For this mission, the recommendation is to simply "blitz" to the crate without stopping to worry about enemies.  Take this with several grains of salt, because it is better to carefully eliminate static enemies along the route, and it is important to defeat the initial and immediate Nod attack, otherwise your force will be severely damaged before the final assault. The route here involves crossing a Tiberium patch, turning left, and following the path to the south.  Drive to the enemy base; the crate is found in the north-west corner of the map. The main point is to avoid exploring the map.

Because Tiberium damages foot soldiers (and HMMVs), load your soldiers onto the APCs before bringing them across the Tiberium field.  Unload them once you're past the Tiberium, and advance towards the base as desired.

It is possible to flank the enemy base by continuing north, and driving the troops across the tiberium field.  However, this causes NOD to deploy a few soldiers as reinforcements that will attack from behind. At best, you can destroy the hand of nod in order to cut down on enemy reconstruction, but it's generally harder as the enemy's rocket soldiers have slightly longer range. Bear in mind that there is no real gain to trying to finesse the final assault. As soon as one of your guys touches the crate, the scenario is over.

After the cutscene, you are brought to the mission selection screen.  Unlike other missions, the available missions depend on which mission you chose for the next chapter:


* Repair the base (Ukraine): Available if you chose the right arrow to retrieve the rods from Belarus.  Although there are two arrows to indicate different missions, they actually lead to the same one.
* Repair the base (Germany, North): Available if you originally chose the left or middle arrow.  This is identical to the Ukraine version of the next mission.
* Repair the base (Germany, North): Available if you originally chose the left or middle arrow.  This is identical to the Ukraine version of the next mission.
* Repair the base (Germany, South): Available if you originally chose the left or middle arrow. The only mission that's different than the other two.
