The first objective serves as a briefing. The main objective of this map is to capture the town of el Mechili. A secondary objective is to secure the road to Msus.

At the start, there's little room for maneuver. When moving forward, you will trigger an enemy/AI attack, well, there's actually two; one east and one southeast. Prepare for that attack and position your troops as good as possible. Flanking the town from both sides might be the best approach. If you're in for a heavy fight, you could try going frontal...

Remember, clearing your starting points, will give room for reinforcements.
