Background
With the GLA leadership still in disarray, GLA splinter factions fought each other for power and control of the organization. One of those splinter groups was headed by Prince Kassad, a General who specialized in stealth and camouflage. His technologies were vital to the future of the Global Liberation Army, but Kassad is unwilling to share them with his fellow "freedom fighters". GLA troops loyal to Deathstrike, then had no choice, but to forcibly acquire them and eliminate Kassad.
The Battle
| “ | I am most certain. I've seeing nothing, but dust for hours now. Returning to base, after this. - Loyalist Rocket Buggy, seeing nothing but dust for hours due to Kassad's movements. | ” |
Before the Battle
Whilst a GLA Commander entered Cairo near the Pyramids and the Sphinx, a loyalist Rocket Buggy patrolled the surrounding area "seeing nothing but dust for hours" despite reports of troop movements linked to Prince Kassad. Before returning to base however, the buggy was ambushed and destroyed by a hidden Scorpion tank. The GLA Commander was then given a short demonstration of the tactical benefits of Kassad's technologies; the GPS Scrambler and Sneak Attack abilities were put to use by Kassad against a small American garrison at a nearby oil rig.
Accessing More Resources
Knowing that Kassad would utilize his own stealth arsenal against him, the GLA Commander surrounded his base with Radar Vans and Demo Traps to detect and surprise the enemy. This worked, when three of Kassad's Rebels were detected and later killed by one of the demo traps. However, he built up his defenses since it would only be a matter of time before Kassad can gather a large force to batter through the defensive line.
Objective #1 - GPS Scrambler
The first Command Center housed the GPS Scrambler technology, but this was defended by a camouflaged Arms Dealer and Barracks that were detected by the radar scans. To eliminate any stealth units, the Commander brought his Radar van along and sent his forces to the town. After a minor skirmish at the town, the Commander quickly captured the Command Center and seized the GPS Scrambler. Along the way, he sent a Rebel to capture a Black Market located just outside the city to gain more funds and upgrade his forces.
Objective #2 - Sneak Attack
The second Command Center housed the Sneak Attack technology located across the river with defenses similar to the first Command Center. Making worthwhile use of the radar scans and the newly-acquired GPS Scambler on his army, the Commander sneaked his army across the river and lauched a surprise frontal assault on the base. It was not before that the Commander seized the second Command Center, and with it the Sneak Attack technology.
Objective #3 - Eliminate Prince Kassad
With both the Scrambler and the Sneak Attack technologies at the hands of the GLA loyalists, the last thing to do was to kill Prince Kassad. Unfortunately, all access points to Kassad's main HQ were blocked or destroyed by Kassad and his Command Center was littered with his camoflauged base defenses.
Using the radar scan again, the Commander used his Scud Launchers and destroyed every single Stinger Site and unit he could detect, while his best forces entered one of their own Tunnel Networks. The Commander, then positioned the Sneak Attack over the cliffs and his forces wreaked havoc everywhere surrounding Kassad's HQ. This time, the Commander did not want to capture Kassad's HQ and instead destroyed it. Prince Kassad is presumed to be buried among the wreckage.
Aftermath
With the main splinter group destroyed and its leader eliminated, the GLA was united once more under Deathstrike's leadership and prepared to make their comeback against the Americans in the Mediterranean Sea.
