Mission 10: The Last Hope (GLA Campaign)

In Mission 10 of the Global Liberation Army campaign, "The Last Hope," players face a desperate situation as the GLA attempts to secure a vital resource and repel a final GDI assault. This mission tests your ability to manage resources, defend key locations, and launch a decisive counter-offensive against overwhelming odds.

Mission 10, "The Last Hope," marks a critical juncture in the GLA campaign of Command & Conquer: Generals. The GDI has launched a massive offensive, aiming to crush the GLA's remaining forces and seize control of a strategically important area. Your objective is to rally the scattered GLA forces, defend against relentless GDI attacks, and ultimately push them back, securing a vital victory that lives up to the mission's name.

Mission Objectives

• Primary Objective: Defend the GLA base and prevent GDI from destroying it.
• Secondary Objective: Destroy the GDI Command Center.
• Optional Objective: Capture the GDI listening outposts to gain intelligence and deny GDI communications.

Starting the Mission

You begin with a small GLA base, including a Barracks, Arms Dealer, and a few defensive structures. The initial waves of GDI forces will be light, allowing you to quickly establish your economy by building more workers and expanding your Tiberium harvesting operations. Prioritize building a Power Plant and a War Factory.

Key Strategies and Tactics

• Early Defense: GDI will launch probing attacks early on. Position Scorpion Tanks and Technicals to intercept them. Consider building a few Stinger Sites to deter air assaults.
• Resource Management: The GLA economy relies heavily on capturing resources. Ensure you have multiple workers harvesting Tiberium and Scrap. Capturing the nearby Scrap Docks will provide a steady income.
• Infantry Focus: GLA infantry, particularly Rebels and Terrorists, are crucial. Use Rebels to counter GDI infantry and light vehicles, while Terrorists are excellent for taking down heavy armor and buildings. Train a steady stream of these units.
• Scrap Defenses: use the unique "Scrap Defenses" ability. Gather scrap metal from destroyed vehicles and structures to build temporary defensive emplacements like Rocket Launchers or Machine Gun Turrets. These are vital for reinforcing your base quickly.
• Counter-Attacking: Once you have a stable economy and a decent army, begin to push outwards. Focus on destroying GDI's supply lines and forward bases. The GLA's mobility, especially with Technicals, is key here.
• Capturing Outposts: The optional objective of capturing GDI Listening Outposts is highly recommended. Use stealthy units like the GLA Commando or a few Technicals to sneak in and capture them with your Workers. These outposts provide valuable intel and can disrupt GDI's radar.
• The Final Push: As the mission progresses, GDI will launch increasingly powerful assaults. You'll need a strong mix of Scorpion Tanks, Technicals, and infantry. The GLA Commando is invaluable for taking out key GDI units and structures. Focus your attacks on the GDI Command Center to end the mission.

Important Units to Train

• Worker: Essential for economy and capturing buildings.
• Rebel: Good all-around infantry, effective against other infantry and light vehicles.
• Scorpion Tank: Your primary anti-vehicle unit.
• Technical: Fast and versatile, good for harassment and anti-infantry.
• Terrorist: Devastating against buildings and heavy armor, but fragile.
• GLA Commando: A powerful hero unit capable of taking down multiple targets.

By carefully balancing your economy, building a versatile army, and using the GLA's unique abilities, you can overcome the GDI's "Last Hope" and secure a crucial victory for the Global Liberation Army.
