Chapter I

Starting Point

Clear Conditions:

Take Enemy HQ

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 1 Dummy [Optional]

Typical into map that any echelon can beat.

Turn 1

You can also not bother with Dummy echelon and move 2 each turn.

Turn 2

Move dummy up one, then spawn Friend Echelon with 'eliminate' command.

Splinter Point

Clear Conditions:

Take Enemy HQ

Required Squads:

1 Combat

Typical intro map that any echelon can beat.

Turn 1

We are going to rescue T-doll using top left helipad. Rescue T-doll then continue to move towards helipad.

Turn 2

It is important to not take Helipad directly or you will lose the node by surround capture next turn.

Turn 2

Manually extract the hostage after moving on to the helipad.

Stroke Dead-Center I

Clear Conditions:

Take Enemy HQ

Required Squads:

1 Combat

Turn 1

Combat echelon moves on top of neutral helipad south of the HQ, this also activates Hydra unit at the top next turn when radar turns blue.

Turn 2

Always resupply if you are ever unsure of future combat number.

Turn 3

For the beginners we are going to avoid the route that has Goliath unit. Sweep the units at the bottom side by going counter-clockwise.

Turn 4

All you have to do now is to move to node adjacent to the enemy HQ, and it will be surround captured next turn.

Stroke Dead-Center II

Clear Conditions:

Kill all hostile units on the map.

Required Squads:

1 Combat

This is the map where we take advantage of enemy AI’s “Expand” mechanic.

Turn 1

Take care to avoid mortar shells during combat if you are a beginner.

Turn 2

Move to take helipad so we can resupply at the beginning of next turn. It has to be captured at turn 2 or it will be impossible to use.

Turn 3

Resupply and follow shown path back to HQ, when you end turn, last remaining unit should run into combat echelon.

Stroke Dead-Center III

Clear Conditions:

Establish Supply route and maintain it for 2 turns.

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 1 Dummy Recommended. [Could be done with 1 Combat + 2 Dummy with RNG]

Due to Goliath Plus blocking the path on the bottom, we will have to go through the top route with all the enemy units. Additionally, it is safe to have 2nd combat echelon but it will likely to fight once at most. 

Turn 1

Move combat echelon up one, then deploy 2nd combat echelon.

Turn 2a

Before moving on turn 2, make sure to swap and resupply as it will need to fight five more times.

Turn 2b

Swap back to the front and move 3 to the left, this prevents helipad from being surrounded if you forgotten to resupply, giving you another location to resupply.

Turn 3a

Move combat echelon up one from HQ so that dummy echelon could be deployed. Combat echelon near supply point move down one.

Turn 3b

Since there is a chance that HQ could be attacked next turn, swap dummy and 2nd combat echelon as safety measure.

Turn 4

Combat echelon moves on top of supply point and then dummy moves one to left to finish connecting the route. All you have to do now is end turn until map is cleared.

Stroke Dead-Center IV

Clear Conditions:

Kill Boss unit.

Required Squads:

1 Combat

First map with Boss unit. Key point is to surround capture Jupiter to minimize the damage to your combat echelon before boss fight.

Turn 1a

We are mainly responsible for top half of the map while friend units are taking care of bottom side. Take helipad node south of HQ to increase move points.

Turn 1b

This is important and wasting less turn, make sure to set M4 to "Wait" while other two units are set to "Eliminate".

Turn 2a

Combat echelon moves up one to take care of scout. This prevents helipad from being taken next turn.

Turn 2b

Move back on to helipad and resupply before moving all the way down to node adjacent to Jupiter cannon. You should have plenty of move points.

Turn 2c

Make sure to change AI command to "Eliminate" on M4 before ending turn.

Turn 3

We backtrack the route we took last turn, always making sure to resupply on helipad. Then move down to take the helipad near the Jupiter cannon.

Turn 4

Move combat echelon down one, and set M4 to "wait" command once more or she will run into cannon and blow up. Jupiter cannon should be weakened for us to plow through next turn.

Turn 5

If your echelon is damaged, heal up at the helipad near by before taking on the boss. Killing the boss clears the map.

Compression Initiates I

Clear Conditions:

Establish Supply route and maintain it for 3 turns.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 1 Dummy

Looking rather complicated but it’s simple map to clear using power of Hydra tank.

Turn 1

Combat Echelon swaps with M4 unit then moves all the way to radar node, which activates the Hydra tank as ally. End turn and you will also surround capture helipad next turn. M4's command should be set to "wait"

Turn 2a

Move combat echelon between Hydra and M4.

Turn 2b

Spawn the dummy echelon at the helipad. Now we are going to move M4 out of harm's way by swapping. Also make sure that Hydra Ally is set to "Wait" command.

Turn 2d

The end result is that M4 will be on helipad next to radar node. Then we are going to Move Hydra ally all the way to HQ by Swapping as well.

Turn 2f

We are almost done, now we have to make sure that dummy echelon is also out of harm's way. Swap with Combat echelon and we should be set for this turn.

Turn 2g

Make sure that Hydra Ally is set to "Wait" Command before ending the round. Double check!

Turn 3

All that remains now is moving combat echelon to connect the supply route.

Turn 4

All you have to do now is defend the node that is threaten by the enemy units that can break the route. Afterwards map will be cleared.

Compression Initiates II

Clear Conditions:

Kill all enemy units on the map.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 2 Dummy

Goal is to wipe out all enemy units on the map, which includes Jupiter cannon. We will do a surround capture to weaken it first then kill it.

Turn 1

Goal for first 2 turn is to maximize move points. Deploy Dummy echelon after moving Combat echelon right one from HQ.

Turn 2

Both dummy and combat echelon are going to take a helipad on each side of HQ.

Turn 3a

There should be 3 mortar units threatening nodes near helipads. Combat echelon moves to take care of them all.

Turn 3b

Before continuing, swap with dummy echelon to resupply combat echelon.

Turn 3c

Swap back then move left one.

Turn 3d

Dummy echelon will move behind combat echelon.

Turn 4a

Combat echelon moves to take care of enemy units on the left edge of the map.

Turn 4b

Dummy echelon follows behind combat echelon. Then spawn 2nd dummy echelon on HQ.

Turn 4c

Swap dummy echelon and combat echelon and dragoon unit will run into combat echelon at the end of this turn.

Turn 5a

Last thing to do is surround capture the Jupiter. Move dummy echelon on HQ to bottom right node near Jupiter.

Turn 5b

Combat echelon and 1st dummy echelon moves onto remaining node that is not under friendly control.

Turn 6

Combat echelon takes out weakened Jupiter and you are all set!

Compression Initiates III

Clear Conditions:

Establish Supply route and maintain it for 2 turns.

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 1 Dummy

This is one map where having multiple combat echelons are required due to enemy density. Take this as one possible solution to this map. 

Turn 1

Start by taking helipad south of HQ, then deploy 2nd combat echelon on the HQ.

Turn 2a

1st combat echelon moves to helipad to right after resupplying.

Turn 2b

2nd combat echelon moves diagonally down one, then deploy dummy echelon on HQ.

Turn 2c

Goal is to keep dummy echelon out of harm's reach while keeping it useful. We are going to swap back 2nd combat echelon to HQ.

Turn 2d

Dummy echelon swaps one more time with 1st combat echelon.

Turn 3a

Make sure to resupply 1st combat echelon by swapping with dummy echelon. Swap back then move in zigzag line towards Supply point.

Turn 3b

Dummy moves between two combat echelon and form a supply route.

Turn 4a

All you have to do now is to defend the supply route. Make sure the dummy echelon stays out of danger by moving combat echelon where it needs to go.

Turn 4b

Once you maintain the route for 2 turns, you should clear the map automatically.

Compression Initiates IV

Clear Conditions:

Kill boss unit.

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 1 Dummy

This is identical map as Exhaust IV map but now we start at the bottom side of the map instead of top. Method will be largely unchanged however. We are going to surround capture the Jupiter then move to kill the boss unit.

Turn 1

We are starting with 2 combat echelons on either side and 1 Dummy echelon on the center helipad. Move to clear all units near Jupiter cannon as shown above. Try to keep your best echelon in good health, as it will need to fight boss.

Turn 2a

As you realized by now, enemy units spawn every turn from the helipad that is inaccessible due to one-way path. Park your combat echelon and dummy echelon near by so that you can resupply by swapping.

Turn 2c

Make sure to swap back or dummy echelon will get run over by spawning unit.

Turn 2d

Combat echelon on the left end moves around to take the helipad near the center of the map. Turn ally units back to "Eliminate" before ending the turn.

Turn 3

Combat echelons move to take remaining node near Jupiter cannon to surround capture.

Turn 4

All that remain is fight with the boss once more.

Re-Ignition I

Clear Conditions:

Establish Supply Route and maintain it for 2 turns.

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 1 Dummy

Large looking map but in reality we only care about the top side, and bottom side will largely take care of itself using ally units. Due to split nature, 2 combat echelon around equal strength is required.

Turn 1

Start off with 2 combat echelon on each place. Only one that we have to toggle is UMP 45 to "wait" and leave rest of ally units as is.

Turn 2a

Continue to clear out the enemy units in each pocket. Spawn dummy echelon on the right side of the map.

Turn 3a

Combat echelon on the right side clears out the remaining units. Combat echelon on the left continues to make route to be connected later.

Turn 3b

Before ending turn, make sure UMP 45 is toggled back to "Eliminate" and UMP 9 is toggled to "Wait".

Turn 4

Last thing to do is combat echelon near HQ to go all the way back up to resupply then kill the last enemy unit in the pocket. For reference, Jupiter cannon drops limited doll, so here's one chance you can get it by attacking weakened Jupiter.

Re-ignition II

Clear Conditions:

Take radar node.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 1 Dummy

Relatively simple map however Mortar units and Goliath unit could be challenging to beginners. [Those are also units that will drop limited T-doll]

Turn 1

Move combat echelon to left then spawn Dummy on HQ.

Turn 2

If you move to the node shown, there is a chance where you can avoid fights with mortar and Goliath units. Do this if your combat echelon is heavily damaged or you don't care about limited-doll.

Turn 3

Either safely go around the enemy units or go through them for chance at limited drops. Ending turn on Radar node clears the map.

Re-ignition III

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 2 Dummies

This is where your normal map meets armor. Recommend two echelons that can take care of armor units. Goliath Plus units are stationary at all times. I will also show you unconventional[?] method to clear this map if your goal is to clear only at all cost.

Turn 1a

Start with two combat echelons on starting point. Move combat echelon up one, then deploy Dummy Echelon.

Turn 1b

Swap location as dummy is safe from combat this turn.

Turn 1c

Repeat the steps with other side, deploy 2nd dummy echelon.

Turn 1d

Swap Combat echelon forward using 2nd dummy echelon.

Turn 1e

Repeat process and bring 2nd combat echelon all the way forward.

Turn 2a

Beginning of turn 2, one of the enemy units will be blocking a path, in this case top side. If one combat echelon is weaker than the other, use the weaker one by swapping towards it.

Turn 2b

The stronger echelon then [bottom side in this case] moves all the way to node near enemy HQ following this path. Goal is to use the stronger echelon to remove all armor units on one side of the map, making it safe for dummy echelon or weaker echelon to move up.

Turn 3

Now that dummy echelon near HQ is threatened, swap with combat echelon. Then dummy echelon moves up along safe side of the map to meet up with combat echelon.

Turn 4a

Once all hostile units are taken care of for dummy echelon, move in position to surround capture the enemy HQ.

Turn 5

All you have to do now is take last two nodes by enemy HQ and you will clear the mission.

Now for those who have hard time beating this map or is short on resources, try out only dummy method!

Re-ignition IV

Clear Conditions:

Establish Supply Route and maintain it for 2 turns

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 1 Dummy

This is the farming map for MP7 and it also gets bit tricky with puzzle. however once you understand the logic, it’s easy sailing then on. Two strong echelon at level around 70 4x is recommended if you do not want to incur heavy repair cost.

Turn 1a

Start off by moving combat echelon to helipad bottom left. Spawn 2nd combat echelon.

Turn 1b

Set Ally commands so that only G11 is on "Eliminate" and rest on "Wait".

Turn 2a

Combat echelon on bottom left move up and to right and combat echelon on HQ move to right. Deploy Dummy echelon on HQ.

Turn 2b

As you noticed, Goliath Plus unit also moved up one, as same line as HK416. We now change HK to "Eliminate" while rest stays on standby.

Turn 3a

Depending on your combat echelon's health level, swap out between two combat echelons so no echelon goes too low. Resupply by swapping as you see fit.

Turn 3b

Here i swapped between Pink and Yellow echelon because one was too low on health.

Turn 3c

Eliminate enemy units near the combat echelon.

Turn 3d

If you are worried about dummy echelon being exposed to battle, it will not move towards dummy. [At least during numerous trials]

Turn 3e

Don't forget to change UMP 9's command to "Eliminate" before ending turn.

Turn 4a

Combat echelon moves to connect route to HQ. Swap echelon on HQ and dummy to save move points.

Turn 4c

Lastly, UMP 45 is set to "Eliminate".

Turn 5

Your route should be established now, all you have to do is defend it from the enemy units from being broken for 2 turns.

Messenger

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

1 Dummy

In order to unlock this map, you need to kill Executioner 5 times in Great Retreat chapter. This unsuspecting map is where your RNG will be tested. There’s hidden achievement where you can take enemy HQ without having a single combat. Test your luck and let me know how many tries it took.

Turn "Is this a joke?" It actually isn't.

All you have to do is take your dummy echelon down the path of RNG... Good luck!

Chapter II

Second Moon: Splitting Point

Clear Conditions:

Capture radar node.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night/Armor]+ 1 Dummy

This is relatively simple map that has some armor units on the way. If you have AR echelon that is self-buff or RFHG, lvl 70 with 4x link should be able blast through with 3 star equipment.

Turn 1

Deploy dummy echelon on the helipad to gain an additional move next turn.

Turn 2

If you want to kill more units on the way you can take different routes, but the route shown should offer no/the least amount of enemy units between the radar.

Queen's Gambit I

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [night/armor]

Turn 1

Another simple map where you can go either top or bottom route. For sake of guide I took top route. Take the helipad for additional move point.

Turn 2

We are short on move point to get to the HQ this turn, so we take radar and wait a turn.

Turn 3

There's a really weak tank that all you have to do is empty the middle row so that no T-doll can be shot by tank. Should be a easy win.

Queen's Gambit II

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy helipad within given turn.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night]

Turn 1

You can start anywhere, all you have to do is get to the helipad on the other end of the map. There's new enemy unit that plants mines as it approaches, if you cannot kill it before it reaches your T-dolls, you will have to either retreat dolls on that row or move the dolls out of the way. Should be an easy fight regardless.

Queen's Gambit III

Clear Conditions:

Establish Supply Route and maintain it for 2 turns.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night/Armor]

This is the map where you are restricted to having only one echelon for the map, but it’s designed to be beaten by one echelon so shouldn’t be an issue.

Turn 1

Combat echelon will move 1 node per turn so that it can establish supply route to destination.

Turn 2

There's shouldn't be much of challenge other than managing health of your echelon if T-dolls are under-leveled or under equipped.

Turn 3

Just move single node per turn.

Turn 4

Your echelon should be out of ammo but with two enemy units near by. This is perfectly fine as no enemy units near you will attack you. Just keep hitting End round button until map is cleared.

Queen's Gambit IV

Clear Conditions:

Establish Supply Route and maintain it for 5 turns.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night/Armor] + 1 Dummy OR 2nd Combat

Turn 1

This map has bit of RNG where if you only have 1 Combat Echelon, your Supply point can be taken by enemy units and will have to test your luck once more later down the line. However this method is fairly consistent if supply point is not taken at the end of 1st turn. Combat echelon starts at the HQ and move to take helipad Northwest of HQ.

Turn 2a

Combat echelon resupplies then Sweep its way to Supply point. Then swap with dummy unit on helipad.

Turn 2b

Just to provide buffer zone for later turns, take out the armor unit that's on radar.

Turn 3a

As you can see now that there's two enemy units threatening the supply point. Move up the combat echelon and swap so that dummy echelon is out of harm's way.

Turn 3b

Kill the armor unit on the left side that can sever the supply route.

Turn 3c

After that you should not see any more units coming from the yellow helipad until end of the mission. Guard the Supply point with your combat echelon.

Castling I

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night]

This map is rather brutal for under-leveled T-dolls so I recommend getting your echelon to decent skill levels and gears. [70/4x link/good night vision equipment]. You only need 1 echelon. 

Turn 1

Take helipad in front of starting point then end turn.

Turn 2

I found that taking the left route is best way and has least number of enemies on the way to HQ. Because you are going to lose the helipad up top, take the helipad here in case if you need to resupply.

Turn 3

You can choose the route that has least number of enemies on the way to enemy HQ.

Castling II

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night]

Turn 1

This map is real simple in a way that you don't have to do anything but move your echelon 2 nodes every turn. You also don't have to worry about ally unit on the other end of the map.

Turn 2

Keep moving your echelon 2 nodes per turn.

Turn 3

And you beat the map!

Castling III

Clear Conditions:

Kill all enemy units on the map within given turns.

Required Squads:

2 Combat [Night] + 1 Dummy [Optional]

This map is the one that has RNG dependent and will be needed to adjust your moves at the end to kill last two enemy units.

Turn 1

But start is always same by taking helipad and deploying 2nd combat echelon.

Turn 2

By now you should see a single red node in one of 3 "tendrils" that shoots out from the left side of the map. That's where one of the enemy unit is. I have marked such location with Green diamond shape [there is one more below that is cut off from image]. If you want to have spare move point next turn, spawning dummy echelon here would be recommended.

Turn 3

On turn 3, you have will have enough move point to find remaining 2 enemy units and a spare turn to kill them.

Castling IV

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night] + 2 Dummy

This is large map but we are only going to use the right third of the map for actual clearing. This method shown is not an S-rank clear. Start with two Dummy echelons on each helipad.

Turn 1a

Again we are going to ignore the entirety of left side of the map other than moving dummy one to the right to take helipad. Then on the right side, Move dummy up 1 then spawn your combat echelon. Combat echelon is going to be going against Striker units, so if you can't burst front line quickly, I recommend RFHG team.

Turn 1b

Swap the dummy and combat echelon's location.

Turn 1c

Then we are going to swap so that Ally echelon is going to be all the way in the front, followed by Combat echelon then dummy echelon at the rear. Make sure the ally echelon is set to "Eliminate" before ending turn.

Turn 2a

At this point, Ally echelon should have taken care of Goliath Plus unit, which cleared the way for combat echelon to move forward. Move up one with combat echelon then swap with ally unit.

Turn 2b

Combat echelon move all the way to the "?" node which is the ambush node. Kill the striker units and clear the path way for dummy echelon.

Turn 2c

Dummy echelon now move all the way up to the radar right below enemy HQ. Make sure to follow the path that is cleared of ambush tiles. Stepping on the radar unit activates abandoned robot unit on the right side of the map.

Turn 2d

If you want to be absolutely sure of not messing with RNG, you can wait a turn for Boss to move before setting ally robot unit to "Capture" command. I have tried about 10 times and each time boss went for dummy, but I could be just lucky.

Turn 3

Once Boss unit moves out of the way and robot makes its way to enemy HQ, map is cleared. If you waited a turn for boss to move before activating the ally robot, move combat echelon away from Boss unit so it doesn't fight it.

Promotion I

Clear Conditions:

Kill all enemy units within given turns.

Required Squads:

2 Combat [Night/Armor]

This map has hidden achievement where if you control all nodes at the end of the mission, you get bonus resources and experience. We are going to achieve that by spending 1 extra turn. 

Turn 1

Start by moving combat echelon left one then deploying 2nd combat echelon.

Turn 2

1st combat echelon moves down one and 2nd combat echelon goes to top row. If you are having issue with armored doggos, airstrike fairy or adding an MG to echelon solves this issue.

Turn 3

Continue to sweep forward using both echelons shown above. Again goal is to control all nodes when we kill last enemy.

Turn 4

1st combat echelon sweeps bottom to middle row then 2nd combat echelon moves up 1. This should surround capture remaining enemy node, and you can kill the last enemy unit next turn.

Promotion II

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night/Armor] + 1 Dummy

Turn 1a

The Map presents you choice with routes to enemy HQ. Move combat echelon up one, then spawn dummy echelon.

Alternatively, to check for the red bean spawn location, move the combat team left instead so you can take the radar on Turn 1b instead (if you do this method, spawn a friend echelon instead so you have the extra AP).

Turn 1b

Swap combat echelon and dummy echelon so that dummy echelon is out of harm's way.

Turn 2

Next turn, you swap with dummy echelon and move straight to HQ using top route. As you can see, middle and bottom route is blocked by Goliath Plus units.

Promotion III

Clear Conditions:

Rescue 3 hostage dolls.

Required Squads:

1 Dummy OR 1 Combat echelon if you are looking to get secret achievement. (video at the bottom)

This map is holy grail for gear farming if you are really looking to save resources.
Scroll below for the video to unlock the secret achievement

Turn 1

Start with single dummy at the HQ then end turn.

Turn 2a

Beginning of 2nd turn, you notice that all the temporary helipad below hostage units have opened up. All you have to do now is rescue hostages and manually extract them on the spot before moving to next hostage.

Turn 2b

Again repeat the process.

Turn 2c

And you are done!.

Secret Achievement Guide

For sake of time, I have recorded video of how to do the achievement with 1 combat echelon.

Promotion IV

Clear Conditions:

Capture enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 2 Dummy

Promotion map looks basically identical to Castling IV map and we are going to apply very similar strategy to clear the map. Again this will not be an S-clear but lot easier because of it. Start off with dummy echelon on each helipad. 

Turn 1a

Move up dummy up one then deploy combat echelon.

Turn 1b

Then we are going to scoot everyone up one node each.

Turn 2a

Beginning of turn 2, as usual all "?" node is ambush nodes so combat echelon move up to clear it for dummy echelon.

Turn 2b

Dummy echelon moves up and swaps with combat echelon, offering itself to be the sacrifice to Goliath Plus unit. When Dummy echelon gets attacked, just retreat immediately.

Turn 3a

All that's left to do is for combat echelon to take path around the Goliath Plus unit to the radar, activating the abandoned robot ally.

Turn 3b

I recommend you change the command to "Wait" so that there's no chance for robot to be attacked by boss instead of your combat echelon. When boss unit runs into combat echelon, you can either fight it or retreat to save repair cost.

Turn 4

Now that boss unit is out of the way, change the robot command to "capture" Then all you have to do is push "end round" button until map is cleared.

Minor Pieces Draw I

Clear Conditions:

Establish Supply Route and maintain it for 2 turns.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night] + 1 Dummy

Once again, it’s identical map but from “other side”

Turn 1

Start with combat echelon at the bottom helipad and dummy on the HQ. You don't have to worry about M4 unit here. Combat echelon move to take radar node.

Turn 2

Soon as you see that boss unit moved towards combat echelon, we run back to helipad and sit tight for next few turns. Boss unit will not come to you from here.

Turn 3

M4 slowly makes her way to the supply point. Just let her do her work.

Turn 4

And supply route is established. You can either change m4's command to wait or watch her run into boss and die. Keep hitting "End round" button until you are victorious. Oh and keep an eye out for your combat echelon's health and ammo supply.

Minor Pieces Draw II

Clear Conditions:

Establish supply route and maintain it for 5 turns.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 2 Dummy

BEFORE YOU BEGIN: This map is RNG dependent and will likely to be the one map that guide will be least helpful. However I have provided you with 2 out of 4 possible choices you have to make on 2nd turn below. Key thing to remember is that if you want to reduce RNG, do not put more than one unit in proximity of tank at equal distanceIf you want to try to copy the guide, reset the map until Goliath Plus unit is on the same spot as the guide on turn 1. Start off with Combat echelon at HQ and dummy echelon on each helipad..

Turn 1

This map is RNG reliant due to the random spawn location of the Goliath Plus unit. It will determine where the tank will go on first turn. Regardless, let's move all units to nearby helipad so that we have more move points next turn. Important note: All "?" nodes are ambush nodes.

Note

Now because Tank in the center has moved to "top" half of the map [blue circles], we are going to take the bottom route [Red arrow]. There are slight variations but it will be best to divide them this way. There's also reason we are not moving in straight line: the route we took will provide only the weak enemy units, other "?" nodes will spawn stronger armor units.

Turn 2a

Following the image above, Combat echelon moves towards dummy at the bottom helipad then swaps with it. Make sure to resupply before continuing.

Turn 2b

Again we follow the route shown.

Turn 2c

Because we need the radar in the center to see where tank is going, we need to have a node adjacent to radar under control during the mission. Dummy that swapped with combat echelon moves to opposite end of where tank is so it will not get attacked this turn. This is very important.

Turn 3a

Combat echelon resupplies again then move to free up the other dummy echelon, following similar route. Swap with dummy echelon to save move point.

Turn 3b

Dummy echelon that is at the center of the map moves to supply point. Care to not step on any "?" node by accident on the way.

Turn 3c

What's left now is to connect the route between HQ and supply point. Combat echelon moves to clear remaining "?" nodes on it's way back to HQ. This is where you will start to have variation with guide so be flexible.

Turn 4

The Tank has moved up towards combat echelon since it is the closest unit to it. This opens up the path at the bottom to be connected. Move combat echelon and dummy echelon to link bottom two routes. Then Dummy echelon at the top right corner continues to draw aggro of tank by staying in range but not being threatened.

Turn 5a

All that's left now is to connect last two nodes between supply route and HQ. Move either dummy or combat echelon to take control of the node. Dummy echelon on top right retreats into the corner, outside of tank's patrol range.

Turn 6

Once route is established, move all echelons out of the center square map, which de-aggros the tank and it will stop moving, keeping the supply route safe from being severed.

Supply Line Established

Now all you have to do is hit "End Round" button until map is cleared!

Minor Pieces Draw II(Alt Route)

Clear Conditions:

Establish supply route and maintain it for 5 turns.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 2 Dummy

BEFORE YOU BEGIN: This map is RNG dependant. Therefore this guide will likely be especially the least helpful . However I have provided you with 2 out of 4 possible choices you have to make on 2nd turn below. Key thing to remember is that if you want to reduce the RNG offset, do not put more than one unit in proximity of the tank at equal distanceIf you want to try to follow the guide closely, reset the map until the Goliath Plus unit is on the same spot as shown in the guide on turn 1. Start off with a combat echelon at HQ and a dummy echelon on each helipad..

Turn 1

The start is the same as always. Note that the Goliath Plus unit is at the bottom this time. So let's review the image of which route to take in this case.

Note

Now that the tank is set to move into one of the red circles shown here, we are going to follow the blue route at the top to get to the supply point this time.

Turn 2a

Do exactly what is shown in the previous image guide, but with a dummy echelon at the top-right.

Turn 2b

Again, make sure your dummy echelon is at least 2 nodes away from the tank and is adjacent to the radar node in the center.

Turn 3a

Now, because the tank blocked the path to the dummy echelon at the bottom helipad, you'll need to take a bit of a detour. In this case, bring your dummy echelon to save a move point.

Turn 3b

We approach the other dummy echelon on the bottom-left.

Turn 3d

Take the dummy echelon to supply the point.

Turn 4a

As usual, move the dummy echelon and combat echelon to start linking up the supply route to HQ. This time, the bottom dummy is the bait for the tank.

Turn 4b

Again keep all echelons at least 2 nodes away from the tank at all times.

Turn 6

Once the route is established, move all echelons out of the tank's area of patrol and wait until the mission is cleared.

Minor Pieces Draw III

Clear Conditions:

Rescue 4 hostage T-dolls within given turns.

Required Squads:

1 Combat [Night] + 1 Dummy

This map has a hidden achievement that requires you to use only 2 echelons to beat the map. It’s relatively easy with your main echelon if you’ve come this far. 

Turn 1a

Start off by swapping with the adjacent hostage T-doll.

Turn 1b

Rescue, then manually extract the hostage T-dolls at the starting helipad, then move up towards the 2nd hostage T-doll.

Turn 2a

Swap with the adjacent T-doll once more as a start.

Turn 2b

Rescue the T-doll and end the turn on the node below the top helipad. We should surround capture it at the end of this turn.

Turn 3a

Spawn a dummy echelon on the helipad at the beginning of the turn.

Turn 3b

Swap with the dummy, then manually rescue the hostage. Also resupply, just as a safety measure.

Turn 3c

Swap back and we are going to swap witht the T-doll to our left.

Turn 3d

Swap, then rescue the T-doll.

Turn 3e

We swap with the dummy echelon once more to manually extract the hostage T-doll.

Turn 4a

Dummy echelon swaps with the hostage T-doll. Finally, rescue it.

Turn 4b

The last thing to do is swap with the combat echelon, then manually extract the last hostage, clearing the mission and earning the achievement reward.

Minor Pieces Draw IV

Clear Conditions:

Kill Boss unit.

Required Squads:

2 Combat

Straight up elimination mission against Agent. She has moderate stats and will take long to deal with, with her special skill summoning other S.F. ringleaders. Recommend high evasion SMG as main tank or throw in a shield tank in the front. For ARs, would recommend self-buffing ones.

Turn 1a

There are two allied dolls, basically for the sole purpose of swapping positions with. Recommend just changing their command to "wait". Spawn two combat echelons. There are no armored units on this map.

Turn 1b

Place a defending force in the front and try to save the health for an echelon that is going to go kill Agent.

Turn 2a

Swap the boss kill echelon all the way with the front of the line, make sure that it's fully supplied.

Turn 2b

Your goal is to get to Agent with the least amount of battles in between. For me, I was lucky enough to get to Agent without any at all. This part is purely RNG dependant, unfortunately. Your routes may vary.

Turn 3

Go and kill Agent. Best of luck.

Survivor

Clear Conditions:

Establish a Supply Route and maintain it for 2 turns.

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 1 Dummy

Map Unlock Condition: Must kill Agent once and Gager twice in chapter 2 maps.

This map is rather strange, in that it requires bit of planning, due to the windows given to you to establish and maintain a supply line being very short. This is guide is clear without Parachute and illumination fairy. S rank is also not possible with this guide’s method.

Turn 1

Start off with a combat echelon, then deploy another.

Turn 2

The yellow nodes you see on the map are the location of the Typhon tanks', which will walk along their sectors in a counter-clockwise rotation. We will avoid them, since it is unlikely to be killed with units we have.

Turn 3

Once the Typhon moves out of the way, enter the next sector.

Turn 4

While we could just move to the next pocket, that is also where the Typhon is going to be the next turn. Therefore we'll stop early and move the 2nd combat echelon so we can deploy a dummy echelon next turn.

Turn 5

If possible, surround capture the helipad at the bottom right map this turn. Additionally, spawn that dummy echelon at the HQ. If you are worried about the tank next to the 2nd combat echelon, it won't attack.

Turn 6

Quickly make your way to the next sector as far as you can go while avoiding combat if possible.

Turn 7

We can only move up this far, since if we go all the way to the supply point, we'd have to face Agent. Agent will be needed to kill the Typhon closest to her for us instead, so we'll wait bit more.

Turn 8

Move the first combat echelon behind the tank and end the turn.

Turn 9

After the tank moves, move all the way to the radar node and take it for this turn.

Turn 10

Next, take the helipad for this turn. We are also waiting for the tank in the adjacent area to make a loop back towards Agent and combat echelon.

Turn 11a

At the beggining of the turn, resupply your combat echelon and move it to left so we can deploy dummy echelon.

Turn 11b

The dummy echelon will move out of the loop and wait a turn, again this is so that we can time the tank's and Agent's movements.

Turn 12a

On turn 12, we make sure that the supply route is ready to go: resupply the combat echelon on the starting location. Then the dummy also moves on the node nearby. This aggros the Agent towards the dummy.

Turn 12b

The combat echelon at the starting helipad moves to the node adjacent to the dummy echelon.

Turn 14a

As you can see, that tank just got yeeted out of orbit thanks to Agent. Redeploy the dummy echelon back on the helipad near the supply point. Now we move in to take out Agent ourselves.

Turn 14b

Once the battle against Agent is over, connect all the routes to the HQ and all that's left is to wait until the mission is cleared.

Chapter III

Last Resort I

Clear Conditions:

Kill all enemy units.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 1 Dummy

This map has a hidden achievement, obtainable if you manage to complete this map with your deployed echelons deprived of ammo.

Turn 1

Start with a combat echelon at full supply moving to one of central helipad.

Turn 2

It is important that you deploy a dummy echelon with NO AMMO. If you don't have one already, just deploy a dummy in any map, then terminate the mission it's in right away.

Turn 3a

Swap the combat echelon and resupply it when there's 5 enemy units left on the map.

Turn 3b

Move as shown to clear the right side of the map.

Turn 3c

Move the dummy echelon closer to the combat echelon.

Turn 4

Swap with the dummy echelon and kill the remaining units. You should have 0 ammo by the end of the mission and get the achievement.

Last Resort II

Clear Conditions:

Establish supply route and maintain it for 5 turns.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 3 Dummies

This map poses lot of challenge for people who wishes to S-clear, or attempting to kill hydra units above. What I present to you is method that is not S-clear but don’t kill hydra, and relying on endless wave of dummy sacrifices. 
For starting location, Starting with helipad nearest to M4 ally unit, place Dummy, MG echelon or anti-armor echelon, Dummy echelon. Then place 3rd dummy echelon on the HQ.

Turn 1a

Swap M4 all the way to the right most helipad like shown above.

Turn 1b

Now MG/anti-armor echelon is going to sweep weak armor units in the front, ending on a node north of M4. This is important that you do so.

Turn 1c

Swap anti-armor echelon with M4 and move dummy echelon as shown above. This is done for manipulating the enemy AI.

Turn 1d

Now except for Dummy echelon nest to M4, retreat all echelons. Again this is to remove RNG for where the enemy units will go. M4 will fight a tank, and with little bit of control, you should be able to win handily. This helps with dealing with less armor units.

Turn 2a

Beginning of 2nd turn we notice that one of tank is threatening the supply route. In order to prevent it from severing it, spawn a sacrificial echelon to satisfy its hunger. Spawn additional dummy echelon at HQ.

Turn 2b

To make all units move towards top left corner we are also going to retreat the dummy echelon that is in the middle. Critical thing to remember: you need to have at least one dummy echelon out of harms way each turn or you will lose the mission.

Turn 3a

We have another tank threatening the supply route, again to fix this issue we are deploying dummy echelon from helipad.

Turn 3b

Drawing aggro away from the supply route is your key priority.

Turn 4a

Now we have hydra unit threatening the supply route on the right side, so we are going to sacrifice the dummy echelon on the HQ as bait.

Turn 4b

Since i have additional space for dummy on the right side i decided to push both dummies up. Only do this if you know one is safe from being run over.

Turn 5a

Repeat the process as needed. Once this turn is over you should be finished.

Survivor

Clear Conditions:

Kill all enemy units.

Required Squads:

2 Combat [Normal and Anti-armor] + 1 Dummy

This map has a mix of regular and armored units, with a ridiculous number of Dinergates at the edge. An AR SMG echelon with AoE skill units or just any echelon with an assigned Airstrike fairy are recommended in order to get past them without any HP loss.

Turn 1

Start with an Anti-armor echelon and take the helipad north of the HQ. Then spawn in a 2nd combat echelon.

Turn 2a

Swap with the 2nd combat echelon, then resupply.

Turn 2b

Go clockwise around the loop then swap back with the 2nd combat echelon. Resupply before ending your turn.

Turn 3

The 2nd combat echelon moves to the helipad at the top end of the map, while the anti-armor echelon moves to the south of the HQ to take another helipad.

Turn 4

The 2nd combat echelon moves to the helipad at the top end of the map, while the anti-armor echelon moves to the south of the HQ to take another helipad.

Turn 5

There's an enemy near the helipad on the top right that needs to be taken care of before moving to the next helipad. You should have plenty of move points to do so.

Turn 6

Don't forget to resupply as you go. Again, repeat the previous step making sure there's no enemy left behind.

Turn 7

Once you cover the last area, you should be all set.

Last Resort IV

Clear Conditions:

Kill Boss unit.

Required Squads:

1 Combat

KEK

Turn 1

There's no easy way out of this one. You have to kill Agent in order to clear this mission. At least it's during the day this time!

Survivor

Clear Conditions:

Take enemy HQ.

Required Squads:

1 Combat + 2 Dummy

This map has a hidden gimmick that lets you clear it, with minimal battles at the low low cost of only 2,250 ammo.  Fighting through all the hydra and potential Tank units is rather impossible for many so we will go with gimmick clear.

Turn 1

We are basically going to ignore the hostage T-doll and operate normally. Get your anti-armor/anti-mine echelon [mostly MG echelons] up once, then spawn a dummy echelon.

Turn 2

Swap the dummy echelon and anti-armor echelon. The dummy echelon then takes the route with "?" nodes on the left.

Turn 3a

Take only the first 2 "?" nodes. Proceed any further and you will enter the threat range. Each node taken will rob you of 750 ammo, but it's a small price to pay, as you can see how it kills all units in the map.

Turn 3a (2)

As you can see we need to hit that final "?" node but if we move up we will make the tank to move on top of it. Just be patient!

Turn 3b

Move the combat echelon up once from the helipad.

Turn 4a

Move all the way up to the last "?" node. You can see that the Hydra units are no more. The tank will attack your dummies, all you have to do is retreat them right away.

Turn 4b

With your last remaining moves, spawn another dummy echelon at the bottom.

Turn 5a

Move the dummy echelon forward after swapping.

Turn 5b

Shift up your combat echelon and spawn a 2nd dummy [the one that retreated earlier].

Turn 6a

To get an extra move, we are going to take the helipad that hostage doll is standing on.

Turn 6b

Move the 2nd dummy above the 1st dummy echelon.

Turn 7a

2nd dummy echelon moves to the next helipad up north.

Turn 7b

Dummy echelon follows up so that it can be taken.

Turn 8

Move up to this specific node, this is the one spot near the enemy HQ that is outside of that Tank's patrol range.

Turn 9

Move to the enemy's HQ and end your turn.

End Game

Clear Conditions:

Kill Boss unit.

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 1 Dummy

Map that is similar to Re-ingnition IV’s mechanic, in that you have to make sure M4 moves towards the top of the map at all times. You don’t have to fight the Hydra in this guide, but still fight some armor units. This is also the map where the speedrun event is held!

Turn 1

Deploy 2 combat echelons from the HQ on your 1st turn, both need to be capable of handling armor units.

Turn 2

Sweep counter clockwise to take out armor units.

Turn 3

Move the 2nd combat echelon up once, then spawn a dummy unit at HQ. Swap back combat echelons back to HQ to resupply as needed.

Turn 4

Once you resupplied the combat echelon, sweep in large half circle once more. Then set the allied M4 unit to "Eliminate"

Turn 5a

1st combat echelon moves back, then swaps all the way back to HQ to retreat.

Turn 5b

Shift all the units down once towards HQ. This removes them all from the Hydras' threat range.

Turn 6

Now all you have to do is keep up with M4, besides her, so that M4 doesn't move to the right, going over the one directional path.

Turn 7

Again move up to match with M4's position.

Turn 8

On turn 8, move the combat echelon up then to side, going to the route that doesn't have a tank in the middle.

Turn 9

From here you are free to choose whether to engage the boss unit either with just the allied M4 [intended], or use your own team to beat the boss, which is a requirement to unlock the hidden map in this chapter.

Survivor

Clear Conditions:

Kill Boss unit.

Required Squads:

2 Combat + 1 Dummy

The goal is to kill the M16 boss, which has different mechanics from the previous one that you had to fight in order to unlock this map. Brief explanations will follow below.

M16 Battle

For more details about this boss, check the Bosses tab of the guide!

Turn 1

Start with a combat echelon at the HQ. Since the map mostly consists of armored units, a RFHG echelon is recommended.

Turn 2

Deploy 2 dummy echelons on both the helipad and the HQ. Combat echelon moves one to the left.

Turn 3

Combat echelon moves one up towards the helipad in order to surround capture next turn.

Turn 4

Because the combat echelon is within the threat range, it needs to be moved up to the helipad, where it's outside of the mine-bots' patrol area. Then move the dummy echelon up once from the HQ.

Turn 5

Now we have to wait for the mine-bots to return to their original position, which will give us time to take a helipad and safely deploy the boss kill echelon.

Turn 6

One more turn of waiting.

Turn 7

Move all the way up using a dummy echelon so that it will surround capture the helipad next turn.

Turn 8a

Turn 8 is where we deploy the combat echelon on the recently acquired helipad. This would be the time to make sure you set your echelon up correctly.

Turn 8b

Swap with the dummy echelon, then go straight to M16.
