The objective is fairly simple, there are 3 or more sections to each map, and the Rebel team must achieve a particular target as described by the commentary before the next area is unlocked, until eventually destroying the final target at the end of the map. Areas remain unlocked once opened, and the spawn points will move on. Combine forces are only equipped with the AR2, stunstick, smoke grenades and SLAMs as they have the easiest task.
