Quote:However, another factor to consider here is "what are our chances of saving a spot we don't target with our ground forces". If we can save one without a bomb, then we can freezer bomb the hotel, and even better, we can shift the forces we've got there (also Smith and Grenda) to another area, where they can do more good.
I didn't overlook this factor, I merely take the worst case scenario view that we can't or at least not without some serious losses at this point.
Reason is the deployement in Phase 2 called for 4 bataillons to deploy near the university, stadium and North of the Reecycling zone (1,1 and 2 respectively). The fact these position have been overtaken mean it failled. (I really hope this is due to our batailons being delayed or redeployed or not making it in time rather than being wiped out).
I'm kind of planning around the objective of terminating this situation quickly while cutting our losses a much as possible here.
That said if we can reinforce the and retake the University and Stadium with ordonary troop that'd be great, sure.
Reinforcing the seems the most realistic option to spare ourselves one freeze bomb, depending on how many forces we have operational and how quickly they can make it
The university is an unknown, I just fear that even if e can retake it, combat would cause the oss of some precious data and equipemen. (.. civilians if there's any left alive at this point but that's secondary :p )
That said even if we can I would still like to make the point of Enderfisting the hotel zone rather than Freeze bombing it.
Why ? Because if we can save one bombardement worth of Freeze bombs, The Deathman can use it to acomplish the mission Rheynar gave it in the same day. I don't know why he wants the Region 1 airstrip dealth with now but I'm gonna choose to believehe's got a darn good reason for it nd the sooner it's done, the better.
