MAIN OBJECTIVES:
----------------
1) Breach the walls and occupy the supply depot inside the Fort.
Use your field gun to blow a hole in the wall, then send your forces into
the fort to take the supply depot. Careful though - there're a lot of
mortar units in there that'll make short work of your units if you're not
careful.
This is worth 150 prestige points.
--------------------
OPTIONAL OBJECTIVES:
--------------------
1) Surround the Fort and hold the strategic locations.
There're three blue objective symbols outside the fort, and parking a unit
on the indicated spot will let you "take control" of the spot. Park a unit
on all three spots at once to accomplish this optional objective, which
will also earn you an ammo truck.
This is worth 50 prestige points.
2) Von Grobel's panzer repaired.
When you blow the hole in the fort, Hans von Grobel's tank unit - or what's
left of it, anyway - will appear in the north-east. His tank is damaged,
so use your repair truck to fix it, which will complete this optional
objective.
This is worth 25 prestige points.
------------------
SECRET OBJECTIVES:
------------------
1) Detect the secret entrance.
This should be the first thing you do, since failing to do it will result
in an endless supply of enemy infantry forces being dumped into the area.
Move your infantry all the way up to the oasis in the north-west corner of
the map, then kill any nearby enemies to complete the objective.
This is worth 100 prestige points.
-------------------
VICTORY CONDITIONS:
-------------------
1) Dario DeAngelis must survive.
If he dies, you fail. He doesn't start in a vehicle, so be especially
careful with him during this mission. Stick him in one of Grobel's panzers
when they show up.
2) Hans von Grobel must survive.
If he dies, you fail. If the vehicle he starts in takes too much damage,
remove him from it and stick him in a safer vehicle.
------------------
SPECIAL ABILITIES:
------------------
1 Heavy Artillery bombardment
1 Recon Plane scout
------------
WALKTHROUGH:
------------
Gather all of your infantry units into a group, then head west along the south
side of the fort. Notice that your units will discover mines, so make sure you
destroy them as you find them, but stay far enough away from the fort to avoid
taking any hits from the guys in it.
Turn north on the western side of the fort, then make your way all the way up
to the oasis. Take care of any enemy troops left around it, then take control
of it to accomplish the secret objective. This will also stop the endless
trickle of enemy infantry units onto the map, so make sure you do it as fast as
possible.
Head to the east across the top of the fort, then stop in the north-eastern
corner. Leave a unit crouched on the small colored indicator to take control
of this "strategic location," then move south along the eastern side of the
fort to remove the mines before von Grobel's tanks show up. Leave another unit
on the indicator in the south-east corner, then send one over to the last
indicator. When you have control of all three spots at the same time, an ammo
truck will appear near your stationary artillery units.
Time to puncture a hole in the fort's wall. Man your field gun with a unit of
riflemen, then push it towards the fort until it can hit the south-east corner.
Continue destroy sections of the fort until a hole is made, and von Grobel's
tanks will appear along with several British tanks. Immediately fend them off
with your tanks, then run them south to cover your other units before they get
attacked. Use your repair truck to fix von Grobel's tank, which will complete
the second optional objective. [Don't forget to heal the other tanks, too.]
There're a ton of infantry units in side the fort, so try to lure some of them
out in front of your tanks. When you've taken care of some of them, start
making runs in there with your tanks, and retreat to repair them if necessary.
Repeat that process until you can take control of the supply depot, and
remember to make good use of your artillery bombardment.
