When I rejoined the game, it was well under way. Seeing some decent squads I took up CO. The used strategy offered decent control, by having one cp locked down pretty much.

At the start the us had taken the factory, and squad 4 (mip) was ardently defending the east city with 5 i believe. Squad six with Santa was still up at bridge with a rally. Expecting them to do much damage, they could stay there.

Soon enough the squads were able to recap the factory. All squads were alerted that squad six was in position to take the flag, as I expected them to, even though they were probably in the midst of the enemy reinforcements.

Six capped it with the help of squad 2 who were ordered to move south from factory to take the hill west of bridge. At the same time 3 moved on to capping dam. First bridge came our way, and immediately after that dam.

Squad 3 then showed quite good initiative. As you can see in this screenshot.



They did leave dam unordered, but we were able to attack west beach now and they had moved there very quickly. Four and 2 were pulled of the city and bridge respectively to assist at dam.

In the next screen 3 has made it to west beach and capped it, yet dam has been greyed. Four has been driven back, but 2 has been ordered to attack dam by taking the south road.



Eventually they chose to go through the dam, 4 came back in and they retook it. Squad six from whom I expected a little more, were now holding bridge on their own, as they would until the end of the round. They should have had 5 for backup but infidels blocked them by blowing the bridge.

In the last screen 3 is going to recap west beach, and five is finally moving south on the far right of the map. The round ended before they got there though .


It was an interesting game, and the first time I co-ed this map. The main strength of our team seemed to be a firm defense of bridge, combined with quick attacks from 3. I think bridge is by far th emost important flag on this map. It is in the centre of the map, and it is right next to the highest point on the map. Then you just use the mip to fill in the gaps .

The ideal plan I had in mind was to have 1 squad on each hill at the bridge (NW, NE, SE). Unfortunately that never happened, but the other squads made up for the enemy's disruptions. It all unfolded twice as fast as I had foreseen.

What I really like as a CO is to have a squad(s) that is really good at attack 6 in this case, and 3, and with that squad(s) that shine in defense (4), yet aren't so fast and deadly at times .
