El Presidente

E2M5 El Presidente is the fifth and ultimate mission of the First American Campaign in Reds Over World; it takes place in Cuba.
==Briefing==
With our borders being still defended and a large portion of US Army aiding our allies in Europe, there is only one operation left for special operatives like you. We have forgotten about the one Red state that is too close for comfort - Cuba.
It's time for the Cuba to fall. Before the South American Allied armies will begin their landing and invasion, you will be tasked with the most important job - the assassination of Fidel Castro.
The CIA just found out that he's in a secret compound somewhere deep in the Cuban jungle. We'll paradrop you in using a civilian plane, and with your skills, we are certain that this time our assasination attempt won't be a failure.
==Plot==
After securing it's borders and sending aid for retaking Europe, The United States was free to deal with their greatest issue since a long time - Cuba, the communist state that was a thorn in their side for way too long. The US government decided that it is time for the ultimate assassination attempt on it's communist dictator, Fidel Castro. Martin MacDonald was thus paradropped into Cuba using a civilian plane, close to the dictator's secret private bunker.
Cuban soldiers were everywhere, and so were their Flame Turrets, but Martin took care of all of them; soon enough he cleared a local Cuban military base and found himself facing Castro's private bunker it was guarding. The bunker was filled with more Cuban soldiers, and guarded by a Red Juggernaut. He saw the Cuban dictator ride downstairs using an elevator, and had to find some other way down - not knowing what to do, he jumped into the door used for dumping trash.
He found himself on a conveyor belt leading straight into a furnace, he jumped off it and proceeded to clean the bunker's second level; it was crawling with even more soldiers, not to mention he had to deal with two of Castro's chemists - Walter Blanco and Juan Rosa. He couldn't go forward however, as his path was blocked by broken pipes spraying dangerous hot steam. Fortunately, the American operative found a way to turn it off.
Before the entrance to Castro's private headquaters, he had to fight a T-1000 Vezdekhod, and after some time, he found himself face-to-face with the Cuban dictator, who at last ran out of places to hide.Even tho he was armed with experimental weaponry and Red Mercury grenades developed by Walter Blanco, he was not strong enough, and finally was killed by Martin in a lenghty gunfight. Martin, encouraged by his communications officer Eva then promptly proceeded to check out his cigar collection. After so many humiliating attempts, America finally assassinated Castro. The invasion of Cuba could now commence.
==Walkthrough==
There is a Pancor Jackhammer near the right building; it is a good idea to pick it up; there is also a Portable First Aid Kit in the right building's toilet. Once you grab both, go to the left building and press the switch. Now keep going forward until you reach a Cuban army base; climb onto it's roof via the cliff on the right, and jump inside it's vent. Once inside, scavenge the base for items, and find the Yellow Keycard on it's top floor, accessible via a staircase.
Use the Yellow Key to open the previously locked door, then go left into the gateway control room, and open the gates leading to Fidel Castro's private bunker; watch out for the large amount of Flame Turrets guarding it. Once inside, take the elevator and keep going forward until you reach a trash dumping room, jump into the hole.
Go into the chemical lab area, and kill Walter and Juan to grab the Blue Keycard. Use it on the previously locked door, and destroy the fire extinguisher in the room behind it; now you must find a switch that'll open up the way to the other switch that turns off the hot steam stream - it can be easily found, as the area is small and you should have no issue finding it, other than making sure to crouch in the crusher section. Once you find the switch that turns off the hot steam, go back and prepare for a battle with the Vezdekhod - there is a RPG-7 nearby, so grab it.
After the Vezdekhod is destroyed, take the elevator to Castro's private headquaters. It is a good idea to go left first, as after two rooms you will find a room full of useful items. Then go right, and eventually, you will find a Bronze Key, guarded by Attack Dogs; use it to open the previously locked door that'll open the doors to Castro's room. Make sure to stack up on ammo before fighting Castro, as he has a massive amount of health. His attacks are hard to dodge - avoid them by hiding in the two corridoors in between his bedroom and dining room. Once you kill him, the mission is over.
==Secrets==
*In the stairway leading to the elevator using which Castro is escaping, there is a visible ident in the wall - behind it, there is a Mega Paka.
*In the water-processing plant, there is a pathway leading to a lot of Health Hypos.
==Easter Eggs==
*Walter and Juan are based on characters Walter White and Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad, a TV show the author was watching while developing Reds Over World.
==Trivia==
*It was the first map in Reds Over World to ever be finished, in 2021.
