"The Desert Fox, Erwin Rommel, has rolled through North Africa leading his Afrika Corps, forcing the British army in Egypt to their last defensive line before Cairo and the vital Suez canal.

Walkthrough
-----------
 
This mission's easy, so there's no need to be concerned about time. Start by deploying both trucks you start with, then build and deploy an Armor Division HQ. Build and deploy a Motor Pool Truck, then build three Medium Tank regiments from your Armor Division HQ. Finally, build and deploy an Ammo Depot Truck.
 
Gather your three Medium Tank regiments and your Mechanized unit, then head for the Italian oil refinery south-west of your base. Destroy everything near it to take control of it, then retreat back into your green sphere of control to regenerate your units and their health.
 
Next, head west along the northern beach and destroy all five guns along the shore. Kill them carefully, one at a time, and retreat to your supply zone if you take too much damage. Some Australian computer-controlled allies will land on the beach eventually. They'll start building their own base, then rush the German base suicidally.
 
Make sure all of your units are fully healed, then approach the German base from the north-east. There are mines, but the Australians tend to take care of a lot of them. Even if they don't, the damage caused by them isn't enough to worry about, as long as you're somewhat careful with where you drive your vehicles.
 
Your target is the German Corps HQ building, which shouldn't be hard to destroy even if you completely ignore the defenses in the area. If you choose to destroy the defenses, you can always retreat back to a supply zone to minimize the damage you take. Either way, once the HQ building is destroyed, you will win the mission.
