GAMEPLAY FLOW
=============
In this map the GDF are attacking. They must infiltrate a secret Strogg facility where upgrades to the Goliath are being tested and steal the contruction plans. Because the strogg have a tight hold over this part of Europe the GDF's best hope for a secure extraction is through their naval fleet. GDF HQ has planned this mission for night-time when the weather conditions can facilitate an easier extraction.

The GDF aproach the facility via a railroad tunnel to the south. They must then build a safe spot for deploying a platypus they'll use to escape with the plans. Before they can steal the plans however, they must hack into the security computer deep behind enemy lines to cut off power to the defense turret watching over the warehouse. Once this is done, the GDF have to plant an explosive charge at the warehouse doors. Finally the GDF must take the construction plans to the awaiting platypus and sail away to the awaiting fleet standing off the coast outside of artillery range. Once the mission begins the GDF have 20 minutes to accomplish their goal, because that's the time it takes the Strogg capital ships orbiting Earth to zero on the location and nuke the site from orbit (just to be sure).

Building the hut will remove the Strogg's forward spawn and two icarus vehicles from play. While it's possible to swim with the plans all the way to the fleet, anyone that dares swim so far already deserves to win. ;)

The second objective, hacking the security computer, is supposed to lead to a hard, drawn-out fight. Although there are many ways to reach the building (and three entrances) the spot is located between the Strogg's main spawn and a capturable spawn. The Strogg barricade should blown up to allow the GDF to bring the badger trucks into the fray more easily. GDF should try to liberate the Strogg's spawn to make them spawn back at their base. When playing in Stop-Watch mode the GDF can capture a spawn near the objective.

The third objective should feel like a mad dash with both teams moving parallel to each other from their respective spawns to the warehouse doors. GDF should have the advantage here in which case the Strogg's forward spawn and extra icarus may prove to be an obstacle. When not playing in Stop-Watch mode the Strogg can capture a spawn near the objective.

After the warehouse doors are blown up the GDF must get inside and steal the Cyclops construction plans and take it to the fleet. The strogg will want to either control the two exits out of the underground warehouse or make sure the platypus is out of comission. The GDF should likewise divide their forces between stealing the plans and protecting the platypus.
