Aggree with this - but I thought I had them all, and still no nukes :(  have to 
try
again I guess :)  And make sure I get the Nuke Crates!!

When I grabbed the crates, it didnt really seem like I got them - like in the 
last mission for the NOD, the church on the island that you get the commando on
 - there is a crate under it, and when I got that - I KNEW I got it, is dollar 
sign came up - and I got the money!!

When you get the detonator crates - what should you see????

No you are Wrong Bud!!! You can get All of the GDI Stuff, if you steal a GDI 
Contruction
Site!!! Then you have access to all their Stuff!!!  But I dont think you can 
build the Commando, or transport chopper ( atleast I never did ) - but you can 
build the Weapons center - so you can build Mammath Tanks, and you can get
access to the attack copter! and APC's, and grenadiers etc...

This is a Real Easy to Do in the Last Mission for the NOD, since the GDI have 
like three of them, you should be able to steal ONE - the one thing I did notice 
though, that I thought was kind of odd - when you build the heliopad, your copter 
does not shoot missles, but it shoots a Chain Gun!

Copters are not worth much anyway!! they are so easy to kill it a joke!!! atleast 
against the computer player - just send a scout bike, or a jeep - so that the 
orca's attack - and then high tail it back to one ( or 2 ) of your Sam Sites - 
Orca is Toast!!!  This would probably not work against a human player - who was 
watching the attack, since he would reassign the target, if the orca got to close 
to a sam site.
