Burter:
We've charged the hole in the Monte Cristo wall. Here is how our army is formed up. The thousand catapult troops have taken up weapons and are at the front lines. They are the first rows of the formation and will be the first to hit the wall. Since they're effectively useless with us charging, I figure that having them at the front will be effective. They're expendable, and the large amount of them will help to push the army into the gap in the wall. This way, the troop losses that occur will be in their numbers, rather than our actual foot soldiers being the first ones in and being killed by the defenses. If this doesn't make sense at all, let me know, because I want to make sure you understand what I'm saying here.
Snipers will also be moving in to kill soldiers on the walls.
After the catapult troops, the formation will have the rest of the army pushing to get through the gap. Spec Ops will fly up to the top of the walls immediately near the gap in the wall and secure a perimeter at the top of the walls while the other forces attempt to push through the gap. If need be, using their flying ability, they will carry snipers and artillery to the top of the walls where they can help thin out the troops on the ground.
