Legend:

[1] - starting position

[2] - hill India

[3] - sector Romeo

[4] - sector Sierra

[5] - main enemy troops attacking the hill (tanks T-72, BMP)

[6] - support enemy troops attacking the hill (APCs, infantry, AA vehicle)

[7] - enemy crossing the bridge (tanks T-64, APCs)

[8] - patrol area of enemy gunships and recon choppers, later place assault place of tanks T-64 and BMP vehicles

[9] - one of the attack direction later in the mission (mainly APCs)

 

Gather 2000 points (6)

You are starting near the bridge [1]. Buy recon vehicles (two Bradleys and one helicopter), support (2-3 trucks HEMTT) and 2-3 units with mortar. Group with them AA missile launcher Roland, infantry in APCs, all AMX tanks and one command vehicle. This is your first army. Now create the second one consists of: 4 tanks AMX-30B2 and 1 AA Roland. Now move first army to capture hill India [2] (place command car near FOB) and move units to the eastern edge from where they will be able to attack enemies downhill (picture below). Cannonade big groups of enemies with mortars. Main opponent's units will follow along eastern road [5] but be ready to counter assaults from north [6] and later light ones from west [9]. Up to speed repair damage units and support them with gunships.

Simultaneously after mission starts send command vehicles to Romeo [3] and Sierra [4] sectors. In Romeo place second army (AMX tanks and AA Roland) near the bridge and in time send there 4 gunships Cobra and one group of tanks. At the beginning you will be safe but later the enemy will across the bridge [7] in Romeo sector. Then the choppers will income so try to buy some more AA units to destroy them (picture below).

In some moment enemy will across bridge in the east [8]. Until then you should be close to gather 2000 points but just in case patrol this area with choppers and tanks (picture below). It is enough army to stop presumptive assault. Just control three outposts and send them supply or new units and after some period of time you will win.

Defend sector India for 15 minutes (4) - additional

How to do this is described above (Gather 2000 points). In short send on the hill 8 AMX tanks, recon chopper, gunships, 2 Bradleys, 2-3 supply trucks HEMTT, APCs with infantry, some mortars and command vehicle. Place soldiers in the bushes and tanks on the eastern edge. Support land units with gunships. Remember that you have to control hill for 15 minutes from capture it (not from start of the mission) so if you will be close to gather 2000 points before that time than buy some units to extend it. If you gather points before countdown will ends you won't complete this task.

Don't lose any command vehicle (5) - additional

You have to control all outposts and quickly repair every command unit that get damaged.
