TACTICAL SIGNIFIGANCE
Hai Shi Dao defenders had been successful at holding the invading PRF divisions to the coastal lowlands for severals weeks, but limited reinforcements and the distraction of a brewing insurgency in the North had resulted in the southern defenders being destroyed or pushed back to Hong Shan Military Base. Hong Shan secured the southern access passage to the midland Zhong Huan plains, losing the base would result in the Pacific Rim Forces having unimpeded access to the heart of island. Hai Shi Dao made their final stand to contain the invaders or risk letting the conflict spread to the whole of the island nation.
MISSION PROFILE
Hong Shan Military base is one of the most unbalanced maps available in the LOC mapset. The limitation of 3v3 teams hampers the defending team from being able to successfully engage repel attacking forces prior to their arrival at the top base.
The basic layout of the map consists of numerous deep canyons, all of which converge towards the top of the map where the main defense objective base is located. The canyon walls are so high that it is difficult to effectively target artillery over them due to angle of fire issues.
The defensive objective base has four buildings within its boundaries, the destruction of each will debit a set value from the defender side Sortie Point total. The schematic below details the point values and locations for each building.
Defender Objective: Eliminate attacking enemy VTs, deprive them of Sortie Points and capture bases, prevention of defense objective base building destruction.
Attacker Objective: Eliminate defending enemy VTs, destruction of the defense objective base buildings.
Possible Non-VT Targets
Main base buildings totaling 250pts (100+50+50+50)
**Author Note: My assumption is that the point values for the buildings assume a 5v5 team structure, which would allow for greater sortie points at the start of the mission, lessening the strategic value of the buildings.

| This mission is very difficult to play as Defender on due to the limitation of 3v3 players and the number of choices available for attacker routes. |
