This page includes a transcript of Snow Fall, the third American mission of Command & Conquer: Generals - Zero Hour.[1]

Introduction[]

[BNN]
[LIVE]
[VIA VIDEOPHONE]

James Seabury: A terrorist base destroyed by American forces while defending civilian relief convoys has yielded documents that provide important clues regarding the GLA's toxin program. Reports suggest that a key research facility, as well as a possible source of funding for the relief program, have been identified. Although the US commander will not provide confirmation, our network analysts predict that if the intelligence is reliable, America will respond. This is James Seabury, reporting from Falcon Base.

Mission script[]

Cutscene 1[]

[Mount Elbrus, Russia]
['Operation: Snow Fall']

A B-3 bomber cruises overhead while three Chinooks fly near the lab. The B-3 carpet bombs a GLA outpost, allowing for the Chinooks to land by.

Burton: Thanks for the lift boys, see you soon.

A Helix arrives on the opposite side of the river, dropping off Black Lotus.

Black Lotus: Your small Chinooks are efficient, but I prefer the strength of our Helixes. Don't worry, I'll wait for you at the lab. Do hurry!.

Burton: Oh you'll wait for me. Alright Lotus, let's race!

Gameplay 1[]

[INCOMING TRANSMISSION:]
[Col. Burton must survive]

Eva: General, Colonel Burton and Black Lotus are in position. Their primary objective is this secret laboratory. Its location was revealed by the documents captured during your last mission.

Eva: Once she has completed her download, Colonel Burton must bring down the mountainside on the lab and bury it forever.

[MISSION OBJECTIVE #1:]
[Destroy the GLA POW camp and rescue the POWs]
[Col. Burton must survive]

If Burton is at low health
[WARNING:]
[Colonel Burton is severely wounded]
[He must survive this mission]

Burton: Alright, I see the POW camp. Looks like they have a tunnel network that passes under the river.

Cutscene 2[]

Black Lotus infiltrates a nearby GLA base.

Black Lotus: Let's take their buildings from them!

The entire GLA base falls under Chinese control. Chaos breaks out.

Black Lotus: Their building is ours!

Burton: Nice work, Lotus. We're almost done here, just take care of a couple guards and I'll have everyone free.

Gameplay 2[]

After Burton killed the GLA guards, the POWs consisting of Rangers, Pathfinders and Missile Defenders are freed from the detention camp

POW: Thanks for the rescue, sir! A couple of our men broke off to check out the village east of here before we were captured. They may still be over there.

[MISSION OBJECTIVE #1:]
[Accomplished]

Eva: Congratulations, General. I'm sure the families of those men will be happy to hear they've been rescued.

[MISSION OBJECTIVE #2:]
[Move Col. Burton to the rally point]

Eva: General, the GLA's lab is directly north of your current position. There are a number of GLA defenses still along your route. Be careful.

Burton: General, I'm in position near the second POW camp. There's a tunnel network and guards out front. I can slip past them into the compound if I climb down the cliffs on the south end of the camp.

Eva: It appears that those oil derricks are the only source of income for the GLA base. If you can destroy them, you will cripple the GLA here.

Burton: Doesn't look like they were expecting me. A little C4 here and there and I'll make short work of this place. Just say the word, General.

Cutscene 3[]

Burton: This is it. I’m moving into position above the lab. Don't keep me waiting, Lotus. It’s cold up here.

Black Lotus: I'm here, Colonel. You win. The GLA put up a stronger fight than I anticipated. Beginning download.

Burton: Charges set! Say when, Lotus.

Black Lotus: I have the data. Now, Colonel!

Burton detonates the C4 explosive on the mountainside, causing an avalanche to rumble down the mountain and onto the GLA secret lab, destroying it and burying it deep in the snow
