The mission is to be called Stolen Property 8: Race For Space (the other stolen property missions were for earlier C&C games)
the story is something like this
Basicly, some event to be figured out at some time to be figured out has caused the grounding of the US space shuttle fleet. Combined with the collapse of the russian economy which left russia with no way to pay for any soyuz flights, this left the americans with no way to get to the International Space Station. Faced with this, Congress passed the Cosmonaut Act, authorizing the purchase from the russians of the Bakkonur Cosmodrome. some time to be decided later, the ISS faces a new threat. GLA terrorists have captured Bakknour.
Intellagance indicates that the GLA are planning to fire missiles packed with chemical agents at Washington DC & other major population centers. They are also planning to fire missiles at major space targets such as the International Space Station.
Basicly, the mission will combine ideas from the last GLA mision in Generals, James Bond Moonraker (although in Bond, the chemical agents were going to be fired from a space station not a ground launcher), current events (with the columbia tragedy grounding the shuttle fleet untill a fix can be implemented) and also some ideas from the old Covert Operations missions from TD,in that it will require some lateral thinking (simply firing at anything that moves wont work here
The gist of it is that you play USA and you have to stop GLA from launching the missiles (its got more to it than that, I dont want to give away any spoilers)
It will probobly use various of the old unused artwork, its currently slated to use: (assuming I can get all the right bits for them)
the GLA Prison
the GLA Wind Power
and the Mammoth Tank (well assuming I can get all the parts for it that is
It may use more later though, depends on what I can get hold of & what I decide to use
