Mission Description: -------------------- As you are aware a few weeks ago, NOD, employing a combination of military force and political double dealing, successfully captured mainland Britain. NOD forces are now in striking range of all our European facilities. I'm sure I don't need to spell out just how dangerous this situation could become Commander. NOD are not, as yet, in full control of the island but their grip strengthens with every passing day. It is vital that the UK is liberated as quickly as possible. We have concentrated a large seabourne force in northern France forcing Kane's generals to respond by massing forces on the English south coast. Consequently there are weaknesses elsewhere, we intend to exploit one such weakness. The English east coast is currently protected by a massive curtain of coastal mines making access by ship or hovercraft impossible. The coastal batteries, however are not yet in place. It is here that we have decided to attack. The NOD area Commander is Colonel James Ash. You have met before, you gave him quite a mauling in the Polish campaign. He now commands elements of NODS 5th Air-Mobile Division known as the Mantis Division. His forces are somewhat depleted and he has restocked from captured GDI equipment from our East Anglian Garrisons. We do know he has ample air transport and armour but his infantry units are severely under strength, try to exploit this. Knowing Kanes tolerance of failure if you defeat Ash he may be removed from the chain of command permanently. An hour ago an elite force of Dutch and British Commandos landed on the Essex coast at the mouth of the Stour estuary to establish your landing site. your units will be air-dropped into the battle zone. Establish a base and remove the NOD presence from the area. Kane has threatened to execute all civilians in any landing site, so do your best to protect the local inhabitants, but remember, eradication of NOD forces is the prime mission objective. Intelligence has reported a large power complex to the west of the drop zone its capture may hamper NOD's defences. Once the estuary is under our control we can clear the mines and begin full scale landings The Chinooks are loaded and ready to go. Good Luck.
