Objective[]
2025:
4.1: The Earth Eaters are spreading across the globe, leaving charred cities in their wake. The damage they've caused is incalculable. We must face the threat that they will soon completely surround us. But they can be defeated before that happens! Combat has already begun in many locations, and we're to follow suit in our own area. Ground troops should attack the turrets and Earth Eaters alike. Godspeed to all!

Strategy[]
4.1[]
Bring a weapon capable of dealing with the Flight Vehicles that will exit the Earth Eater Hangar Modules, as there will be many of them. Also bring a weapon with long range and high damage to deal with the Deroys and to destroy any Earth Eaters that you feel like. This mission is relatively easy if you take control of all the nearby EDF teams because they are mostly able to deal with the Flight Vehicles on their own, only needing the player to intervene to dispatch Deroys. It is not necessary to destroy all Earth Eaters to complete the mission, only to survive until Storm Team receives the order to retreat from Strategic Command Headquarters
