Classic Campaign – Mission 20S: Wings of Victory! (Sami)

Tensions run high and fog hangs low as Sami and Eagle face off.

Mission Strategy

For all of the Green Earth maps, you will be able to choose between all three of the Orange Star COs. Each CO has an entirely different map. Unlike the original game, you do not need to do certain missions as certain COs to unlock Drake and Eagle. Both Green Earth COs are unlocked by beating the missions with any CO.

This battle is against Eagle, the air unit specialist. The map is littered with Bombers that can come out of the fog and deal huge amounts of damage. Try to keep your high value units like your Medium Tank, Rockets, and Missiles in the Woods where the Bombers can’t see them. Use your Mechs and Infantry to bait out the enemy Bombers without losing too much.

Eagle also only has two Fighters, so once you clear them out your Fighters can harass his Bombers. Just watch out for his Missiles hidden by his HQ and his multiple Anti-Air.

Power Goal: 3

HQ Capture: Most of Eagle’s forces will leave his HQ unguarded, choosing to move toward you instead. However, Eagle does keep three Bombers on standby that only move if they see an enemy. All three of these Bombers can attack units on his HQ.

You’ll need to destroy (or block out) at least two of his Bombers. With Sami’s CO Power up, you can survive a hit from a single Bomber with 5 health, leaving you enough to finish the capture in two turns. Use your Fighters to clear the air and protect your Transport Copter. Dropping to the north of his HQ is the best option since you can outrange his Missiles.

Defeat All Enemies: The biggest threat on this map is Eagle’s Bombers. He has four of them and every one can deal heavy damage to your limited forces, especially if her gets his CO Power. Keep to the Woods and move slowly. One of his Bombers and his two Fighters will rush you, but the other three will wait until you are in range.

His ground forces are not much of a threat. Keep your forces in the Woods and your Rockets behind your Tanks and you should be fine. Capture Cities and heal up if your Medium Tank, Missiles, or Rockets get injured.
