'''Starting units:'''  
'''Starting units:''' Commander


The mission starts with the Commander under attack. Fight back and take down the Pyros, then capture the Radar Tower and Metal Extractor. Build an Aircraft Plant and a pair of Light Laser Towers (one on each of the north and south sides of the butte). While you're busy building the Towers, make sure your Aircraft Plant starts building fighters. The Towers will certainly help with defense, but you'll eventually need the fighters both to hold your ground and push back against the Core.
Once you have a few Freedom Fighters patrolling, start building Thunder bombers, followed by Shadows. Build a few more fighters for an attack group (made up of the newly built fighters and the Shadows, a dozen or so in total), and send them to the northern edge of the map. They should find a group of Core aircraft still on the ground in this area which will be easy targets. Keep building aircraft for the remaining cleanup, and build a transport plane to get your Commander on the move.
Send your commander over to the northern butte to capture the structures there, and prepare to head down to capture the Hydration Plant. You can try thinning out the ground forces, or just fly the commander down the northern side of the butte and land him right next to the hydration plant. Capturing the Plant is the only requirement to finish the mission, so just be careful not to destroy it or let the Commander take too much damage.
