Mission script[]
Instructor: Today you will fight a mock battle against another commander. He will command the Red Team, you will command the Blue Team. Select your mobile construction vehicle by left-clicking on it, then order it to move out of the base. Move out to the east, and try to find some open ground.
[Objective 1: Move your mobile construction vehicle to open ground]
Instructor: Your mobile construction vehicle is now in open ground. Double-click on it to deploy a construction yard.
[Objective 2: Deploy your mobile construction vehicle into a construction yard]
Instructor: Now that you have a construction yard, you can begin to build a base. On the right side of your screen you can see that the icon for a power plant has appeared. Left-click on that icon to start construction of the power plant. Notice how your remaining money decreases while the power plant is building. Each building has a cost to construct. When the power plant is done building, left-click on its image, and then left-click on an empty area near your construction yard. If you see red squares where you are trying to place it, then you are either trying to place the power plant too far away from your construction yard, or you are trying to build on uneven ground.
[Objective 3: Build a power plant]
Instructor: Good, now your base has power. Notice the power indicator on the left side of your build bar. Each structure you build has a power cost. If your base runs short of power, some buildings will stop working and others will work inefficiently. Now it's time to build a refinery so you can begin harvesting. Ore and gems are harvested by your miners and converted to cash. Left-click on the ore refinery icon. When your refinery is ready, place it in the same way you did with the power plant.
[Objective 4: Build an ore refinery]
Instructor: Your new Chrono Miner will automatically begin to collect ore.
[Objective 5: Build a Barracks]
Instructor: Many buildings and units depend on one another. Placing a power plant allowed you to build a refinery and barracks. Placing a barracks will allow you to train infantry. Left-click on the barracks to start its construction. When it's finished, place it on the terrain just like you did with the refinery and power plant.
[Objective 6: Build a squad of GIs]
Instructor: On the right-hand side of your screen, you should see a button that looks like a soldier. When you press that button, you will see the different types of soldiers that you can train. Right now, all you can train is a GI. Left-click on the GI to start training him. Left-click multiple times to train a series of GIs.
[Deploy your GIs near the entrance to your base for a better defense]
Instructor: Crates can be collected for special bonuses. This one contains a cash bonus.
[WARNING: Red Team invasion imminent]
Instructor: Red Team may attack soon. Your GIs are armed with rubber bullets for this mission. In real combat they would, of course, be shooting real bullets.
Instructor: Your GIs can garrison inside many civilian structures. Select one of your GIs, then left-click on the barn to send him in. While garrisoned, your troops are protected from enemy fire. When the structure is severely damaged, all occupants will be ejected.
Instructor: To exit your soldiers from a civilian structure, select the structure, then click on it again.
[Objective 7: Destroy Red Team's base]
Instructor: Red Team's strike force has been defeated. Now build some more soldiers, commander, and when you feel you're ready, move them out onto the map. Find Red Team's command center and destroy it.
[Mission Accomplished]
Instructor: Good job, commander. You've defeated the Red Team. Your basic training is complete.
