The game is set in an alternate 1989 in which the Soviet Politburo elects to take military action to preserve the crumbling Soviet Union, rather than see it fall apart. Their plan was to blackmail Western Europe to get the needed aid, but, failing to achieve this diplomatically, the Soviet Union invades Western Europe.The battleship USS Missouri aids the player's Battalion during the Battle for Pine Valley.
The player assumes the role of First Lieutenant Parker, a United States Army officer under the command of Colonel Sawyer. At the time of his introduction Parker was on leave in Seattle when a camouflaged Soviet amphibious assault force launches a surprise invasion of the city. A combination of regular U.S. Army and National Guard soldiers engage the invading Soviet forces in an effort to buy time for the local civilians to evacuate before retreating south toward Pine Valley, Washington. Here, elements of the 5th Battalion under the command of Colonel Sawyer make a stand, and with the aid of the battleship Missouri ultimately force the Soviets to halt their invasion and tighten their defensive lines. During this brief respite Sawyer's battalion is reinforced by Oregon National Guardsmen under the command of Colonel Wilkins.
After a month of consolidation, the Soviet invaders renew their expansion, heading east into the Cascade Mountains towards Fort Teller in order to disable the United States' Strategic Defense Initiative. While the project was a bluff, the threat of its existence has thus far kept the Soviet Union from launching a nuclear strike, and thus the defense of the facility takes top priority. Sawyer and Wilkins engage in a series of delaying battles while en route to the Fort, with Sawyer electing to make a stand in Cascade Falls, Washington. At first the stand appears to work, but when overwhelming Soviet forces enter the area the Americans are forced to resort to nuclear weaponry to stop the Soviets, leaving a group of volunteers lead by the disgraced Captain Bannon behind to pin down the Soviet ground troops while a tactical nuclear missile is fired at the town; upon its arrival and detonation the nuke annihilates the town, the Soviet invaders, and Bannon's volunteers. Before the missile goes off, Bannon apologizes to Sawyer for his conduct; Sawyer says there is no need for an apology and that he was humbled to have served with him.
The game then flashes back to the outbreak of the war, in the process revealing that diplomats from both sides had labored for a month to prevent the outbreak of the war and had ultimately failed. The game then shows Parker's service in France, in the Soviet Union, where he and the battalion are able to destroy several Soviet submarines tied up at Murmansk, and fighting off a limited invasion of New York City by Soviet Spetsnaz, centered around Liberty Island, Ellis Island and Governors Island. In the latter scenario, the Soviets intend to store chemical weapons inside the Statue of Liberty and release them over Manhattan. Sawyer is forced to call in an air strike that would certainly annihilate the Statue, but thanks to Parker's effective assault Liberty Island is retaken and the strike is called off, saving the icon from destruction by American forces.
After the flashback, the game returns to the sequence of events after the destruction of Cascade Falls. As the scattered remnants of the U.S. Army defenders from Cascade Falls attempt to regroup and reorganize the United States receives word that the People's Republic of China has entered the war on the Soviet side. Chinese troops occupy Mongolia and launch attacks into Taiwan, South Korea and India; additionally, the People's Liberation Army Navy sends an invasion fleet to reinforce the Soviet beachhead in Seattle. After mulling over the available options the President orders the surviving U.S. Army units from the attack on Cascade Falls to attack Seattle, and as a back up plan orders a nuclear strike against Seattle should the attempt to recapture the city fail. Prior to liberating Seattle, Parker and the battalion are first ordered to retake several islands in Puget Sound that have captured anti-ship missile launchers that they can use, should the Chinese get into the Sound before they try to recapture the city. In the final series of missions Parker's commander, desperate to avoid "...another Cascade Falls" on a much bigger scale, orders his forces into a desperate attack aimed at breaking through the Soviet lines to reach Seattle and destroy the heavily fortified Soviet headquarters before the Chinese land. The Americans manage to retake Seattle from the Soviets before the Chinese fleet arrives, thus delivering a decisive blow to the Chinese as they lack the material to launch an amphibious assault. Consequently, the Chinese fleet turns back to China.
The game concludes with a statement that Parker may be called upon to fight later on.
