The early turns are the dangerous ones: outnumbered and alone, you cannot trade blows evenly. Fight defensively, preserve your strength, and stay intact until reinforcements arrive to turn the tide. Throwing away units before help comes only guarantees there is nothing left to relieve.

Keep the bulk of your command intact. Reinforcements are inbound—survive until they get here.]]></detailedBriefing>

<shortBriefing>Destroy hostile air forces.</shortBriefing>
<detailedBriefing><![CDATA[Your forces have been intercepted by enemy forces, cutting them off before they can complete their original mission. This is an intentional move to stall our operations and weaken our ability to project force. Your mission is to break free from the engagement by destroying at least 33% of the enemy force.

The enemy will press hard to keep you contained, using aggressive maneuvers and potentially overwhelming numbers to delay your advance. Do not get bogged down in a prolonged engagement—focus fire, break their cohesion, and force them into retreat. Once their losses become unsustainable, the path forward will be clear.

There will be no time to secure the battlefield at the end of the engagement, meaning any salvage will be lost. Speed is essential—eliminate the enemy and move out before reinforcements arrive.]]></detailedBriefing>
