Indychuck 0 Posted May 31, 2002 Wardog where are you at in the mission? No matter what you do in that mission you will have to retreat to the beach. But I'd be gald to help you out if your stuck on a certain part Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallenPaladin 0 Posted May 31, 2002 Sorry, but what are your mission objectives in Ambush? I can`t remember, it`s been a while... Red Hammer or the original campaign? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acidcrash 0 Posted May 31, 2002 if your talking about the mission i think you are (single mission #2) then no you dont always get forced to the beach, it only forces you to retreat because of the tanks if you enter the town. If you stay on the outskirts, say 50-100m out and kill all occupants from there then the re-inforcements wont arrive followed by the tanks hope this helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-BZ- Wardog 0 Posted June 1, 2002 I guess getting "out alive" and retreating to the beach isn't the defeat I thought..I've since made it past tehis mission and curently getting my chopper basics down... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hidden 0 Posted June 11, 2002 Wasn´t that the first SP demo mission too? Scary for being an introduction to the game  Ah-ah-ah-ah staying alive, staying alive  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jester983 0 Posted June 19, 2002 ah ah ah ah damn 2 is down. 2 is down.. Is it me or did this mission seem easier when it was a demo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ralphwiggum 6 Posted June 19, 2002 from what i hear, it was easier in DEMO. less tanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aculaud 0 Posted June 19, 2002 I know iv beaten that mission before without having to retreat to anywhere. I think its contigent on how many squad members you have left by the time you reach houdan. I'v done it before with about 7 squad members still there by the time we reached houdan and all we had to do was clear the town of infantry and we won. But then, i just got done playing it through again and had about three mates left by the time we reached the town and we got forced out by tanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acidcrash 0 Posted June 19, 2002 what i think it is after doing some experimenting is a trigger zone around the town, enter it and it sets off the tanks, dont enter it, they stay put... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aculaud 0 Posted June 19, 2002 ........but iv entered the town before and didnt have to run from any tanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hneel 0 Posted June 22, 2002 I finally did it! My entire team got killed when approaching Houdan, the first town. I didn't enter the town, as to not set off any triggers. But the tanks came anyway. I retreated in the direction of my base, as suggested. And one tank came after me. I managed to capture that one (with a lot of saving and reloading). Then I got back to Houdan, killed some infantry. Didn't see the other tanks anymore. Moved on to Dourdan. Nobody was there. Then I moved around the area in the direction of the beach. There were the 3 other tanks plus a shilka. I destroyed those, and went back to Houdan. I found some remaining infantry there. I shot them, and the game was over. Mission completed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
