Beachhead is the first scenario in the OOM-9 campaign. The Trade Federation launches its attack on Naboo. They immediately set out to destroy the planet's offworld communication ability, keeping news of the attack from spreading to Coruscant.

Scenario Instructions

Objectives

• Ensure that OOM-9 survives the mission.
• Destroy the Transmitter at Vis.
• Destroy the Transmitter at New Centrif.
• Destroy the Transmitter at Parrlay.

Hints

1. Your small battalion isn't prepared for a vigorous attack. Seek alternate paths until reinforcements arrive.
2. Be cost-effective in your assault. Battle Droids are weak against buildings. Use beetle troopers and pummels instead.
3. OOM-9 resides in his personal AAT, a powerful armored unit. He is very useful in battle, but he should be removed from the conflict if he takes too much damage.

Players

Player

• Player (Trade Federation): Starts with a few Troopers, Mounted Troopers, Strike Mechs, and OOM-9 himself. The goal is to destroy the three Transmitters.

Enemies

• Vis (Royal Naboo): Has a base to the east, defended by Troopers, Mounted Troopers, and Strike Mechs.
• New Centrif (Royal Naboo): Has a base to the west, similarly defended. The Gate is defended by Light Turrets.
• Parrlay (Royal Naboo): Has a base to the south. This is the most heavily defended town on the map. They have the same units as the other towns, but they also have Mech Destroyers.

Strategy

The gates of New Centrif are guarded by Light Turrets (not present on easy difficulty), and since the player doesn't start with any siege units, they should instead go east, to Vis. Reinforcements of Troopers, Mounted Troopers, and Hvy Destroyer Droids will arrive. The player should take their forces and wipe out the defenders, then destroy the Transmitter.

By going southeast, the player can enter New Centrif by the side, and thus attack the town without having to go through the Gate. Once New Centrif's soldiers are dead and their Transmitter destroyed, the player should head south to Parrlay.

When the player attacks Parrlay, new reinforcements will arrive, consisting of Troopers, Mounted Troopers, Mech Destroyers, and Pummels. Take out Parrlay's Light Turrets with the Pummels, and kill their soldiers with everything else. The Transmitter is located at the back of the base. Once it's down, the player has won.
