Cairo is the eighth mission in the GDI campaign of Tiberium Wars. InOps confirmed that the silo which launched the missile that destroyed the Philadelphia was connected to a Nod nuclear launch facility in northern Cairo, where Nod's entire nuclear arsenal was consolidated. Since Nod was now on the run with nothing left to lose, they may launch their entire nuclear stockpile at once. To prevent Move your forces to the West as there are a few Nod units you need to kill first. Next, move South until you reach the river then cross to the East. Move to the end of the map and follow the road South to find the town. There are 2 tanks located to the South-East of the map so be careful of them. Operation Stiletto is one of two Nod missions that become available after completing Northern Italy, along with Italian Hills. GDI was advancing through the Italian Red Zone faster than Nod anticipated, with one large force routing alien forces on the east bank of Tiber river. Since GDI forces would soon threaten the alien towers, Kane ordered the Nod Commander to slow down GDI's advance by Attack the base around the other side of the ridge, take out the defense hub and the hand of nod. Bring your apc up and unload an engineer. Capture the reinforcement bay. At this point, put your troops around the mouth of the ridge for defense and put the battle base behind them to heal them. Fight off any assault. QL9J.
