lol I just got Halo Wars, and seriously no joke I too ran out of time on that same mission
only I didn't quit (feeling rather amused hearing "We lost contact!!!"), and ironically instead I took the tip from Yahtzee and built twice as many tanks the second try and well...success =)
no really, on normal difficulty, I found that every time I had a problem it was because of one thing: I didn't build enough tanks
ergo the key to success: BUILD MORE TANKS
