good question i wish i had a solid answer first i think you mean the verbal breifings since i didnt see this in the written "mission objectives" (ah, Roger Wong's FAQ to the rescue)...not that it matters where it is from...i looked at the future games and there is no continuation of these locations or any real use for doctor mobius (although he is a tiberium genius, that maybe the tactical importance of him) the only thing i can offer is the map progression does follow a pattern where the earlier missions are estonia,latvia,belarus,poland, ukraine, germany,czechoslovakia, then here to austria and slovakia, then on to hungary,slovenia, romania, greece,albania, bulgaria, yugolsavia,and finally Bosnia/Herzogovina....(sorry for the spelling)...keeping the local civi population friendly is a benefit since they can turn on you (as in this level where there is one civi in Mobius's town shooting at us)..but all of this is guess work on my part.. or maybe they ran out of things to say... hey, at least the between levels stuff is detailed and entertaining...better than WarCraft 2 where the human knight and the wizard sit at the table and just stare at you (ok, so the knight does chew his food), while the story line scrolls upwards...what a bore! (sorry, i couldn't resist another hit at WarCraft2 as it sits in my closed un-played, $40 for the game and $60 to upgrade my computer to get the graphics to work) -- Fight Win Prevail But Never Cheat DSHammond <David@_deletethis_dshammond.freeserve.co.uk> wrote in article <78nnt7$622$1...@news6.svr.pol.co.uk>... > In the GDI missions where you have to protect the villagers (or repair the > base, depending on which arrow you chose) - i.e the SCG08 ones - you are > told in the mission briefing that this mission is "of great tactical > importance".
