It becomes very easy after you have the Juggernauts. I've captured them and defended them with 75 Venoms...And guess what, I won.

Anybody knows how to beat Cologne (GDI Campaign). Their air defences are so fucking bad.

Can you outline what you have to do in this mission and where/how you start? My memory isn't good enough to remember every mission only from the name

It's the last mission in North Europe. You begin with a base that has some Guardian Cannons and AA defences (forgot there name). But after less then 2 minutes they are sending in Devastator Warships (and I tought Planetary Assault Carriers but I'm not sure). They also send some Tripods with some stupid pointless and useless infantry and Seekers / Devourers.

Sorry I meant Berne, it's not Cologne but Berne.

EDIT: Double post. Sorry.

Hmm yeah, Berne makes more sense. And you don't have to apologize for double posts... sometimes they're just needed.

Anyway, if I remember correctly, I've just built up my base fast, using many refineries and harvesters (and a crane of course). Then I built a weapons factory and tech center to pump out mammoths against ground attacks and an airfield to build firehawks against their airforce. Additionally I placed some Sonic turrets and AA batteries at the front side of my base.
A bit later I got fed up with defending and sent out a team of mammoths to roll over his first base (north-west of the center of the map) and then attacked his main base. They were able to deal with most production structures and defenses and could hold out until the second team of mammoths arrived.

In short: defend as good as you can in the first part, then go and destroy his two small bases soon so you can build up your army in peace and destroy the main base.

Hope it helps.
