tyrspawn Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 What is the last Marine level? I got a minor blue victory after getting a defeat on the mission where you have to meetup army/USMC units at the junction near hims. Pretty anticlimactic ending if that was truly the last level and I didn't just get it because I lost the level (I also see no way to destroy 6 T-72s with 2 javelin rounds and kiowas). Even if I managed to ambush all the tanks at 50 meter range with AT4s I doubt i'd be able to knock them all out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piecekeeper Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 You will get an "end of campaign" screen and the result over the whole campaign when the campaign is finished. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryujin Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 ********SOPOILERIFIC!!**************** The linkup is not the last level... if I remeber from way back when I played it, you just might have to do it old skool and use some M136s/LAWs. They still work fine. Plus don't you get more than two javelin rounds out of all those recon strykers? Don't you get an M1 too? The irony is I have a ton of pics from that link up mission because I was going to do an AAR. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2694/4114340754_03ff2432d2_o.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2662/4114339364_7909a8ebf1_o.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2517/4113570857_6b5f98d0cd_o.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2791/4114340630_e71eef46af_o.jpg Was just sitting in my fraps folder for exactly one year from today! talk about a crazy coincidence. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2679/4114333160_837abca256_o.jpg 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew that I was going to get attacked by armor AS SOON as I saw only two strykers had 1 javelin each. I think even if I hit the t-72s at close range and didn't miss with the LAWs/AT4s (Which is unlikely) i'd still have some trouble taking out the T72s. There is like 6 of them. Can kiowa rocket spam knock out a T72? I think each one has 8 rockets. I don't think it would be able to in real life. How many more levels are there beyond that? BTW my M1s were killed 5 levels ago or so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryujin Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 There are a few more levels. Use M136s, I killed two of the tanks with those, especially at short range with a top attack from a building. It won't be easy but I think it can be done. Kiowa FFAR will not kill tanks, but the .50 does OK against BMPs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just replayed the level and 5 seconds of not looking at my teams resulted in them wasting all of their javelins and AT-4s on insurgents in a building. grr ::pulls hair out:: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryujin Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Well, that's why its a good idea to keep those 4 M1A1 FEPs in good condition. I lost 2 over the campaign and one had seen better days, but if you look after them, they're invaluable throughout the campaign. You get to avoid moments like that. However, successfully linking with the Army will have some benefits for the last few missions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So... I finally managed to pull through with a tactical victory after replaying the mission 5-6 times. The Most of the t-72s took 3+ AT-4 shots, from the sides and rear at sub 50 meters. Such a useless weapon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slug88 Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Too bad the syrians have a love affair with reverse slope new generation ATGMs in the USMC campaign. It's all a question of tactics. Many people, myself included, got to that point of the campaign with most or all of their M1's still functional, so it most definitely can be done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a useless weapon. Your guys must just suck. I've have pretty good experiences with the M136, in the case of that scenario, a couple of tanks were killed with 1 to 2 hits from almost directly above using the buildings. In another scenario I also got a 175m 1 shot side kill on a T-72. With T-72s it seemed I only had any real trouble from the front (though overall I don't use too many M136s, but they seem to work alright if there isn't ERA). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
