Once the Lone Wanderer completes The Guns of Anchorage, General Chase promotes the Wanderer and gives them command of Patterson's strike team. The player can then organize a strike team, who can assist in completing objectives during Paving the Way.Thomas Morgan: "So... you're in charge of Patterson's Suicide Squad, huh?"The Lone Wanderer: "Suicide Squad? Why do they call it that?"Thomas Morgan: "Do I really have to answer that? You aren't going after civilian targets you know... this is the big leagues. Anyway, I'm here to give you a hand with Intelligence and Logistics. Whatever you need, I'm your guy."(Thomas Morgan's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "Yes sir, understood perfectly sir!"Constantine Chase: "At ease, soldier. We're all a bit strung out from the last Commie bombing run on our Field H.Q. We lost some good men including my Strike Team Commander, Colonel Patterson."(Constantine Chase's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "Very clear. Sorry, sir."Constantine Chase: "We're all a bit strung out from the last Commie bombing run on our Field H.Q. We lost some good men including my Strike Team Commander, Colonel Patterson."(Constantine Chase's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "<Allow the General to continue.>"Constantine Chase: "Unfortunately while you were up there climbing mountains, we were down here getting our butts kicked. The Chinese decided to use our Field H.Q. for target practice and damn near blew us all to pieces. We lost some good men including my Strike Team Commander, Colonel Patterson."(Constantine Chase's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "Thank you, sir."Constantine Chase: "No need to thank me. I know a genuine true-blooded soldier when I see one... and that's why I sent you. Unfortunately while you were up there climbing mountains, we were down here getting our butts kicked. The Chinese decided to use our Field H.Q. for target practice and damn near blew us all to pieces. We lost some good men including my Strike Team Commander, Colonel Patterson."(Constantine Chase's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "Anything I can do to assist, sir?"Constantine Chase: "I didn't call you down here for a pep talk and cigars. You've earned yourself a field promotion, soldier. As of this moment you're taking over Patterson's Strike Team. And before you thank me, you better wait and see what your mission entails."(Constantine Chase's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "That's a shame, sir."Constantine Chase: "Damn Red bastards... can't wait to push them all the way back to Beijing. But I didn't call you down here for a pep talk and cigars. You've earned yourself a field promotion, soldier. From this moment on, you're in charge of Patterson's Strike Team."(Constantine Chase's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "They knew the drill when they signed up, sir."Constantine Chase: "Commie sons-of-bitches. It'll be a cold day in hell before I let them cross Canada into the mainland. But enough of that. I called you down here for a reason. You've earned yourself a field promotion, soldier. From this moment on, you're in charge of Patterson's Strike Team."(Constantine Chase's dialogue)
