Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun "Capture Hammerfest Base"
Henning Schnoor
I can't seem to finish the "Hammerfest Base" mission (GDI). It' the one
with re-capturing the base.
I start with three Hovers and a troop of engeneers with an APC. With the
Hovers, I can destroy an ice wall, and behind this wall, there are power
plants. I destroyed those as well.
With the plants destroyed, I can get past the Obelisk of Light in the
East. But the base I have to re-capture is still protected by firestorm
walls, and I don't have a clue how to disable them. I even modified the
rules to have invincible Hovers and managed to destroy nearly the entire
NOD base, but I still can't get past these walls!
And ideas?
See you,
Henning

There is another destructible wall in the south-west of the map, which
gets you into the GDI base.

You will meet a tall dark stranger. Unfortunately he's holding a large gun.
Run for it!

Oops, it just ocurred to me that you might be trying to approach the
base over the bridge proteced by firestrom. If so, you need to take
the water route along the top of the map and destroy the cliff as per
the other post. Then you take out the power stations and ......

Thanks, but this does not work. The construction yard is still protected
by a firestorm wall. I destroyed all the power plants outside the
firestorm defense, but the firestorm walls remain online. Is there some
kind of trick I don't get?
