[AO46] Question about mission objective of Mission: Battle of Wichita

Post by gf85 »

I wanna what the exact requirement of bonus objective "Capture Boeing Plant" in this mission
Do I have to capture all three bonus hexes or capture one of them is enough?
The mission overview is not clear...
If three hexes are needed that is quite difficult to rush fast enough...any hints?

Use your paratroopers to rush into battle.

Bonus objectives in AO1946 only award a lot of prestige when u capture them. since u have 140k something prestige u can just ignore the bonus objectices.

Thanks for the replies! :D

Even with paratrooper it's too dangerous to let my elite troops caught cross fire behind enemy's line.
I just afraid the bonus objective will be flag of later scenario, if the only award is prestige I think I'll just skip it. Thanks.

Turn on david vs goliath before the mission. The japanese will be wiped out and you can conquer everything yourself. But like the other guys already said, it is just prestige.
Although I try really can use the extra prestige. I mean the AI will lose attack all its airforce to kill my well protected atomic bomber, and when I repair it its 6k! Repair some expensive tanks and cruisers and even 100k might be gone in 2-3 missions.
The bonus ocjetives are not balanced btw. I you have a prestige hero (dont know the enlgish name), which you should have after 200 (?!) battles, but can easily get 50% more.

I think I'll lose more prestige than I would get given the extra strength of enemy.
Do agree that the prestige usage in AO46 is insane...
Landkruisers and Atomic Bomber are still manageable, the most terrible prestige drainer for me is the E series tank...
With ultra low core cost but ultra high prestige cost, it's very easy to neglect how many prestige they can drain up to field and replenish them.
I learn my lesson when I have my prestige -50000 :shock: in a single mission, after this I have my panzer units all downgrade back to panther II...
