Alexis Alexander

**General Alexis Alexander** is a 4-star general in the US Marine Corps during the War against the GLA.

## Background

As a logistics staffer in the Second Korean War, Alexander attracted the notice of her superiors with her ability to acquire almost anything. Alexander harnessed this ability further to win a scholarship, followed by a long and distinguished career in the Marines. During the earlier stages of the GLA conflict, Alexander developed a tiered system of defenses that did not allow a single strike on her supply columns. Alexander became known for her strong emphasis on resource acquisition and defense in the early stages of a conflict, going on the offensive only when she has overwhelming firepower that was untouchable by the enemy. She is primary antagonist in faction USA against China Infantry General Shin Fai. Followed by General Granger (Secondary antagonist in faction USA).

The 42 year old General Alexander is stationed at Camp Franklin, Belfast, Maine, USA, with the Class Number 07121969-HB.

## Arsenal

### Overview

Alexis Alexander pushes her expertise further, taking command of a military force that caters to a cataclysmic stronghold plan. All acquisition and utilization of resources are put less on the production of offense vehicles, deemed by Alexander as expendable assets that are troublesome to the economy, and more on the development of stronger weapons that will deliver impressive and noteworthy results on a single use against her opponents. With the introduction of groundbreaking defense systems, Alexis can bring her small but special and efficient security forces to seize essential unclaimed supplies on the battlefield for the procurement of intercontinental orbital weapons and the protection of command centers primed to deploy support tactical directives, of which she may also use her talents to preserve such vital structures.

## Generals challenge

*Main article:* Superweapon General Challenge

## Cut content

* True to her title as the super weapon general, Alexander originally had access to two additional super weapon structures replicated from the Chinese and GLA super weapons; the Tomahawk Storm and Cruise Missile Silo. Both models are partially complete and can be placed in-game but do not function properly due to missing INI entries.
* Following one of her cut dialogues, it was hinted that Alexander's tactics also emphasize heavy use of Support Strikes from her General's Powers, this is evident with the Spectre Gunship being available in three levels compared to the standard Spectre Gunship and the Leaflet Drop immediately available for use at Promotion Level 3.

* General Alexander also was supposed to have access to the Crusader Tank, the Paladin Tank and Point-Defense Drones, but they where removed because they probably did not fit her tactics but they can be coded back into the game through INI coding[citation needed]. Her Paladin Tank lacks the upgrade icon for Hellfire Drone.

## Behind the scenes

* Actress Karina Thomas provided the images for General Alexander; her voice actress is Jeannie Elias.
* The weapon shown in her picture is a Beretta 93R model with a flash suppressor, a suitable choice, given her preference for exotic weapons.

## Trivia

* If you try to capture her first Particle Cannon, she will sell it before it is captured unless when Black Lotus captures it. This doesn't happen on the easiest difficulty setting.
* On Easy difficulty, she will use only one Particle Cannon and her countdown timer on Particle Cannon is set to 30 minutes.
