After securing the [[Dune Sea]], the [[Alliance of Nations]] traveled south to the [[Coral Atolls]] island chain to aid the [[Solar Empire]] against the Xylvanian invasion force. Once the Xylvanians are forced to retreat from the islands, the Solar Empire becomes the third country to join the Alliance of Nations against the fleeing Xylvanians. | After securing the [[Dune Sea]], the [[Alliance of Nations]] traveled south to the [[Coral Atolls]] island chain to aid the [[Solar Empire]] against the Xylvanian invasion force.

The Frontier forces fight their way to the [[Crater of the Sun]], cutting a swathe through both Xylvanian and [[Iron Legion|Legion]] forces. Liberated [[Solar Empire|Solar]] Fighters target the Legion's [[Gunship]]s, eliminating airborne threats to the Frontier troops. The Allies soon find reach the [[Cenotaph]], the source of the Legion's supernatural strength and regenerative powers, and destroy it.

In the final battle of the war, the Frontier-Tundran alliance arrives at the [[Vladstag]] to lay siege to [[Kaiser Vlad]]'s ancestral homeland. After fighting through three layers of defences and destroying two of Vlad's [[Battlestation]]s, the [[Alliance of Nations]] is finally able to capture the massive building. [[Marshal Nova]] takes [[Kommandant Ubel]] into custody, and imprisons him in a Tundran gulag; however, [[Kaiser Vlad]] escapes by helicopter. | In the final battle of the war, the [[Western Frontier|Frontier]]-[[Tundran Territories|Tundran]] alliance arrives at the [[Vladstag]] to lay siege to [[Kaiser Vlad]]'s ancestral homeland.

Xylvania tries to avoid drawing unwanted attention in the earliest days of the war, instead spreading rumors and misinformation to the other nations. In doing so, [[Kaiser Vlad]] is able to bait the other nations into a meaningless war while he and his Xylvanian troops search feverishly for the [[Staff of Qa-Len]], which activated the Solar satellite and destroyed the [[Iron Legion]] centuries ago. | Xylvania tries to avoid drawing unwanted attention in the earliest days of the war, instead spreading rumors and misinformation to the other nations.

In the first campaign, the [[Anglo Isles]] launch an attack against the [[Solar Empire]] based on faulty intelligence stating that the Empire had some sort of superweapon. However, since [[Empress Qa-Len]] disposed of the staff after the [[Lightning Wars]], the [[Solar Empire]] no longer had control of the ancient weapon. Believing that if the Empire had a superweapon, then they could not activate it, the [[Anglo Isles]] strike force retreated. [[Solar Empire|Solar]] [[Admiral A-Qira]] counterattacks, soon invading the Anglo Isles in a war of retribution. [[Admiral A-Qira|The Solar admiral]] also sends word to [[Marshal Nova]] of the Tundran Territories, calling for an alliance against the Anglos. [[Admiral A-Qira]] eventually realizes that the Anglos were given false intel, but [[Kaiser Vlad]] appears on A-Qira's Battleship, and fatally poisons the admiral with a drink. | In the first campaign, the [[Anglo Isles]] launch an attack against the [[Solar Empire]] based on faulty intelligence stating that the Empire had some sort of superweapon.

The Xylvanian forces are not seen again until the fifth campaign, when the Tundran Territories fight to drive the Xylvanians out of the Tundran homeland. [[Kaiser Vlad]] has been searching for the [[Staff of Qa-Len]] with a massive seismic detection platform in Tundra's northern wastes, and it seems that Vlad has discovered its location, in a chasm in Tundra's far north. Kaiser Vlad and [[Kommandant Ubel]] retreat to the Mining Spider, a hideous machine that has been drilling down to reach the ancient Solar staff below. The Tundran forces fight on, destroying two Xylvanian [[Battlestation]]s before liberating [[Western Frontier|Frontier]] and [[Solar Empire|Solar]] POWs, uniting the [[Alliance of Nations]] once again. As the Allied Nations approach the Mining Spider, [[Commander Pierce]] and his wing of [[Anglo Isles|Anglo]] Fighters provide defence from the Xylvanian Bombers and Gunships. Tundra's Battlestation eventually destroys the Spider, but rather than face justice, [[Kaiser Vlad]] and [[Kommandant Ubel]] are forced to descend into the chasm below, blocked by fallen boulders and debris. The Kaiser lights a match, declaring that "the torch of destiny still burns brightly for Xylvania". As he orders Ubel to dig through the rubble, the flame goes out. | The Xylvanian forces are not seen again until the fifth campaign, when the [[Tundran Territories]] fight to drive the Xylvanians out of the Tundran homeland.
