Well, I'm finally using 1.87.

"General, it is finally time to push into western Europe.

As of this briefing our tanks divisions are clashing with ECA's armoured battalions in a mountain pass in the French Alps. Overlooking the cliffs are artillery batteries that are pounding our Kodiaks and Tesla tanks on a regular basis. If these batteries stand, we will have no hopes of invading France and eventually Spain with a strong enough force. Shock Troopers, led by the hero Boris, are standing ready to eliminate the ECA's last line of defence. Luckily for you, we have word from our scouts that the ECA outposts have highly volatile Munitions Bunkers close to the Howitzers.

I hope you like explosions."

Objective 1: Destroy all 6 artillery batteries.

Hints:

Barrels.

You have access to a Field Quarters should you need basic infantry.

You have access to one artillery unit, trust me you'll need it.

Barrels.

Just gave it a go. Great mission! Very interesting and fun. It could even be a bit harder, but an outstanding job, nonetheless.

Can you reupload this map?

Sure, here it is.

I've made a couple of changes:

If Boris dies, the mission is failed.

There are more ECA anti-infantry units/structures protecting the howitzers.

So the mission is a little bit harder now, but should still be fairly easy to complete.

Great. I'll get it now.

I also tried out Strained Conscience, and it was really good. Glad to see more missions like this being made.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.

Quite a fun mission, but I don't understand why Conscripts can't capture buildings. Not enough Russian flags to go around? XD

Also, the AI is cheating - they're building Fenrises without the Pandora Protocol

I like to think of this mission more as a demolition style rather than capture, but I like the lack of Russian flags idea better

Yep, that crazy A.I sure loves breaking the rules

It certainly is a very... CnC-esque mission. Clear goals, sensible team of starting units and lots of explosions, along with a mean surprise or two.
