Introduction[]

Carville: Ants!? Is this some kind of a joke? You got ants in your pants, call an exterminator, I'm on vacation. What? How big!? Casualties? What do you mean the southern perimeter's been compromised? Listen up soldier, if we lose England its not gonna be to a bunch of pinko ants, I don't care how big! Look I don't care how you do it son, I'd piss on a spark plug if I thought it do any good. You just tell your men to get out there and kick some ant ass!

Carville ends phone call.

Carville: Ants?...

Carville shakes his head in disbelief.

Briefings[]

Discovery[]

We've lost contact with one of our outposts. Before it went off-line, we received a brief communique about giant ants. We're unsure what to make of this report, so we want you to investigate.

Scout the area, bring the outpost back on-line, and report your findings. If there is a threat, reinforcements will be sent in to help you.

Keep the base functional and radio contact open -- we don't want to lose the outpost again.

Rescue![]

Who would've believed it -- Giant Ants.

Now that your MCV has arrived, we must evacuate the civilians in the area -- they don't stand a chance against these ants.

There are two villages in your immediate area. Locate them and evacuate the civilians to the island in the northwest. You'll also have to take out all the bridges in this area to stop the ants from completely overrunning you.

You must destroy the bridges, and evac at least one civilian from each town for the mission to be a success.

Hunt![]

The source of the ant's activity has been pinpointed in this area. We suspect that their nests are in this area -- they must be destroyed!

A team of civilian specialists are en-route to your location. Use them to gas all the ant nests in the area. In addition, destroy all ants that you encounter.

Be careful -- these things can chew through anything. Good luck.

Exterminate![]

We've discovered a series of tunnels underneath the ruined base. Now that we've cut off their escape routes, the ants have nowhere left to run to.

Perform a sweep and clear of all the tunnels, and find the cause of these abominations. Destroy anything that isn't human!

The power to the tunnel lights have been knocked out, which will limit visibility. Find the generator controls, and you can re-activate the lights.
