T14: Fragment Isles
Maximum Score: 450 pts
150-pt. time limit: 15 days
100-pt. time limit: 30 days
Player CO: Penny
Enemy CO(s): Isabella, Lin, Brenner
Special Condition(s): None
Overview: Control Penny as she takes on three members of the 12th Battalion in
this free-for-all. Take advantage of their in-fighting and capture
Brenner’s HQ with two Dusters and two loaded T-copters. Use
these forces coupled with three Bombers to capture the remaining HQs.
There are a number of ways this strategy can fail, thanks to the fact
Lin and Isabella like to send Dusters and B-copters to the middle,
making this more difficult. At the very least, this guide ensures
that Brenner’s HQ is yours in 11 days. Use your funds advantage to
pummel Isabella and Lin into submission.
For reference, Isabella is Blue, Lin is Yellow, and Brenner is Black.

Day 10:
– Begin capturing Brenner’s HQ.
– Remaining unit movement is at your discretion.
Day 11:
– Finish capturing Brenner’s HQ.
– Remaining unit movement is at your discretion.
– Build Bomber in the southern one of the two northeast airports.
Penny must be loaded in the Bomber built on day 11. This one is used to
destroy the Anti-Air units located near Lin’s HQ. The other units can be used
to capture Isabella’s HQ.
If you want the perfect score, you have only four days to capture the remaining
enemy HQs. Isabella’s HQ can be captured by day 13, and Lin’s HQ can be
captured by day 15.
If you’re simply concerned with finishing the map, capturing Brenner’s HQ
should provide enough funds to rout the other COs.
