Installation:
    Unzip the ZIP file then copy the INI and BIN files to your C&C directory,
       and just start up the game, and Start a New Game as GDI. You will
       immediately start the campaign.

Mission Briefings:
   Mission I:
Dr. Moebius has been conducting Tiberium experiments in this area, and
the Brotherhood is attempting to kill him. Nod has already established
themselves and we need you to remove them so that we may get to Moebius
safely. Destroy all Nod presence in the area.

   Mission II:
Dr. Moebius has been conducting his research on Tiberium at a college
in a neutral town and reportedly has made some breakthrough. He now
believes that Tiberium is a synthetic lifeform, and certainly not the
product of natural evolution. The Brotherhood is already in the area
searching for him. Fight your way through Nod forces and get Moebius
out in an Evac chopper which will arrive shortly.

   Mission III:
If Tiberium came from an alien object, wouldn't it suggest that Tiberium
is the product of aliens? Major priority has now been given to obtaining
the original fragments of the Tiberium object. An operative has located
a fragment, but was captured. However, he first left a crate with the
needed information in a small town. Find that crate and bring it to the
chopper that will arrive. You may receive some support from the locals.

   Mission IV:
Now that we know it's location, Moebius is being escorted to the fragment.
Nod SAM sites have forced us to send him by boat rather than chopper.
Alerted, Nod has set up Turrets in wait of Moebius' blue unarmed transport
boat. Use a GDI outpost in the area to clear any Nod Turrets so that his
boat may arrive safely.

   Mission V:
The Tiberium object is nearby and Moebius is continuing his studies at a
research hospital. Speculation has arisen that perhaps Tiberium is a
weapon designed to purge the planet of its life. Nod is just now erecting
a base where Kane is also researching the deadly properties of Tiberium.
Your base isn't equipped to manufacture advanced hardware, so we will
send reinforcements shortly. Destroy all Nod forces to protect Moebius.

Mission Descriptions:
   When you select Start New Game, I found that it would play the first
      GDI briefing no matter what so the first mission is pretty simlilar
      to the first GDI mission. In the next mission, you will have to
      fight your way through Nod forces with a couple APCs and Med. Tanks
      to get Moebius out in a Chinook. In the next mission, you have to
      guide the few through troops you have to a village where a crate is
      located, and from there you need to fight through more Noddies to
      get to a chopper. You get a small outpost base in mission 4 where
      you can build Grenadiers to blow up all the Turrets that are in
      wait of Moebius' arriving boat. In the fifth and final mission of
      this campaign, you have a larger base with an Ion Cannon uplink, and
      will receive some pretty heavy reinforcements to wipe out a Nod base
      so Moebius can freely study the crashed Tiberium object that is on
      the map.
   Note: After you complete each mission, it will not matter which path you
      take as each one has been overridden by one of the above files. Also,
      after you complete the fifth mission of this campaign, you will return
      to the normal game at the sixth mission. It is important that at the
      start of every mission you select the Restate button as, even though
      I had a briefing video for each mission, they didn't really cover
      the mission objectives exactly.
   Download this campaign NOW, it will be worth it.

Mission Tips:
   I tried to make it so that the roads actually lead to places you want
      to go, so it's a good idea to follow them. In the first few levels
      before you can build vehicles, sometimes it's better to lead your
      squads with an expendable infantry rather than risk losing one of
      your only vehicles.

Known Bugs:
    On the last two missions, you start out with Helipads with Orcas on
       them. However, the Orcas do not appear on the radar at first, and you
       cannot select them. To fix this, at the start of the mission, use
       the "Lasso" feature to select the Orca(s) and then order them to move
       somewhere. Then, select them and move them back onto the Helipads.
       From there, they should act as normal.

Thanks to:
    Andrew Griffin and Vladan Blato for the software they both created and
       for being nice enough to answer the editing questions I posted.
    Han Brunger for a useful INI editing manual.
    Jeroen Ritmeijer and Richard Heesbeen for the really cool CCMAP.
