Briefing:
Sami has a hard row to hoe in the Green Earth maps, and this
capture map is one of the difficult ones. Thankfully, her infantry
capture abilities can easily shrug off Drake's CO power, and he will
only take enough damage to do it once. The key to winning this map
quickly is to land a mech on the southwest shore of Drake's side of the
island, capturing the city by the shore. This way, you don't have to
get into a long and protracted battle at the midway point between the
two territories, and can focus on capturing the cities on your side.
The map tends to get messy later on in the level, since Drake's
units will usually never behave the same way twice. To alleviate this,
hide your units in the forest and reefs and use APCs and landers.
Thankfully there isn't much in the way of land force coming into your
base, so you can just fend off whatever comes in with your initial
ground forces. If you're quick about it, you can finish the map in 7
days, but make sure to destroy at least three units in one day for the
power score. The weather is a menace in this level, so reload if it
snows.
Walkthrough:
Day one, dive your two subs south, move your battleship south,
and move your cruiser five south one west. Load an infantry and your
west mech into the north lander, and load the remaining infantry into
your APC and load the APC and your mid tank into the lander. Move your
north lander west of the mountain and drop the infantry east, mech
south, and move your remaining lander north of that lander and drop the
APC north, mid tank east. Move your remaining mech south.
Day two, move your west sub south and your remaining sub north of
that sub. Move your cruiser four south, two west, and your battleship
two west, three south. Move your two landers southwest and north of
your mech on the base island, and load the mech into the south lander
and rocket launcher and tank into the north lander. Move your APC four
east and drop the infantry north, move your remaining mech south and
begin capturing the city, and begin capturing the factory with your
infantry. Move your mid tank into the forest west of the factory (if
its raining, move one east into the forest, then move into the forest
west of the factory on day three).
Day three, attack the sub with your cruiser from the north, and
the cruiser with your battleship. Move your subs south and southeast
of the enemy cruiser (do not attack it!), and your south lander north
of your battleship. Finish capturing the factory and city, and move
your remaining infantry northeast to capture the city. Move your APC
south, and move your north lander three south three east and drop the
tank north and rocket launcher east into the forest.
Day four, attack the sub with your cruiser from the south, and
the cruiser with your damaged sub from the north. Move your healthy
sub east, and move your lander southeast to the shore, dropping the
mech south. Attack the tank with your rocket launcher and mid tank
from the north. Move your mech northeast, finish capturing the city,
and begin capturing the remaining factory. Create an infantry.
Day five, attack the battleship with your 9HP sub, and begin
capturing the city by Drake's southwest shore. Finish capturing the
factory, and begin capturing the three neutral cities (not the one that
your APC is on). Create an infantry.
Day six, finish capturing all four cities, move your APC one west
and begin capturing the remaining city and sea port.
Day seven, finish capturing.
