Walkthrough

Start building up your base all the way, and start cranking out artillery tank units as soon as you can. You should be able to support eight units of them as well as three units of rocket trucks while still staying supplied. While you're building those, you'll have to help your southern ally defend the town by the river to the west. Germans will pour over the river, and if you're not there to help, they'll likely roll right over your ally before you have the chance to do much about it.
Once you have all of your artillery tanks and rocket trucks, form them into two groups and cross the river to take the town. It'll be crawling with Germans, so be prepared for some fast hit and run tactics. Once you have the city, leave one group behind to protect it, then take the other group south to deal with the scattered German defenses. Once you've taken them down and healed your units, head to the south-east part of the map and destroy the base down there.
Now's where things can get ugly. If your northern ally has managed to beat the Germans back away from his base and down the map towards Berlin, you're in good shape. If not, you'll have to go help him; you can't afford any Germans sneaking past him while you're executing your next move.
That move, of course, being the complete relocation of your base. Undeploy every single structure and send them down to the southern part of the mountains between the open fields to the east and Berlin to the west. Deploy them again on the eastern side of the mountains, and have both of your armored teams down there to block the mountain passage in case something comes through.
Once you've redeployed, start edging your way west. Deploy oil depots or ammo depots closer and closer to South Berlin, and keep moving your units closer. There will be an insane amount of Germans, so if you can't keep a supply ring around your units in the city, you won't have a chance. Your allies should be helping you out quite a bit, so just keep picking away at the hoards of Germans until South Berlin is clear.
Now you can either go around the mountains and approach North Berlin from above or you can just cross the river to the north. Either way, head in there and trash the place. As soon as you can take control of the city, the mission is over.
