10 assassins sent to the nearby United camp. With the United and Dante camps so close together and both sides working to remove the debris, I doubt it would be much trouble for them to blend in as United troops.
Their orders are simply to pretend to be United troops for the time being.

10 more assassins were sent to the United Camp with Dante at Hyperton. Their job is the same as the first. Pretend to be United soldiers until further orders.
The entire Dante army is moving one square north and one square west, stopping at Bajir.

Beginning to build siege equipment for Bajir. More specifically, ladders and a battering ram.

Due to the need to develop a proper strategy so that I don't lose a good portion of my force, Dante is not attacking just yet. We are holding on the edge of the battlefield until I can think of something.
I'm saying this so that you don't assume that we're being inactive and think that you need to go ahead and start the battle.

We have 20 assassins that were given orders to move into Garlic's camp at Hyperton and pose as United troops until further orders are given.
We have 58 assassins total, so that leaves 38 with Dante at Sanguine.
20 of these 38 will be sent to Freelorn Village. Their orders are to attempt to infiltrate the United camp amongst its attack on Freelorn and pose as United troops until further orders are given.

Remaining 18 assassins sent southward to search for the remaining officers. Waiting on orders from Broli before taking action, should they find any officers.

The Dante force is splitting into two groups on the battlefield.
We will charge from the northern side and the southern side and will fold onto the army like a bivalved clam closing on a pearl. We will move quickly in order to try and ambush the unit.
Upon attacking the army, the assassins that were pretending to be United soldiers (this act occurred back when Dante and United were both at Hyperton and camped next to one another) will attempt to get close to Garlic Jr. and strike at him amongst the confusion of the battle. These assassins will do everything in their power to kill Garlic Jr.
Writing up the ambush now.

Other assassins given the order to strike at the other United officers.
Specific order given to ignore Android 16, as I don't think it would be successful considering he's the most active member of United.
Rad, Paragus, Koola, Gokua, and Kollifum are all fair game, though. With Paragus being the second most active, failure to kill him is acceptable. The other four are the emphasized targets, as in Rad, Koola, Gokua, and Kollifum.

Scouts sent to the following locations:
Freelorn (E-4)
E-2
Rad Fort (F-2
F-4
Job is to scout out any significant troop movements in order to prevent being flanked.

Everyone is moving to Monte Cristo from the north.
This includes the regular army and the 1000 catapult troops added earlier.
The formation for the catapults is:
_____________O_O_O_O_O_O
____________O_O_O_O_O_O_
_____________O_O_O_O_O_O
____________O_O_O_O_O_O_
_____________O_O_O_O_O_O
With the lines being their line of fire. Their orders are to basically pound the living daylights out of the fortress until a wall collapses, gate is destroyed, whatever. Once that happens, the Dante army, which will until now be defending the catapults on three sides (except the rear) to protect from flanking and a direct assault by United, will attack.
Heck, we might even keep pounding the fortress even after an opening appears and hold off on a direct assault until a lot of United casualties have occurred.

The army and catapults included have spread out on the field north of Monte Cristo.
They're spreading out to avoid losing several losses by a lucky strike by the catapults.
I figure we have the advantage in terms of environment. The United are all in the Fortress, giving my catapults one location to focus all their fire on. We, on the other hand, have the entire field to spread out and attempt to avoid catapult fire.
The intention is that my men will be so spread out that they can move out of the way to avoid the catapult fire, as I figure they don't have that many to attack me with anyway. In other words, I have a feeling that my men would have to be avoiding only a few different hurling stones at a time.
