Description:

Commander: We regret to inform you that Commander Simmons was killed when the CCA
attacked the 5th Platoon.  Their recycler and factory were lost in the attack.  The remaining
units have been repaired and are now under your command.  They are understandably fired up 
over the loss of their leader, and are eager to deliver a crushing blow to the CCA base that
launched the attack.

We've come up with one possible strategy of attack:  Use Daywrecker bombs to destroy or 
weaken the solar arrays powering their gun towers, then launch an attack.  After you've 
weakened their forces, try using the constructor to build a gun tower close enough to destroy
their recycler and factory.  However it is important that you protect your constructor and
armory at all costs!  Your mission will be very difficult if you lose the constructor.  Make sure 
that it is well defended if you bring it within range of the CCA base.

You won't be able to manufacture any more mobile combat units, so do your best to maintain 
your current units.  If your number of units gets low, you may want to consider sniping some 
enemy tanks and scavengers and then leaving them next to barracks for your troops to use.

Get that CCA base commander!  Do whatever it takes!  Make them pay for killing Commander 
Simmons!


Installation Instructions
-------------------------
Before you begin, exit Battlezone if it is running.

1) All the files in the zip file need to be unzipped into your BattleZone\addon directory 
   (folder).

2) Do not modify any of the files in any way!  The map will no longer work and/or lose
   multiplayer compatability.


Game Startup
------------
Do not play this game with the /edit option.  Otherwise, the .hgt file might be modified 
when the constructor builds units.

In order for the mission to function as intended, you should exit Battlezone before 
restarting a mission over again.

Frame rate may decrease after going to sattelite view.  To correct this, hit the "esc" key 
and then return to the game. 


Credits:  Kudos to Battlezone and Bzfrac14a.  Both are excellent map-making tools.
