SCB09ea, either arrow brings you here..Egypt

first of all, did you use my "December 1, tip of the week " to get extra
money to start this mission? You will need it! I'll email it to you

save early and save often
practice to keep you commando healthy, he'll need it
use the command to rescue the four bazooka men.  forget the engineers, they
are toast (airstrike you know)

once you get the bazooka men, with the commando in the lead, backtrack
south from the bridge along the ridge, then head south east until you get
to your base (be careful there is a gun boat in the river)

at your base, you will be attacked from the north west .set you bazooka men
into teams of one (number them with the CTRL #) to attack vehicles, and use
the commado to attack troops

set up a barracks (be sure to have plenty of power), then get an engineer
started, then build two more barracks (three barracks speed the training) 
use the engineer to take over the refinery once the harvester is docked.

set up three sandbags north west and build two turrents to defend, 
flamethrowers are good to kill troops, but be careful they tend to shoot
each other.  you may hear a "units lost", thats your engineers at a GDI
hosted roast in their honor ("Hehehe, I got a present for you", airstrike).
 Be careful, the next airstrike will be you unless you :
Try to keep "scouts" at a nothwest point higher than your other units.
airstrike will attack them, not your base.  Tell them its a simple Recon
mission.(hehehe)

Build two refineries to the east, there is a large patch straight east.
there is more northwest, but beware of airstrikes against your wandering
harvester
build airbases to get vehicles, tanks flametanks and rocket buggies are the
best.

if you have problems, or want help with the end game, post again or just
e-mail me direct
