Stage 1: Infantry assault
There are no vehicles at start and one simple objective - assault and secure German artillery positions.
Stage 2: Brecourt Manor
After artillery positions are secured, transport trucks and jeeps arrive. Build a Forward Operating Base or use them for flanking. Secure Brecourt Manor.
Stage 3: Further advancement
If Brecourt Manor is captured — armour vehicles will be at your disposal, two M4 Shermans in particular.
Capture Flak pit and advance to Sainte-Marie-du-Mont.
German side was not expecting this attack, was not prepared and could not repel it.
At the start there is a spawn point and a supply truck near artillery positions.

Do your best to prolong the attack and drain enemy reinforcements.
