Briefing
Dennis: Tango 1 to Tango 6. The enemy is trying to escape. Their machines are damaged. But, don't slack off. Their platoon is skilled in urban combat and they use teamwork. The possibility of breakdown increases with each attack. Tango 8 and 14 are currently heading your way as backup. Note their points of arrival. Subdue the enemy platoon. Exercise great caution.

Battle
Walter: They outnumber us, but they've taken damage. Backup is enroute. The enemy seems to be on their own. Until then, we need to hold them off.

(When one of Action is taken)

Walter: A Mechanic is part of our backup. Entry points are here. Assume battle formations!

(Turn 3)

Randy O'Neill: Is everyone okay!?

Walter: Randy, you're late!

Randy: Sorry! I had issues finding my gear. This repair BP is so huge! Is anyone's unit damaged?

(When Walter attacks Glen)

Glen: Oh...you want to play? You're all pumped up eh, Walter? Not bad for a newbie! Don't be careless or you'll die!

(If Glen was defeated before player defeating all enemy in the area)

Glen: Shit! This is over already? What a shame. I wanted to play with you some more... ............ Jul 4 to all survivors... We can't fight anymore. Everyone, fall back! Take it easy from here. We've done enough not to be court-martialed for this. There's no need to risk our lives. Survival is crucial. Good job, men. Nice working with you guys. See you back home! ...over. ............ Phew, it's over.

(If Glen was defeated after player defeating all enemy in the area)
