I've updated my previous missions 'Angry Machines' to 1.87. There are only a couple of changes which will be evident if you played the previous version.
"The Giant has woken from its slumber General...
A few days ago, the United States left its self imposed isolation to join with the ECA in the war against Russia.
Worryingly, the US has decided to establish their main foot hold south of Vladivostok. This means the war is happening right on our doorstep and threatens our own security. A few hours ago, a force of American experimental drones went haywire and attacked key Chinese border towns and bases. The most critical base contains a Nuclear Silo which is aimed towards Russia. We cannot allow this base to fall, as it prevents a Russian invasion without dire consequences. If we feel that our base is close to collapse, we will have no choice but to nuke the main drone base. No matter what the cost.
We are still neutral in this conflict, so we cannot allow Chinese units to destroy the berserk drones in Russia. Instead, use Black Lotus to capture a drone outpost so you eliminate the remaining American drones.
Do this quickly General. We cannot risk a war with the United States at this critical time, and they are sure to investigate any attacks on their expensive technology."
Updated mission objectives:
1. Capture the Outpost's Drone Control Centre.
2. Destroy all drone structures.
3. Protect the Chinese Command Centre.
Should the Nuclear Missile launch:
4.Destroy the US Command Centre and last Drone Control Centre. (Thanks for the idea Skitt)
Hints:
Although the Russians are not on your side, they are more interested in protecting their homeland from the drones rather than fighting you, so perhaps it is best to leave them alone.
It may be possible to take out the drones before they heavily damage the Chinese base, but it will be very difficult.
