Soviet

Mission 9: The Fox & the Hound, San Antonio, Texas

In this mission you will attempt to take control of the President of the United States using PSI-Corp Troopers. This mission takes place around one of the most famous Texas landmarks, the Alamo.

Objectives: Destroy Allied forces and capture the President with a PSI-Corp Trooper.

At the start: This mission begins with a massive airdrop of Soviet Conscripts around the Alamo. But they are slaughtered by Prism Towers and Navy SEALs guarding the Alamo. But this is only a diversion tactic used so a pair of Yuri units can also be dropped in the area a few blocks away from the Alamo. The Conscripts were sacrificed for the Soviet cause. May they rest in peace. 

One of the PSI Troopers captures an IFV. Go ahead and move it to your two PSI units and put one of them in it. Now head north to the small Allied base. The PSI Trooper that is walking should mind-control one of the two GIs you run into. The mind-controlled GI will start to shoot at the other one. If your mind-controlled GI gets killed, just use your IFV to kill the other GI. Now mind control one of the Engineers in the base. Take over the Barracks with him. Now take the other Engineer and take over the Battle Lab with that one. This allows you to build Spies, which will be useful to you later in the mission. If you run out of money, you can always sell the Battle Lab for additional cash. At least for now you can produce some units. Go ahead and make a couple Engineers and a large group of GIs (20).  You will be using 2 10-man GI teams to accomplish a few goals. 

Make your move: Start moving your GIs throughout the map, garrisoning buildings and taking out the enemy resistance. Just keep doing this to whittle down the opposing forces in the area. Pay attention to the attack dogs and the GIs walking around the outside of the Alamo. Take them out if you can. next, take the PSI Trooper that is in the IFV and move him to the northwest corner. Here you'll find another small Allied base. In that base is a Sniper, a tank, several GIs, a NightHawk Helicopter, a Power Plant, and a Tech Airport. First you mind control the Sniper and move him outside the base. Approach from the north side of the enemy base. Use your PSI Trooper to eliminate the GIs first. After the GIs are gone, mind-control the Grizzly Tank and destroy the Patriot Missile and the Pillboxes. Next move the tank away and mind-control the Sniper again. Now you can capture the enemy Airport with an Engineer, and you still have the Sniper you can use against the Enemy SEALs back at the Alamo!

Now take your PSI Trooper and control the tank. Blast a hole in the wall with it. Move the tank up and destroy as many GIs as you can with the tank. Send in a team of GIs to mop up this area. Just stay behind the walls so the Pillboxes don't get you. Destroy the Power Plant and have an Engineer capture the airfield. By capturing the Tech Airfield, you can now make paratroopers, which you will be dropping around the Alamo. 

On to the Alamo: The Alamo is very heavily fortified. Each entrance has dogs, SEALs, and Prism Towers. Take some Conscripts and garrison some of the buildings outside the Alamo in case the Allies decide to come outside. Have one of your PSI Troopers move into the area around the Alamo, staying more to the west. Now take the PSI Trooper that has the IFV and blast a hole into the back wall near where the Allied Power Plants are located. If your IFV is destroyed, just mind-control one of the tanks in the area and take out the Power Plants. You must take out two Power Plants so the Prism Towers will be deactivated. You can also drop some Conscript Paratroopers into the compound on the south end of the screen. Have them destroy the six trucks located here and get all the crates that appear. You'll get a pile of cash from these crates. Use them to make more GIs from your captured Barracks.

The Navy SEALs are a bit tough to deal with. Fortunately, your PSI Troopers can mind-control them out of their range of fire. So what you do is mind-control the SEALs and turn them on each other to clear out the area. Keep destroying buildings in this area. Take out all the Power Plants first. Once all this is done, It's time to get the President.

Move in with one of you PSI Troopers and mind-control the SEAL guarding the President. Use this unit to clean up the remaining Allies and buildings. The move the captured SEAL away to a different location near one of the buildings you have garrisoned. That way when you release him, your garrisoned infantry will take him out. 

All that's left to do is have the PSI Trooper capture the President and your mission is over.
