Easter Island: Stone Faced Witness

Mission Objectives:
  • Build an Ambush Force
  • Destroy the Allied Emissary and His Escort
  • Await Further Orders in the Field
  • Stop the Allied Counter-Offensive
  • Destroy the Vacuum Imploder before it fires
  • Destroy the Premier's Volcano Fortress

    Work on a solid build order to make this mission a success. You will be well prepared when the Emissary arrives the faster you can work.An optimal build order in the beginning of this mission will ensure your success. The first thing you should build is a reactor, followed by a crane. You can then feel free to dump two refineries onto your gathering spots. Once those are done, a reactor and super reactor should be built. When the reactor is done, build a barracks and prepare to capture the two oil derricks to the north with a pair of engineers. If you were playing this with a friend, you would only take one of them. With the AI, there's no one to gripe! Build a shipyard and train a sputnik to take the southeastern sea-based refinery spot, followed by four akulas. Protect the refinery with two tesla coils and a sentry gun.

    A pair of flak cannons to the northwest will help you to hold off any future kirov attacks from the air. A single tesla coil placed near the diplomatic ship will help to destroy the aircraft carrier when it finally arrives. As the countdown winds down, move your akulas near the sea refinery to take out the allied ships faster.

    The allies will set up a small base to the west. Build a battle lab at your base, while you make some bullfrogs to protect against cryocopter and bomber attacks. Use the super magnetic sattelite when the allies attack with cruisers to nullify them while you repair your akulas with a crane. When the battle lab is done, you can make several dreadnoughts to take out the allied base. Land units in the form of many apocalypse tanks, flak troopers and conscripts should be produced in the meantime.

    The allies won't be too hard to defeat, especially with your co-commander's help. Another sputnik should be built to take the two refinery spots on the allies' island once they're defeated. Place a couple of flak cannons and a tesla coil to hold the area. You should now be rolling in cash.

    With the right preparations, and the massive income from ore mines and oil derricks you can achieve on this mission, building a huge army is a quick task.While your land forces are going up, you can move and work with your co-commander to eliminate the premier's naval yards far to the north. When they're down, the sea will be yours and you won't have to worry about that aspect of the battlefield any longer.

    Finishing off the premier will be as simple a matter as keeping a large diverse force together while using V4s to smack down his moai statues and other static defenses. use your V4s to hit judiciously while your army protects them. While your forces are away, always keep building units to have more ready just in case you have an epic failure. Anti-air should always be the first type of unit on your list when you are reinforcing to protect against twinblades and kirovs.
