Anyone have any success with Command And Conquer Generals, GLA mission 
seven in brutal mode. 
I get my but kicked every time.   Made it through all the other 
missions, some with a great deal of effort, but the last GLA mission 
wears me out.
Any ideas?

The secret is to build minimal defences around your base and quickly dive to
take out the USA base and build your own in its place (or capture it). The
Chinese army doesn't activate until the mission is well underway and you can
win the game without blowing up the chinese base. A few SCUDs, some
marauders or scorpions with rocket upgrades, and some quad cannons should be
able to make quick work of the USA base, which is spread out and hard to
defend.  When the defenders go down, bring in technicals filled with workers
and rebels to capture the base and secure it with defensive facilities.
Build stinger sites around the critical control centre before capturing it.
With an even more sizeable force, head north to the launch site and capture
the launch facility. Your SCUDs should take out bunkers and your tanks
should blunt any chinese offensives while workers quickly build backup
tunnels and scud sites as your rebels capture the launch facility. Whether
or not the chinese are still around, it's mission complete when the launch
centre is yours.

Yea, thats pretty much the way I did it.   I tried it again, I can do it 
in normal mode, but try it in *brutal* and the you know what hits the fan.
