The Red Odyssey - Chinese Mission 2 (Protection) pt1

Part 1 of Mission 2 (Protection) of the Chinese missions on The Red Odyssey (add-on pack for Battlezone). Probably the 3rd hardest mission - a long base defence with two sets of escort duties.

There are obviously two areas that need to be defended - the lower base gets more units attacking it but the enemy units are mostly tanks and fighters. The upper level gets attacked by bombers and walkers as well and their target (the hangar) is much more fragile. I found using turrets fine for the lower base and then used my own tank and (later) upgraded gun towers to defend the upper base to work the best. You will, however, need to keep an eye on the hangar and repair as necessary - sticking buildings between the GTs and hangar will also confound the bombers a little too.

When escorting the walker, as quickly as possible get yourself and a few units defending it - trying to defend it on your own is hard work as enemy units will crowd the walker and destroy it before you have time to destroy them. Leaving some pups around on the way home helps too.

How did you get that lead indicator telling you where to shoot, when targeting enemy units?

[AngryTurtleHead]

@GrandDracolich

Its called Target Lead in the options

Whre is Black Dog Mission 14 and the Chinease mission 1.

@MagnitudePerson BD Mission 14 is fairly easy but is all about attrition so doesn't make for interesting viewing (and makes for lots of individual videos!). Chinese mission 1 - tbh, I couldn't do the sniper bit without saving at least once (to my shame!) IIRC..and a couple of people had already done vids for it anyway

I am stuck on this mission...repairs from the armory to the hanger simply sink through the hangar. And the light tanks are dangerous, too

BZ is an amazing game =P

[AngryTurtleHead]

Make sure you're looking at the hangar on the screen or in the satellite when it's being repaired or upgraded - even though I'd played this game for an age before, it's only recently that I realised that this upgrade bug exists..also, sticking things inbetween the hangar and the main entrance on the higher ground helps a little. As ExDeathevn says, satellite view is helpful in this mission too. Good luck! =)

Nice defending, but you had Satelite view to place the turrets if you wanted.

Unless you were around 1999-2001 then I won't, sorry...but thanks for the compliment..kinda easier on SP, MP is where all the skill is!
