CS Gameicon The following is based on the missions of Counterstrike and might contradict canon.

The last of the Soviet's Siberian forces have wandered out onto the ice waters, where they've established a base. Finish off their fortifications so our Allied forces will have no trouble moving through this area on their way to Moscow.

The mission is complete when all Soviet forces and structures are destroyed.
- Mission briefing

Wasteland is the final Allied mission in Counterstrike[1], and the final Siberian mission in Retaliation.

Walkthrough[]

You start at the top left corner of the map with an MCV and some vehicles. Additionally another MCV and more units will arrive there. This is the only mission where you have access to 2 MCVs at your disposal. It is advisable to move out to the east where there is abundance of ore then you can build your base. There is also some barrels and an oil drill that can be destroyed outside the ore field for a money crate. Set up a strong economy with a two or three refineries near the large ore and gem fields then continue building your base as you see fit.

One of your construction yards will face some harassment from paratroopers and air threats from time to time so having pillboxes and some rocket soldiers and tanks to defend against them is advisable. Moreover the Soviets are on the south of the map and will send some ground forces against the base and may flank from the east part of the ore field. With a strong economy established, the easiest method to the mission is to build 2 war factories and mass light or medium tanks to attack the soviets starting from either the southwest or southeast side and sweeping eastwards or westwards across the map. Destroying their 2 construction yards, their production facilities and their refineries will eventually force the Soviets to sell what is left of their base. The mission ends when all Soviet units and structures are destroyed.
