Sipli Field (Ace of Aces)
"Sipli Field" is the third mission of the downloadable Ace of Aces mini-campaign for Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation. As in the original mission, the player must assist allied units in breaking through the Estovakian defenses at Sipli.
Objectives
Phase 1
Two of the three operations must be completed:
- (A) Central Assault Unit Support
- Warlock will attack the enemy forces from the center. The player must defend Warlock and destroy all enemy TGTs. The majority of the enemy forces will be across the bridge, and they must be destroyed before they reach Warlock.
- (B) Eastern Separate Unit Support
- Avalanche Squadron and Quox will attack the enemy forces from the east. The player must defend Quox and destroy all TGTs.
- (C) Long Range Artillery Unit Support
- Steel Gunners and Yellow Jacket will attack the enemy forces from the west. The player must defend the Steel Gunners Battalion and destroy all TGTs, including enemy air support and artillery.
Phase 2
After the Mission Update, the player must engage the main enemy force. The centerpiece of the enemy forces is three heavy howitzers labeled "Ogre" which provide ESM and also fire Nimbus missiles at the player. Upon destruction of the second Ogre unit, six members of Strigon Team appear, all flying CFA-44 Nosferatus equipped with ADMM. After the third Strigon is shot down, the remaining ones will become more aggressive, firing an increased amount of ADMMs at shorter intervals. The mission ends when all TGTs are destroyed.
