The convoy mission, my way

[R@S]

I've decided to share my tactics about this very much dicussed mission. It's one of the hardest in the game since 25% of your allies have to survive.

I'm playing for the Rebels and as you can see I only have 2 mercs, my CQB guy and a sniper.


I move my CQB guy to the right flank, sprinting all the way to avoid enemy fire.


I move the sniper to this position. I've found that it gives you good cover from the worst enemy snipers, but at the same time it gives you a clear view of the battlefield.


I let my sniper pick them off as they appear. I'll leave him for now, but I constantly pick new targets for him as he kills the one he's shooting at.


My CQB guy starts working his way towards the truck, laying waste to the enemy that's in his way.


Shooting from the hip is very important.


Kill one, them move on.


There are more enemies to the left, but I ignore them, the rebels will take care of them.


This is the position I was trying to get to. It gives good cover and lets you throw nades at the snipers behind the trucks.


And throw a few nades at them. From here it won't turn your allies hostile.


Time to move in and mop up.


Well, that's how I play that mission. There are other ways but I've found that this works best if you are alone or only have 2 mercs. If I solo I follow the path of the QCB guy.
