Classic Campaign – Mission 10A: Olaf’s Sea Strike!

It looks like Olaf is floundering. One more battle, and he’ll be sunk!

Mission Strategy

This is Olaf’s last stand, and it’s a tough one for being this early in the campaign. This mission was actually a hidden mission in the original game that was access only if you destroyed all of Olaf’s naval forces in the previous mission. In Re-Boot Camp, it’s no longer optional for Andy’s path.

Olaf’s naval forces are about equal to yours. It’s important to get the first hit in as much as possible in the sea fight. If you don’t control the water, you will have trouble getting your Landers across. Try to keep your Battleships high on health to help with the next phase of the fight. Watch out for the enemy Battleship hidden in the Reefs near Olaf’s HQ.

Once you win the water, the next step is landing on Olaf’s island. There is no good place to land, as both Beaches are within vision range of Olaf’s units and are protected by indirect-fire units. Be careful of landing at the south Beach as Olaf has a hidden Recon in the Woods that will Trap your landing attempt.

HQ Capture: HQ capture will speed up the victory a little bit, but you’ll have to clear out most of the enemy forces anyway. You’ll want to take out Olaf’s north Battleship hidden in the Reef before dropping off your capturer, but you should be safe from the Rockets hidden in the Woods if you are on the HQ.

It’s relatively easy to keep your Transport Copter alive in this mission. Olaf only has a single Cruiser that needs to be dealt with. Bring your Medium Tank and Tanks in your Landers, and an Infantry or Mech in your Transport Copter to capture the HQ.

Defeat All Enemies: Since you’ll need to clear most of the enemy forces anyway, you shouldn’t have to pick off too many more to finish the mission. After you win the sea battle, land your tanks to start clearing out Olaf’s island. If you still have your Battleships, you can use your tanks to spot for them.

Send your Submarines to take out the hidden Battleship in the north Reefs. You’ll also need to clear out the hidden Rockets, Artillery, and Recon inside the Woods.
