Command & Conquer: Generals - Zero Hour/USA Mission 1

This is an introductory mission that allows the player to familiarize himself with the game while not under the stress of full combat.

Take the train to the GLA base and destroy it to win the mission.


 * Take out the GLA infantry on the bridge with Sentry Drones.
 * To practice repair technique, highlight all units involved in combat and click on the War Factory. The units will return repaired to the battle front if the waypoint is positioned to that area.
 * Pick your General Power from the upper-right corner of the command panel.
 * Research both the Captive and Flash Bang abilities at the Barracks.
 * Use your Rangers’ captive command, once researched, to capture the oil derrick and oil refinery.
 * Upgrade your tanks with battle drones to help combat infantry. Use the tanks to destroy the Stinger sites.
 * Practice the Flash Bang technology of the Rangers by clicking on a Ranger or Rangers, selecting the Flash Bang command on the unit, then target the two fortified buildings to the west. Just a single shot can clear out the entire structure!!
 * Build extra units to your choosing and go west and destroy the GLA in the area.

The train will now arrive, where you can “sneak” your troops to the main GLA base.


 * Load the train with mostly heavy armor, as many of the lighter units can be destroyed immediately when getting off the train.
 * Eliminate the upper portion of the GLA base. Air power will destroy the lower portion of the base in a cut scene.

Mission accomplished!
