This is arguably the hardest objective in this mission. First off, the objective is probably the easiest if you spawn as a Clone Trooper or an Engineer. While not absolutely necessary, hopping on one of the hovertanks will make your job easier too. "Beach Command Post" refers to the forward command post on the beach; the timer will start once you (or other friendlies) capture it. Then you have 20-30 seconds to brace yourself before the CIS assault begins. They will throw everything they've got at you (including all types of infantry except Droidekas, Tank Droids, STAPs, and Homing Spider Droids), so be prepared to defend against multiple onslaughts of enemies.

Don't bother spawning as a Heavy Trooper just to destroy the Tank Droids; your allies will focus their fire on them anyway. You need to make sure that a minimum  enemy units make it onto the beach. If you see any enemy unit capturing the command post, jump out of your tank (if you're on one) and dash to the point to stop the capture. This is a long 3 minutes, and if you lose the command post, the level will be aborted.
