Mission Six: The AAN

Objectives:

  • Destroy Braddock's base before the convoy can reach it
  • Hide the Scion forces inside the base
  • Destroy the Scion rebel convoy
You're back with the human units, but you know the drill: deploy the recycler, build two or three scavengers (you can have the third troll around for Bio-metal), set up your defenses with guardians and, after a while, turrets, and build a repair bay and service truck to repair the base. Next, build a factory and start building up your assault forces. Bring at least a dozen heavy assault and flexible tanks with you.

As you reach the ISDF base, you can take out the power generators and recycler in short order, though watch out for ISDF units that will try to stop you. With the recycler destroyed, a renegade Scion outfit will arrive with the last power crystal and will not act very pleasant - you'll have to take them out. Make sure you nab the hauler with the power crystal early on in the battle so you won't have to worry about it later.

Mission Seven: Braddock

Objectives:

  • Establish a base
  • Control the canyon

Build up your base in a hurry, though you'll have to make do with the one scrap pool for now.
There's only one available nearby scrap pool, so you can build two scavengers and have the second scavenge until you manage to overrun one of the ISDF extractors nearby. In the meantime, build up some light units and fend off any ISDF attacks - They shouldn't be too difficult.

Once you take the ISDF-occupied scrap pool they won't be happy, so make sure it is well defended by guardians and other units as you see fit. Make sure the recycler is defended as well. Now build up your base a bit, make a strike force of assault units, and take on the second ISDF extractor, which is being held by a group of tough ISDF tanks and other vehicles. Once they and the extractor are destroyed, occupy the scrap pool with another scavenger and put some heavy defenses around it - you can pull some defenses off the first pool you captured if you're needy.

A third and fourth pool now block the way toward the ISDF base. Build up as many heavy units as possible - these extractors are heavily guarded. If you feel you have enough units to assault them, build a few more for good measure. Try not to send them in all at once, but order them in staggered. Bring a healer along too.

Now it's time to kill the base, so build up base attackers, like archers, and as always, take out the power systems first from long range. Then roll in with your heavies.

Once the ISDF is finally destroyed, you have a new job: head back to the Alchemitor and kill Braddock. He'll be in an Attila, so you'll need a heavy as well. But that's all you'll face, so he shouldn't be too much of a hassle. Once he's been toasted, the mission, not to mention the campaign, is over.
