Artillery Batteries

Enemy artillery

Enemy gun positions on the southern front, wrecked by the crawler battalions after the first engagement.

Story so far

As part of consolidating the southern border, Tran's 102nd Bulwark Battalion and Boomer's 106th Bloody Leeches wreck the remaining enemy artillery batteries and fill the abandoned positions with Fill Trench Scroll charges before returning to their own trenches.

Removing the guns is what allows the two battalions to redeploy — Boomer taking most of the 106th north to reinforce Florin while Tran holds the south with the newly flipped Prism Kingdom troops.

Role

Enemy fire support destroyed to secure the crawlers' southern flank.
