After a quick browse through the threads, I didn't really find any other topics that covers this in general, so I figured I might as well start one (after a ton of hours of grief on a couple particular campaign stage). Please don't hold back on throwing in your own stories, tips, questions and griefs as well OTL.

From what I've noticed, you can pretty much throw any type of squadron wherever you want and still earn 3-Medals after a couple tries from Normal Campaigns #9 and below. #10 (which I just finished 100%) and up start to get trickier from there, so that's what I'll chat about for a bit.


10-5 caused me a ton of grief; not only because there's a bazillion different direction panels you have to pray to RNGesus to get right, but it was also super easy to accidentally finish up the stage first, before you're able to finish mopping up all the pests and bosses on the map. Just running through the panels alone 100% correctly happens only on about a rough 10% chance, give or take depending on placements you might gamble on.

To finally nail down the 3-Medals, I had to purposely set up 2-3 of my squads to be purposefully slow, with no more than 450-Speed at max and make certain that the Northernmost squad had both enough firepower to take out the first boss encountered, but die against the final one. The placement of the rest of the team descended from North-to-South in order by speed, from slowest to fastest, with the two fastest squads occupying the same start point at the bottom of the map.




My gawd it was terrible, finally nailing down the correct path numerous times, only to finish the map with the last little bugger sitting in front of my face
