Objective: Invade the Soviet Union and establish an Empire foothold in Vladivostok.
Strategy: This introductory mission for the Empire showcases their unique mobile base and transforming units. Start by deploying your Construction Yard (Nanocore) and building a Power Generator, then a Dojo. Train a few Imperial Warriors to defend your Construction Yard. Your co-commander will establish their own base nearby. Get a Refinery up quickly on the nearby Ore Mine. Once your economy is stable, build a Mecha Bay and start producing Mecha Tengus. The Soviets will primarily attack with Conscripts and Sickles. Use your Imperial Warriors to garrison buildings for increased firepower against infantry, and use your Mecha Tengus to engage both ground and air threats by transforming them as needed. Build a few Defender Cores for base defense, which can transform into defensive turrets. Your co-commander will often send units to assist, but ensure your own defenses are robust. Expand your power grid as needed. The mission concludes once all Soviet forces in the area are eliminated and your base is secure. Focus on utilizing the versatility of your Mecha Tengus and the rapid deployment of your Nanocores. use the 'Burst Drone' ability of your Imperial Warriors for area denial against infantry.
