Operation: Dark Night
Now that the situation has stabilized itself somewhat in the continental United States, its time to send out calls for help, especially for our old allies in Europe. Unfortunately for us, the Soviets have a number of forward nuclear silos that are threatening to attack any targets of opportunity from Spain to Germany! If we are ever to balance the scales of power, we will need to send in a team of infiltrators to knock out those nuclear weapons for good.
In the cutscene and loading screen, the location appears to be given somewhere on the Polish/Belorussian border, and Poland already being Allied!
Location:Polish/Belorussian Border.
Objective: Neutralize the Soviet nuclear missiles in the area.
Briefing: European forces still refuse to fight with us, fearing a Soviet nuclear counterattack. We have discovered the location of their medium-range missiles in Poland. Special agent Tanya has secretly crossed the Polish border. You will direct her to destroy the Soviet Nuclear Missiles.
Author's note: The first baseless mission? Woah. A few one, with some goodies strewn about. If you ever get the tank, you can bypass the 2nd base by using the tank to just... destroy the walls.

Spy
RANGE: N/A
ARMOR: Flak
WEAPON: None
COST: 1000
The Spy is a stealth unit used by the Allied forces to gain an advantage over their foes. Rather than attacking enemy units, the Spy targets an enemy and changes his appearance to that of the enemy unit. This allows him to sneak past enemies and into enemy structures, providing substantial benefits. The Spy’s function inside the enemy structure depends on which building he enters. Attack Dogs are never fooled by the Spy’s disguise, so watch out for them.
Author's Note: An interesting update to the spy, with a new method of displaying how the spy disguises himself in accordance to the increased number of infantry units available.
Aftermath:
Faster than Par Time: "Soviet commanders are still analyzing your attack, trying to discover the secrets of your advanced covert strategies."
Slower than Par Time: "The missiles have been destroyed. Other Soviet missiles have been moved deep inside the USSR."
