'''Beachhead''' is the eighth level in the [[Battalion Wars]] campaign.

== Intel ==
''Our focus of operations now shifts to the [[Dune Sea]]. The [[Xylvania]]n air fleet is moving en masse to control the [[Nerocite]] fields inland, and our outpost at Fort Omaha will bear the brunt of the invasion spearhead. Reinforce them and repel the invaders!''

After [[Countess Ingrid]]'s surprise attack on both [[Western Frontier|Frontier]] and [[Tundran Territories|Tundran]] forces in the previous mission, it's clear now who the real culprits are. You must defend Fort Omaha from the [[Xylvania]]n assault!

In this mission, your forces must defend the [[Western Frontier|Frontier]] outpost in the [[Dune Sea]]. Roll your [[Recon (Battalion Wars)|Heavy Recon]] out to the fort, and use the few minutes of uneasy peace to strategically organize your units around and inside the fort. The [[Xylvania]]ns are intent on capturing Fort Omaha, so you'll need to prevent them from reaching the building. Send a few infantry into the bunkers in front of the fort, place most of your forces outside the base, and leave a few inside to guard the flag. It is a good idea to defend the flag yourself, as the other Frontier units are not as concerned about it. Stave off the enemy [[Air Transport]]s, and watch out for [[Countess Ingrid|Ingrid]]'s {{BWs|Bomber}}s!

The mission is completed when the Bombers are destroyed, though the flag must not be captured nor the AA Vehicle destroyed before then.
