to reinforce the area.]

Nash: Now with your defense crawler, move to the designated locations and construct a bunker at each one.

[NEW PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: Construct Bunkers at Designated Locations]

[OBJECTIVE COMPLETE: Construct Bunkers at Designated Locations]

Rios: Thank you, Commander. The GDI Council appreciates your efforts.
