Walkthrough

1
Slightly move one MCV north and deploy it in the middle of the clearing. Leave the second MCV for later.
2
Get your units out of the way. Place a power plant between your construction yard and the northern ore field.
3
Place an ore refinery above the power plant, then build another one south of your construction yard to harvest both ore fields.
4
Avoid the right side of the cliffs where Mammoth tanks patrol.
5
Line the top of your base with anti-aircraft guns to counter air strikes.
6
Mass-produce light tanks.
7
Build a tech center for the invaluable satellite.
8
Once you have enough tanks, move north and crush the Soviet base. Target Tesla Coils first, then Mammoths and heavy tanks.
9
Ensure you destroy the Soviet base in a single attack.
10
After destroying the base, send your second MCV up and deploy it near the ore field. Place a new ore refinery there to harvest their ore.
11
Destroy the concrete north of the Soviet base.
12
Build a few silos until you can build one on the other side of the ridge.
13
Build a barracks up there and use infantry to wipe out the Soviet power plants. Capturing buildings is beneficial as they can still build with their second construction yard.
14
If you capture a building near the water, place a naval yard in the river.
15
Build Destroyers to deal with submarines.
16
Ignore the Tesla Coils on the island for now.
17
Destroy any nearby submarines.
18
Send Destroyers over to shell the other base until it's significantly damaged.
19
Transport tanks over to finish off the remaining enemy structures.
20
Search the water for any remaining submarines.
21
Once the area is clear, Allied reinforcements will arrive, completing the mission.

Tips

Deploying your MCV in the center of the clearing provides a good starting position.
Harvesting from both ore fields simultaneously speeds up resource gathering.
Anti-aircraft guns are crucial for defending against Soviet air attacks.
The tech center's satellite provides vital intelligence.
Taking out the Soviet base in one decisive assault prevents them from rebuilding or reinforcing.
Capturing enemy buildings, especially power plants, hinders their ability to produce units and structures.
Destroyers are effective against submarines and for softening up enemy bases from the water.
