Technique Limit: 3-4
Briefing:
You've got to capture cities again, but this time you've got Sami,
the infantry specialist. She hasn't been very useful in the past few
levels, but here's a chance for you to see what she's good at. Sonja
only has a few units guarding the north and south islands, so it's ripe
for your units to stomp over. Remember that Sami can capture cities
in two turns even if her infantry and mechs are injured, since she has
a 50% faster property capture rate. With some fast moves, Sami can
take this map down in five days.
On the north island, Sonja has a tank and an artillery unit in
the forest two northwest of the factory. On the south island, Sonja
will be moving a tank in to attack you with. At sea, she has a sub, a
cruiser, and a battleship stationary in the northeast corner of the
waters that can reach most of the north island in attack range. Land a
mid tank and infantry on the south island to deal with the tank and
capture the cities, and land an infantry and APC the north island.
Damage the north island tank with your rocket launcher, and move your
APC up to expose the artillery and blast it with your battleship.
After that, make it your top priority to attack the battleship with
your sub, and to eliminate the artillery with your battleship. Keep
capturing the cities with your troops. Remember to drop off infantry
on the northwest shore of the north island; most players fail to notice
that it's even there.
To get the power score, you must destroy three units in one day,
which isn't very easy on this map. Try to keep an injured unit around
for one day, if it means you can destroy all three on the next day.
Walkthrough:
This guide uses Sami
Day one, load your mid tank and mech into the south lander, load
your remaining mech into the APC and move the APC and an infantry into
the north lander. Move your south lander to the west part of the south
island shore, dropping your mid tank east and your mech south, and move
your north lander to the west part of the north island shore and drop
the APC north, infantry east. Move your rocket launcher one east, your
battleship south of your north island infantry, your cruiser southeast
into the reef, and dive your sub north of your cruiser. Create two
infantry. In order for you to finish the map in 5 days, the tank must
damage your APC to 4 or 5HP, not 3HP. Save before finishing the day
and keep retrying until you get it.
Day two, move your APC north of the forest that's northwest of
the factory, and drop the mech east, then attack the artillery with
your battleship. Attack the tank with your rocket launcher. Move your
cruiser east of your battleship, and your sub one south four east.
Move your north island infantry north and begin capturing the city,
begin capturing the sea port with your south island mech, move your
landers to the south and northwest of your rocket launcher, load the
south lander with two infantry, move your remaining infantry north, and
create an infantry in the east factory.
Day three, attack the artillery with your battleship, and the
tank with your mid tank from the west. Move your sub onto the neutral
sea port and your APC onto the factory. Finish capturing the sea port
and cities, move your north island mech south and begin capturing the
city, load your two infantry into your north lander then move your
north lander to the northwest shore of the north island, dropping the
infantry into the two forests, and move your south lander to the east
part of the north island shore, dropping the two infantry off.
Day four, attack the north tank with your battleship, the sub
with your cruiser, and the tank with your mid tank from the north.
Attack the battleship with your sub from the north, and move your
lander west of the battleship. Begin capturing the properties, using
the damaged infantry to capture the north island factory and healthy
infantry to capture the north island sea port.
Day five, finish capturing.
