Command & Conquer - Tiberian Sun Game Tip: --------- Submitted by: Ronel Greyling When playing as GDI when you are playing skirmish against NOD build 2-3 Carryalls and try to take out their deffense when their deffense is out you then get 4-5 Engineers in their construction yard and try not to Destroy it get the carryall and take the construction yard to your base repair it and then deploy for NOD technology. GameTip: -------- Submitted by: david Email: daviddereeper@hotmail.com Charge EMP on an enemy base. First build an EMP, place it and wait until it is ready to charge. Then build another EMP but do not place it. Then load (when playing as NOD) a subterainian vehicle with engeneers and send it to an enemy base, close to an enemy building then conquer this building with an engeneer. immediatly after having conquered this building place the EMP and charge on the enemy base by this the whole base will be set offline. Hints: ------ Submitted by:abhinav jagmeet@glink.net.hk * When playing skirmish, if nod, take about 7 artillery, 10 cyborgs and a cyborg commander. Place the artillery near the base and fire away. If the enemy comes too close to the artillery (the artillery can't fire enemy next to it), use the cyborgs to guard the commander by selecting them and pressing G, and destroy them. * If playing against nod, find their base as soon as the game starts and place pointers on some important buildings. This way even if they get stealth, you can spot them out. GameTip: -------- Submitted by: James Freeman y779@hotmail.com If your playing against NOD in multiplayer or the game and they have chemical missiles, you can stop their production of the missiles by aiming at that weird hole thing in the middle of veins with bombers or artillery. Once you destroy that, the veins will receed about as fast as it took to grow. No more chemical missile attacks! GameTip: -------- Submitted by: Konrad Jazwierski On the level called rescue Toronte or some thing like that name leave hour hijacker behind because he gets in the way of your shots and dies. GameTip: -------- Submitted by: bad_maverick gerson_bad_maverick@Yahoo.COM If you use NOD, or GDI-NOD. It's nice to keep your enemy's infantry or D.T away! Try to keep your Att. buggy away from these ppl. If you're busted, you cant run. The only way is (if any) try shooting an enemy Harvester, if he chase you in some of the infantry, will step off! And your Att. buggy will pop off! In other way, if the harvester didn't follow you, it may explode - COOL! - (Don't hope this much!) -- SECOND -- If you use GDI, do the same way, but keep away your harvester while you're attacking! Or attack an enemy base using a harvester [a full one], when it explode... (HE-HE!) GameTip: -------- If you are scouting send your scouting unit away from your base then go into the enemy base because if you send your unit(s)to them straight from your base the enemy will follow the path your unit(s) came from and find your base. Blue Tiberium: -------------- If you are on a stage with blue tiberium, be careful. Blue Tiberium is as flamableas gasoline. This can work to your advantage or it can be your downfall, just watch your step when you see blue tiberium. Build on Craters: ----------------- If you place pavement on top of a crater you can then build on top them. Clear Land for Building: ------------------------ If you ever just run out of land, there is a way to make the hills and raised land come down. Take any vehicles you like, and fire all of them at the raised land. The land will eventually become level with the ground. Be careful not to fire too much or an unwanted valley will be created! This does not work on mountains. Disk Thrower Tricks: -------------------- Send a group of D.T's and place them just out of the range of a laser/component tower and line them up with the defense structure. Force fire in front of the structure and the disks will bounce into the structure. Even though its not as accurate, the laser/ tower won't shoot you. You can use this in many situations to increase the attack range of your Disk Throwers. Tell a Disc thrower to force fire someplace. Then when he is about to throw tell him to fire across the map and he Will. Those Arms must really be good. Infinite Capacity Personel Carrier: ----------------------------------- First you need to have a mutant hijacker. Put him in a school bus (no other civilian vehicle works), then put as many infintry units in in the school bus as you want, and send them into the enemy base. Enjoy. Clear Land for Building: ------------------------ If you ever just run out of land, there is a way to make the hills and raised land come down. Take any vehicles you like, and fire all of them at the raised land. The land will eventually become level with the ground. Be careful not to fire too much or an unwanted valley will be created! This does not work on mountains. Free GDI Repairs on Upgrade-able Buildings: ------------------------------------------- When playing as GDI, you can build structures that can be upgraded, ie. powerplants. If a structure that can be upgraded is damaged and you build the add-on for that structure, ie. power turbine, the structure will be fully repaired. The only money that you will lose is the money that you spent on the upgrade. Health From Tiberium: --------------------- To make a Mutant Hijackers gain health from Tiberium, simply order them into a field of it. Their health will rapidly regenerate. This only works with Mutants; regular infantry will die if they are ordered into Tiberium. One hit unit kills: ------------------- When playing as Nod, if you have the laser fence sections you can kill any unit one hit. Set up two laser sections as you would normaly. Turn one of them off with the lightning icon thing. When a unit passes between the fences turn it back on. Any unit, even the Mammoth mk2 is destroyed. This is very effective in multi- player if there are alot of bridges. Easy way to destroy enemies: ---------------------------- Build a Tiberium Waste Facility and a Missle Silo. Then, when your Chemical Missile is ready, wait for your Tiberium Waste Facility to fill up again. When it does, fire your Multi Missle at your opponent's Construction Yard, which should destroy it. Then, fire your Chemical Missile at the Weapons factory. It may not be destroyed, but you will have another Chemical Missile ready. Also fire that missile at the Weapons Factory, which should finish its destruction. The enemy cannot build any more, or build vehicles. The Chemical Missile should make all surrounding troops Viceroids. The Viceroids will destroy most of the surviving buildings. Winning with an air assault: ---------------------------- The easiest way towards victory using an air assault is to take out the SAM sites. However, when you bomb SAM sites they just re-appear. When playing as NOD, purchase some subterranean APCs and fill them with engineers. Send them to the opposing teams base maker, take over the base maker, and quickly sell it. If the other team is NOD, you will first have to disable their power plants. Control NOD ore processor and mining vehicle: --------------------------------------------- Note: Try this trick on the "destroy chemical tanks" GDI mission. Position an engineer next to the NOD ore processor and wait for the mining vehicle to dock with the structure before capturing it. You will get control of the building and the vehicle. Easy building capture and profit: --------------------------------- When playing as NOD, purchase some subterranean APCs and fill them with engineers and a Cyborg Commando. Take the APCs within their base and pop up next to something important (GDI Upgrade Center, Tiberium Refinery, etc.). Have your engineers pour out and have them take it over. The commando will protect the building that you capture. Should he fail, sell the building for an easy profit. Baby Visceriods --------------- To MAKE baby visceriods, order an infantry unit into tiberium until the soldier dies. Be careful though, once they become adults they are not friendly. Hijacking Vehicles ------------------ Take a Mutant Hijacker in to a city and find a Car, truck or a bus, and select it. Now you have control over the Vehicle. They are used as transports. Kill a Cyborg Commando in One Hit --------------------------------- If you want to kill a Cyborg Commando, with out losing all of your units, there is a very simple way to do it.(You have to be able to build a GDI Firestorm Wall Generator, and Firestorm wall sections.) First fortify your base and build it up until you have the option to build a Firestorm wall, and sections, then build firestorm walls across any sections where an enemy can get into your base. When a Cyborg Commando is over one of the sections turn the Firestorm generator on and Blam! All of your problems are solved. Infinite Firestorm Wall ----------------------- If you have a firestorm wall and it is fully charged, you can make it last forever without having to turn it off to charge. First charge your wall fully, then turn it on. Before it turns off or runs out of power sell or turn off your power plants until the words "On Hold" appear in the firestorm Icon. Your wall will stay on forever and will not run out of power until you build or turn on your power plants. Level 9 Hint ------------ At this moment the most asked question is: "How do I get behind the lasercannon (The Obelisk of light). Well, at the right of the cannon there is a small base with a 'hand of NOD' building and a few powerplants. first at all you must distroy the units on that base. After that distroy all the powerplants. So the NOD has low power. Then you can pass the lasercannon or you can distroy it. when you go to the top of the map there is a base you can capture. capture it and distroy all NOD units. Easy Way To Capture Construction Yard ------------------------------------- To capture the enmy construction yard while you are the Nod, Build a subtaranium APC and put some engineears in to it. Then tell it to go to the enmies base unload the engineers and capture the base. NOTE: THIS WILL NOT WORK IF ENEMY HAS BASE PAVED OFF. Infinite Troops --------------- During the second mission build exactly 68 infantry to allow you infinite troops on the 12 mission (make sure the troops dont die or get injured or the cheat is invalid). Someone Said This Was the Real Way: ----------------------------------- Ok here is the Real way. Take 1 MLRS hoover tank and the APC to the upper-most left hand point that is still out of range of the obleisk. Then attack the obleisk with the other two MLRS's and sneak the APC and hoover tank past the obleisk. Make sure to attack first so that the Obleisk hits one of the attacking hoover tanks and no the one escorting the APC. Time it right and its easy. Then take over the Construction Yard of the old GDI base. Destroy the power plants outside the fire- storm walls to get a engineer inside to the Yard. Now secure the area by turning on the "turrets" by useing that "lightning" button by the "sell" command. Read my next tip to finish off the level and everyone after it. Double the range of your disk throwers: --------------------------------------- In order for this trick to work you must have some disk throwers (this works best with flat terrain). Then send them out to battle. Press the [Ctrl] key and force fire toward your target (not at the target. Aim for the ground in front of it). The discs will bounce off of the ground and if you aimed right, hit the target. With this, you can destroy those laser cannons or light towers without getting fired at or detected. Stealth Generator Hint: ----------------------- When you are NOD and can build a stealth generator, not only is there no use for pavement but it hurts your as well. when you build pavement and a generator the generator does not put the pavement into stealth. So if your playing against a friend (the computer is stupid so you can do it with them) dont use pavement or they will be able to see where your base is. But if your playing with redeployable mcv's then it wont matter because you can throw them of by moving it and putting pavement somewhere else and then moving your mcv back. Easy Way To Capture Construction Yard: -------------------------------------- To capture the enmy construction yard while you are the Nod, Build a subtaranium APC and put some engineears in to it. Then tell it to go to the enmies base unload the engineers and capture the base. NOTE: THIS WILL NOT WORK IF ENEMY HAS BASE PAVED OFF. Conquering Tip: ---------------- Before conquering a base,Build a defencing structure(Let's say Obelisk of Light). Don't Deploy the structure until you conquered your enemy's building. Deploy it next to your just-captured-building.This will give you a stronger post in their base. Put a hand of NOD in your foe's base to supply more engineers to conqure more buildings. Cripple Enemy in Skirmish: -------------------------- If NOD during a skirmish map find the Construction Yard and the Weapons Factory they are always very close. Send the Subterranian APC with 3 Engineers A Cyborg Commando and a Highjacker. Have a Oblisk of Light ready get in grab the weapons factory and Construction Yard (YOU MUST GET THIS ONE WEAPONS FACTORY IS OPTIONAL) and put the oblisk at their base hahahah youve screwed them build a barraks and waa laa what happens next is up to you. (DOESNT WORK IF PAVEMENT IS AROUND IT) Secret Level - "Power Grid" (GDI); ---------------------------------- In the level where you must destroy the chemical missle base first select to free the mutants. Then take the level where you have to destroy the supply base. Instead of destroying all the chemical tanks you can go north west to find a train. Take the mutants and the ghost stalker with you that you just received by reinforcement, and complete the new objective by getting the ghost stalker on the train. Then destroy the rest of the chemical tanks and get in the level called The "Power Grid". OR: --- At the 8th mission, it will be easier to destroy the 2nd generator in the nod base if u keep 2 engineers at hand, one to take over the construction yard in the nod base u encounter b4 the 2nd generator, and one to take over the refinary. After that, build a power plant, build a hand of nod for engineers to take over the enemy's hand of nod, or just blow it up, and a war factory.. build one tick tank and one artillary and position it at the middle of the two bridges, deploy them and happy killing the generator! Protection from NOD ballistic missiles: --------------------------------------- For GDI commanders, the Firestorm wall can be used as protection against NOD ballistic missiles. The walls should be placed above the base and/or in the general direction of the enemy base. They can have spaces in between to save on power and money. The Firestorm building should be fully charged. Turn on the wall when you hear the "missile launch detected" warning. If you have nothing else to do, you can watch the missile dissipate in the Firestorm wall. Note: This was done with a base at the bottom of the map. It may work differently if your base is elsewhere. Also, do not send your aircraft through the Firestorm Wall while it is activated because they will be automatically be destroyed. Tiberium vein damage: ------------------------- Tiberium veins will damage most vehicles, except for the following: NOD Buggy, Wolverine and Hover MLRS. This makes them excellent units for scouting vein areas. Veins also have no effect on infantry and Harvesters. Glitch: GDI Service Depot: -------------------------- Do not press S while a unit is moving in or out of the GDI Service Depot, because it will explode. Unrevealed Terrain message: --------------------------- Sometimes when you scroll into the black shroud the "Unrevealed Terrain" message will continuously appear at the bottom of the screen. It can happen in any mission, but will usually will occur on slower computers. 3 men in 1: ----------- Place 3 of your men inside an inflatable boat (Not including your Mariner), and make your Mariner pick up the boat. All three of your men will be inside your Mariner. Note: If your Mariner is killed, all your men that were with him will be killed as well. Better Resolution: ------------------ NOTE: With this code you ae messing with the programming of the game. You might screw the whole thing up if you're not careful. To get better resolution find the folder that TIBERIAN SUN is in, double click on the folder and find a file called SUN.ini, open it and go down to where it says [Video]. In that you should see somthing like this: ScreenWidth= ScreenHeight= StretchMovies= go to ScreenWidth= and change the number to: 1024 then go to ScreenHeight= and change the number to: 768, finally go to StretchMovies= and enter: no This will only work if the max resolution on your monitor is 1024 x 768 or higher. Unlimited Firestorm Wall: ------------------------- This trick allows a fully charged Firestorm Wall to last indefinitely without having to turn it off to recharge. First, fully charge your Firestorm Wall and turn it on. Before it turns off or runs out of power,sell or turn off your power plants until the message "On Hold" appears in the Firestorm Icon. Your Firestorm Wall will remain on indefinitely unless you build or turn on your power plants. Firestorm defense: ------------------- Play as the GDI. If your enemy likes air units or missiles, surround your base with the Firestorm Wall at a distance from your base, backed up with RPG Launchers. Whenever aircraft or missiles are detected coming toward you, turn the Firestorm on. When aircraft attack, wait until just before they cross the Firestorm line so that they cannot turn away before they are hit. Do not worry if the Firestorm is attacked by the enemy aircraft it is pretty tough. Just bring some MRLS in to assist destroying the aircraft. Chain reaction: --------------- When playing on a map where your opponent is harvesting on a large field of blue mature Tiberium, use something that creates an explosion, such as a Disrupter. Once one square has exploded, it will start a chain reaction eventually causing massive damage to the field. Cheap Harvesters: ----------------- Instead of purchasing harvesters from the War Factory, build a Tiberian Refinery, wait until the Harvester is out of the Refinery then sell it. It costs 2000 credits for the Refinery but by selling it you get 1000 credits, a Harvester and five infantry units. Retail price for all these units is 2000 credits so you save 50%. Demolition truck: ----------------- Take a harvester and fill it with blue tiberium, then put it in your enemy's base. I usually put it beside a building and then when they destroy it, it will blow up the building. Artillery Tricks: ----------------- If you are playing a Multiplayer Skirmish, build up about 10-20 artillery. Take them into the enemy base(s), deploy them, and reek havoc on the enemy base. If the enemy is Nod and they have a Stealth Generator, Bring in a Mobile Sensor Array along with the artillery. Civilian vehicles: ------------------ If you have a Mutant Hijacker, you can steal civilian vehicles. Listed below is the amount of infrantry each one can carry. Automobile=4 Pickup=2 RV=4 School Bus=20 Free GDI Repairs on Upgrade-able Buildings: ------------------------------------------- When playing as GDI, you can build structures that can be upgraded, ie. power plants. If a structure that can be upgraded is damaged and you build the add-on for that structure, ie. power turbine, the structure will be fully repaired. The only money that you will lose is the money that you spent on the upgrade. Quick skirmish win: ------------------- Take a group of bombers and destroy your enemy's Construction Yard and War Factory. Then, if you have ammunition remaining, hit their Tiberium Refinery. Hint: ----- Submitted by: Marcel marcel@sulek.seznam.cz When your cyborcs has not got a full energy, order them in tiberium. Their energy wil charge after few minutes. Hint - Health recharge on Tiberium: ----------------------------------- Submitted by:Imtiaz If Your Mutant hijacker, Cyborg,Cyborg commando,Umagon,Ghost Stalker Have Little Life Left, send Them On Any Tiberium Fields, They Get Back life after some time. Hint: ----- Submitted by: Joey While being NOD, send a mutant hijacker into one of GDI's MCV's. (if they have one) and hurry and drive it back to your base. Once you deploy it, you have all the GDI options avaible. Nod mission: Rescuing the captured commander: --------------------------------------------- Go backwards and there should be a path leading southeast. Take the path and you should be greeted by some light infantry and a wall. Also, someone will run into a GDI Orca Bomber. Break through the wall. After that, go through a tunnel and run northeast. There should be a Tiberium field and possibly a Harvester. Do not destroy it, as it will be needed later. After that, keep going and you should see a "ramp" leading upwards. Go up and you should find a small base. Do not damage any buildings. Eliminate all enemy troops and destroy the cargo trucks at the northeast side of the base. You will get three Sergeant Light Infantry and three Engineers. Use the Engineers and capture the Hand Of Nod and single Power Plant. With your remaining engineer, wait until the Harvester docks with the Refinery. When it is unloading, capture the Refinery. You should also have captured the Harvester. You now have a fully operational encampment. Train more Engineers and capture the Silos for more money and Tiberium storage. Also, capture any remaining Power Plants, assuming you did not destroy any buildings. Next, get your Harvester to harvest Tiberium while you train Rocket Soldiers. When you have a big army, you can take on the base, but not head on. Do not go back to where you started. If you move northeast even more, you should encounter a destroyed bridge. Train an Engineer and repair it. There may also be some Light Infantry there as well; defeat them. Cross the bridge with your troops and you should be greeted by a deployed Tick Tank. Destroy it. There should also be some Power Plants. Destroy them and you should be at the main base. Destroy the base and rescue the commander. Have the commander run back to your small base to be safe for awhile. You should have left some defense there. When most of the base is destroyed, run him to where you started. There should be a Harpy there. Have the commander get in to complete the mission. Build anywhere visible: ----------------------- This glitch will enable you to build a building anywhere that is flat and that you can see. First, enter the options screen, go to "Keyboard", go to "Interface", and scroll down until you see "Scroll North, South, East, and West". Assign keys on the number pad to those. Construct a building and place it as you usually would, but do not release the mouse. Next, slide it under the sidebar, making sure no part of it becomes red during the process. With the unplaced building under the sidebar, scroll around to a flat area where you want to locate it, and release the mouse. Note: This requires some practice. To easily get rid of an enemy in skirmish, build wall (one square) and keep building one square. You will notice that you can build them further and further away each time from your base. Do this until they reach an enemy base then build a load of wall around their refinery to cut off their money supply. They will not shoot the wall as it is making no threat to them, but it will keep their harvester locked out. In the end they will just sell their items one by one. Control Nod ore processor and mining vehicle: --------------------------------------------- Note: Try this trick on the "destroy chemical tanks" GDI mission. Position an engineer next to the Nod ore processor and wait for the mining vehicle to dock with the structure before capturing it. You will get control of the building and the vehicle. Mutian breeding ground: ----------------------- Play as Nod and create a Clocking Device near or in some Tiberium Make a large square laser fence inside the cloaked area with the Tiberium. Create a Subterranean APC and Infantry. Use the Subterranean APC to put the men in the fenced area. Take out the Subterranean APC and run the men around in the Tiberium until they change into Mutians. The more men you change, the better. Easy building destruction: -------------------------- Take a Harvester and fill it with blue Tiberium. Put it in your enemy's base. Try placing it next to the Construction Yard, and watch it blow up. Secret Level: ------------- Did you know that there is an extra GDI mission, called 'Mine the power grid'? It is accessed this way... First rescue all 10 mutants in 'Rescue the mutants' mission. Oh yeah, don't forget to get Ghost Stalker and Mutant Hijacker in that mission!! Next choose 'Destroy Chemical Plant' mission. You start in lower left corner of the map. Build you base, blah blah... and when you start to wreak havoc upon Nod base, take some units and proceed to the upper left corner of the map for a small surprise. you will come upon a train station. Also a Ghost Stalker will come to reinforce your forces (hm:)). Anyway, board the train with the Ghost Stalker. Be careful, new mission objective will want you to keep the Ghost alive at all costs!! When you board the train, terminate the Nod base. Mission accomplished. And on to the 'Mine the power grid' mission. Conquering Tip: --------------- Before conquering a base,Build a defencing structure(Let's say Obelisk of Light). Don't Deploy the structure until you conquered your enemy's building. Deploy it next to your just-captured-building.This will give you a stronger post in their base. Put a hand of NOD in your foe's base to supply more engineers to conqure more buildings. Defeating the Nod: ------------------ Build many Juggernauts and surround your base with them. Then, make a Ghoststalker to stand in front of your base. Every time a tank or man walks toward your base, the Juggernauts will weaken it and allow the Ghoststalker to finish it off. Easy Nod victory: ----------------- Build a Subterranean APC and fill it with Engineers. Send it in the enemy's base. As soon as they arrive, send them into important enemy structures (MCV Barracks, War Factory, Refinery, etc.). Once done, sell them quickly and they will be crippled. Ultimate GDI Defense: --------------------- Build three Component Towers with RPGs. Have two SAMs behind them. Have a Mammoth MK.II and a Ghost Stalker in between. Nothing should be able to penetrate. More on your sidebar: --------------------- If you want more structures/units on your sidebar, just change the original resolution of 640x480x16 to a resolution of 640x400x16 and what do you get? more on your sidebar of course. Super Weapon Protection: ------------------------ In skirmishes the AI will use multimissiles or ion cannons loads. The best defence is either to build lots of silos as far from anything valuable as possible and put a few troops and tanks nearby then the computer goes for them instead of your Construction Yard or Temple of Nod or Upgrade Centre which would be annoying. Defender One Hit Kill: ---------------------- Submitted by: Kipling On the final Firestorm Mission, when playing as GDI, Charge up your Ion Cannon then retreat all your units over the bridge to the island at the bottom (with the long bridge leading to it, use a new MCV to build a secondary base there) when the Defender tries to cross the bridge use the ion cannon and the Defender will fall into the water and be destroyed instantly. Kill a Cyborg Commando with one hit: ------------------------------------ Note: This trick requires the ability to build a GDI Firestorm Wall Generator and Firestorm Wall sections. Fortify your base and develop it until you have the option to build a Firestorm Wall and sections. Build Firestorm Walls across any sections where an enemy can get into your base. When a Cyborg Commando is over one of those sections, turn on the Firestorm Wall Generator to kill it easily. Destroying Tiberium veins: -------------------------- If you want to get rid of vein hole monsters, do not use anything with a cannon. Because they are made out of flesh, they need anti-infantry weapons, such as sniper rifles or machine guns. Hidden unit: ------------ This can be done in skirmish and online mode. Create or choose a map with a civilian city in it. Start your game as either the GDI or Nod. Create your base. Make sure you make a War Factory and Hand of Nod (or GDI's Unit Maker). Then, explore the map for the cities until you uncover the whole city. Tell your unit to go behind the building. You will lose sight of it, but it will still be there. If the city is in-between your base and the enemy's, the enemy will most likely travel through it. However, they will not see your hidden attack force. Note: This also works with buildings if you have a re-deployable MCV. Mine Power Grid bonus mission: ------------------------------ Play as the GDI. In the mission where you must destroy the chemical missile base, first select to free the mutants. Then during the "Destroy Chemical Missile Supply" mission, instead of destroying all the chemical tanks, go northwest to find a train. Take the mutants and the Ghost Stalker that you just received by reinforcement with you. Complete the new objective by getting the Ghost Stalker on the train. Then, destroy the rest of the chemical tanks. Protecting Refineries: ---------------------- To protect Refineries, War Factories and Barracks, simply place a wall around the building, except for the entrance where units go in and out. Then build two Compont Towers on the entrance side and place two Vulcan Cannons to protect them against engineers and other infantry. A SAM site and an RPG launcher can be also put on the other sides to give further protection. Cheap Harvesters: ----------------- Instead of purchasing harvesters from the War Factory, build a Tiberian Refinery, wait until the Harvester is out of the Refinery then sell it. It costs 2000 credits for the Refinery but by selling it you get 1000 credits, a Harvester and five infantry units. Retail price for all these units is 2000 credits so you save 50%. Unlockable GDI Mission - Mine the Power Grid: --------------------------------------------- Complete "Rescue the Mutants" to unlock the Ghost Stalker and Mutant Hijacker. Then during "Destroy the Chemical Plant", head to the upper left corner of the map to encounter a Ghost Stalker as a reinforcement trooper. You must keep him alive as you board the train and destroy the Nod Base. Performing this successfully will unlock the "Mine the Power Grid" mission for GDI. Free building repairs: ---------------------- If you have a severely damaged Power Plant in play with no Power Turbines on it, create one then place it on the plant to fully restore its health without needing to repair it! You can similarly restore other structures by applying an upgrade to it, e.g. Vulcan Cannon/RPG/SAM on Component Tower, Ion Cannon Uplink/Seeker Control on Upgrade Center.
