Here's my little ambush story from the government point of view. Mind you, I did this in one go .. only reloaded once, because of a crash.

I started by dropping my two riflemen (SIG-552 and a SIG-550) at the left rocks. From there they can fire into the flank of the rebels, while they are occupied by the Gov. soldiers in the middle.



My marksman (SIG-550-1) and my automatic rifleman (HK-23E) are deployed to the right side, as there is a lot of open ground to cover here. And quite a few enemies.


Just keep firing down the flank, while staying in cover. Moving forward at this point is complete suicide.




Unfortunately, the AI sometimes feels a bit special.


It is time to push up, and the enemies are already in retreat.


My right flank has been cleaned up by this point.


The overall situation: I move my marksman and automatic rifleman to the middle of the road to wipe out the last enemies in the open, and my riflemen to support them. The rebels were smart enough to pull back a bit, into cover.


Masha was hit while she was pulling back to the road, and I put her in cover to heal and rest. So I had to flank the enemy alone. Surprise!


Two bursts later...


The last enemies are waaaaay back in the jungle, but my marksman has spotted them. These were the last two enemies.


Bodycount:
- 6 friendly KIA
- 30 enemy KIA

About 10 friendlies remained, or so. Most of the guys who charged into the open got killed, but there were a few unlucky incidents to those in full cover. Such as a rebel charging up to the trucks, tossing a grenade and then running into it himself .. but still killing a soldier.

The outsourced.ini tweak worked perfectly. At one point I accidently shot the guy who ran in front of my gun (TWICE), but nobody really cared (at this point I crashed, ironically, because I tried to quickload. The guy died anyway, because he charged up quite far ahead). Tossing grenades with friendlies next to me didn't upset them either.
