This page includes a transcript of In the Box, the fourth GDI mission of Tiberian Sun - Firestorm.[1]

Introduction[]

Cortez: Commander, stand by. I'm having EVA conference Dr. Boudreau into this debriefing. EVA?

EVA: Incoming transmission from Daedalus research complex, please stand by...

Boudreau: What are you doing about the assassination of Tratos, General? How could GDI let this happen? He was an integral-

Cortez: Our forces have been spread thin, Doctor. Not to mention, we're still unable to raise the Philadelphia.

Boudreau: I was there, I saw the Kodiak go down unless you forget the point of this entire operation was to get the Tacitus to Tratos.

Cortez: Let's save the recriminations. What do you have for us.

Boudreau: The Daedalus Team and I are still convinced that the Tacitus is our best approach. The assassination of Tratos has put us months, if not years, off schedule. At the present rate of Tiberium organic synthesis, within a year, maybe less, our atmosphere will be 100% toxic to humans.

Cortez: EVA, what alternatives to deciphering this Tacitus are at our disposal?

Boudreau: Actually Paul, I have an idea. You're not gonna like it: CABAL, Kane's AI.

Cortez: You serious?... EVA, analysis.

EVA: Analysis from Kane's temple indicates that Kane's master computer CABAL assisted Tratos in the translation of the Tacitus.

Cortez: Current intel on CABAL's status and location?

EVA: Interception of recent coded signals indicates that CABAL is back online. If CABAL could be captured intact, it could translate the Tacitus for GDI. I have pinpointed the locations of CABAL's data core.

Cortez: Commander, as distasteful as the idea sounds... it appears that CABAL is our best shot at stopping Tiberium contamination. Think of this as a prisoner snatch, I want a hard target recovery of CABAL. Use whatever means you deem necessary, but get that machine intact!

Briefing[]

CABAL's core is believed to be in this area. Using an engineer, infiltrate and capture the core. Cut off enemy reinforcements by destroying the two bridges that supply this base. Nod is utilizing self-powered laser fencing to protect the core from intruders. Disable this fencing by capturing the appropriate command stations using local civilian technicians. Once inside, neutralize any remaining defense systems guarding the core.

END TRANSMISSION.

  • First Objective: Destroy the two bridges to stem the flow of reinforcements.
  • Second Objective: Infiltrate and capture CABAL's core.
