The Marines had been expecting to face a poorly armed militia, instead they were up against a major armoured force... The Sudanese have follow-on forces moving up, and it looks like a group of BMPs are breaking away from the main force to try to flank the Marines... And they have their own air support inbound too... To be continued...

You don't have any keys or joystick buttons assigned your guns. In the game go into Options/Control/Customize and then you can set your joystick buttons up to fire the guns.

Strung out across the valley floor to prevent any militia forces escaping towards the border, the Marine blocking force is at a distinct disadvantage in the upcoming engagement.. With no time to call for extraction or even to redeploy to the opposite slopes of the valley the Marines will not hold the high ground and the only option will be to try to pick off the enemy vehicles as they crest the ridge and are silhouetted against the skyline... If the enemy armour gets down to the valley floor they will be able to manoeuvre freely and bring their main guns to bear on the lightly armoured Marine vehicles.. But the Marines have air support from AH-1Ws and F/A-18Ds which will try to thin down the Sudanese forces, with the FAC firstly running in to mark targets... Closely followed by the attack birds.. This isn't going to be easy though, the enemy have brought air defence units with them.. But the Marines have a flight outfitted for defence suppression... And then the first enemy units cross the ridgeline and the battle really begins... To be continued...
