Strategy[edit]

Win the naval battle by keeping your ships closely together and firing on distant rather than adjacent targets. Surviving ships can provide artillery cover for ground units along the coast as they advance north and east to capture factories, depots and, finally, the enemy HQ. If you can make a break for Factory 5 early in the level (with planes and then Supply Trucks with Infantry), then do it. It is a good place to make a stand and is full of troops. Let your own factories produce aircraft, and use them to support your ground troops. Ignore the shore in the southeastern corner of the map.
