Mission and Clear Conditions:

Mission: 

Rescue VHS

AND

Defeat Ouroborus

• 1 Dummy Echelon

Clear Steps

The biggest challenge on this mission is defeating Ouroborus, as she comes with a fairly sizable enemy stack alongside her. If you are struggling with this battle, bring a mixed RF/AR backline to try and remove the backline threats, including her spawned Drones and Jaegers. Outside of Architect, the enemies here are mostly standard SF fare that can be beaten down in the usual manner. 

1.1

Deploy a Combat Echelon, move them to the left one node, then deploy a second Combat Echelon.

2.1

Move the left Echelon up one node. 

3.2

Move the other Echelon to the left one node, then down one node to capture the Heliport. 

3.1

Move the lower Echelon to the left one node. 

3.2

Move the upper Combat Echelon down one node, to the left one node, and up one node.

This will account for weird enemy movements, if the Manticore is on the closed Heliport, or already dead, you can just take the Heliport.

3.3

Deploy a Dummy Echelon on the Command Post. 

4.1

Move the lower Combat Echelon down one node, then to the left two nodes. This will reveal the rest of the map. 

4.2

Continue moving that Echelon up two nodes, then to the left an additional two nodes. This is likely to involve engaging Ouroborus. 

Finally, swap positions with VHS. 

4.3

Move back up and rescue VHS. 

5.1

The Echelon carrying VHS will now move to the right two nodes, down two nodes, right two more nodes, then up and right one node each, and complete the rescue, and the mission.
